IMPORTANT UPDATE Don’t use webfontmaker. Glyphs 2 can write webfonts out of the box. I will leave this up here for reference, but it is not supported anymore. The installation instructions are outdated. If you cannot get it to work, please download Glyphs 2 or use FontSquirrel. ABOUT webfontmaker.sh takes any number of PS-flavored OTF files and creates corresponding TTF (unhinted and autohinted), EOT (unhinted and autohinted), (PS-flavored) WOFF and SVG. Running the script again will overwrite all previous output. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 1. Install FontForge and ttfautohint: - Install Xcode from the App Store. - Run Xcode and confirm the additional installs it needs. - Xcode > Preferences > Downloads > install 'Command Line Tools'. - Install the latest version of XQuartz from http://xquartz.macosforge.org/landing/ - If the XQuartz installer seems stalled at "Preparing installation", force quit the installer, restart your Mac, and try again. - Install Homebrew in Terminal: ruby -e "$(curl -fsSkL raw.github.com/mxcl/homebrew/go)" brew install https://raw.github.com/ummels/homebrew/fontforge/Library/Formula/fontforge.rb brew install ttfautohint brew doctor brew linkapps 2. Install sfntly: svn co http://sfntly.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ /Applications/sfntly/ cd /Applications/sfntly/java/ ant 3. Install sfnt2woff: - Download sfnt2woff ('spline font to WOFF') for OS X from http://people.mozilla.com/~jkew/woff/ (hint: opt-click the 'precompiled version for Mac OS X'). - Move sfnt2woff into the Applications folder. - In the Terminal, you enter: chmod +x /Applications/sfnt2woff mkdir /usr/local/bin/ sudo ln -s /Applications/sfnt2woff /usr/local/bin/ USAGE INSTRUCTIONS - Create your own Meta.xml or use the one provided in this repository. More Info: http://www.w3.org/TR/WOFF/ - Put Meta.xml, webfontmaker.sh and any number of OTF files in the same folder. - In Terminal, navigate into that folder, then type: sh webfontmaker.sh - or use a x.xxx version number as parameter: sh webfontmaker.sh 2.302 - If no version number is present, the script assumes 1.001.
