<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">So, instead of putting font files within Kimchi project, we have to use a package. From the list of icons used to build this Fontello.ttf file, only Font Awesome has a Fedora Package. The problem is that this font uses
trademarked icons such as Windows, Spotify, Skype, Facebook, Twitter and other brands when you download it, not sure if they removed from their RPM.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">We would also have to provide a service that exposes the TTF and OTF files in the same URL, protocol and port that Kimchi is running, something like
<a href="https://localhost:8001/fonts/font-awesome.ttf">https://localhost:8001/fonts/font-awesome.ttf</a> for instance.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">As for TTF and OTF support, according to this support table, we got all A-grade browsers:
<a href="http://caniuse.com/#feat=ttf">http://caniuse.com/#feat=ttf</a><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">The same goes for Open Sans font and an alternative to Traditional Chinese and Simplified Chinese from Adobe called Source Han Sans:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><a href="https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages/open-sans-fonts/overview/">https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages/open-sans-fonts/overview/</a><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">The other solution for our icons would be export each glyph we want to use in SVG format (and keep font-awesome license within). It seems that this is ok with Font-Awesome but not with the other fonts available in Fontello.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">So, for now I’m removing all font files from [wok] branch and I’ll submit a patch later.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">What are your thoughts? Any advice?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
