A built dump of a working fontforge/ttfautohint brew install that works with grunt-webfont
Fontforge has problems working with grunt-webfont on some systems due to incompatible newer versions in the brew repository. This is a working compiled set of brew Cellar folders which can be copied into your brew folder. These versions were compiled on Mac OS X mavericks on an intel iMac.
To install:
-
Checkout this repo:
git clone [email protected]:grahamgilchrist/macos-compiled-fontforge.git
-
Install fontforge and ttfauthint via brew to establish folders in the brew cellar:
brew install fontforge ttfautohint
-
Move the folders from this repo over the installed versions:
rm -rf $(brew --prefix)/Cellar/fontforge rm -rf $(brew --prefix)/Cellar/ttfautohint mv macos-compiled-fontforge/fontforge $(brew --prefix)/Cellar/fontforge mv macos-compiled-fontforge/ttfautohint $(brew --prefix)/Cellar/ttfautohint
-
Re-establish the symlinks via brew:
brew link ttfautohint fontforge
-
Check the install is working:
brew info ttfautohint fontforge
- ttfautohint should list:
ttfautohint: stable 1.3 (bottled), HEAD
/usr/local/Cellar/ttfautohint/0.97 (8 files, 172K)
- fontforge should list:
fontforge: stable 20150430 (bottled)
