# Helper script to merge several Noto fonts in a single TTF file.
#
# The "Noto Sans" font (https://www.google.com/get/noto) only includes a subset
# of all the available glyphs in the Noto fonts. This scripts uses
# "merge_noto.py" from the Noto Tools package to add other scripts, like Arabic,
# Devanagari or Hebrew.
#
# "merge_noto.py" originally merges the fonts by region. However it was adjusted
# to merge "all" the fonts in a single file, like done by "merge_fonts.py". The
# reason to use "merge_noto.py" instead of "merge_fonts.py" is that
# "merge_noto.py" merges regular and bold fonts, which are both needed in
# Nextcloud. "merge_fonts.py" only merges regular fonts, and adjusting it to
# handle bold fonts too would have been more work than adjusting
# "merge_noto.py".
#
# Please note that, due to technical limitations of the TTF format (a single
# file can not have more than 65535 glyphs) the merged file does not include any
# Chinese, Japanese or Korean glyph (the Noto CJK files already use all the
# slots). In fact, it seems that it can not include either all the glyphs from
# all the non CJK Noto fonts, so it merges only those predefined in the
# "merge_fonts.py" script (as it is a larger set than the original one in
# "merge_noto.py").
#
# Also please note that merging the fonts is a slow process and it can take a
# while (from minutes to hours, depending on the system).
#
# To perform its job, the script requires the "docker" command to be available.
#
# The Docker Command Line Interface (the "docker" command) requires special
# permissions to talk to the Docker daemon, and those permissions are typically
# available only to the root user. Please see the Docker documentation to find
# out how to give access to a regular user to the Docker daemon:
# https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/linux/linux-postinstall/
#
# Note, however, that being able to communicate with the Docker daemon is the
# same as being able to get root privileges for the system. Therefore, you must
# give access to the Docker daemon (and thus run this script as) ONLY to trusted
# and secure users:
# https://docs.docker.com/engine/security/security/#docker-daemon-attack-surface

# Currently the fonts in the released package** (apparently from 2017-10-25) are

# However, the fonts in the Git repository, although not released yet, are all
# using 1000 units per em already, so those are the ones merged.

# noto-fonts in Git and snapshots of Git (like the package used) have a
# subdirectory for each font, but "merge_noto.py" expects to find all the fonts
# in a single directory, so the structure needs to be "flattened".
#
# Hinted fonts* adapt better to being rendered in different sizes. The full
# package in https://www.google.com/get/noto/ includes only unhinted fonts
# (according to its name**, I have not actually verified the fonts themselves),
# while the individual fonts listed below in the page are a mix of hinted and
# unhinted fonts. However, the Git directory has hinted versions of all fonts,
# so those are the ones merged (maybe there is a good reason not to merge hinted
# fonts, but seems to work :-P).
