libgraphite2-doc binary package in Ubuntu Focal amd64
Graphite is a system that can be used to create and use "smart fonts" capable
of displaying writing systems with various complex behaviors, such as:
contextual shaping, ligatures, reordering, split glyphs, bidirectionality,
stacking diacritics and complex positioning.
.
This library was designed and developed by the NRSI (Non-Roman Script
Initiative) within SIL International (www.sil.org) to act as a complement to
other smart font rendering technologies with limited practical local
extensibility. Its purpose is to help meet the needs of a very large number
of "minority language" communities for local extensibility of complex script
behaviors.
.
The behavior of the rendering engine for a given writing system is specified
through extra tables added to a TrueType font. These tables are generated by
compiling a GDL (Graphite Description Language) source file into a font using
grcompiler.
