Building

Pre-built font binaries
----
The installable font resources (font binaries) are not part of the source files.
The latest version of the font binaries is 1.005 (April 4th 2015).
Requirements
----
For building binary font files from source, installation of the
is necessary. The AFDKO tools are widely used for font development today, and are part of most font editor applications.
Building the fonts
----
The key to building OpenType fonts is *makeotf*, which is part of AFDKO. Information and usage instructions can be found
by executing *makeotf -h*.
In this repository, all necessary files are in place for building the OpenType fonts. For example, build a binary OTF font
for the full-width version like this, which also includes a post-process for inserting a "stub" 'DSIG' table:
% makeotf -f cidfont.ps -r -ch UnicodeAll-UTF32-H
% sfntedit -a DSIG=DSIG.bin CSSFWOrientationTest.otf
% sfntedit -f CSSFWOrientationTest.otf
That is all.
