Branch: CURRENT, Version: 2.24.2nb3, Package name: ja-vflib-lib-2.24.2nb3, Maintainer: tech-pkg-ja

VFlib is the Japanese vector font library, supporting TrueType, Zeit, JG, and
BDF fonts. The Watanabe-vector font(pkgsrc/fonts/watanabe_vfont) is used by
default for mincho(min) and gothic(goth). You can use your own fonts by
installing them (/usr/share/font is recommended) and adding them to
${PREFIX}/lib/VFlib/vfontcap. See ${PREFIX}/lib/VFlib/doc/man.ps or the
website for more details (in Japanese).

This port supports the FreeType library. Freetype makes use of hinting
information in TrueType font files so that clearer output is possible.
To use Freetype with TrueType fonts, simply modify
${PREFIX}/lib/VFlib/vfontcap as follows:
1. Change `truetype' to `freetype', then
2. Add .ttf or .ttc to the font file path.
For example:

# Before...
r-ricoh-ttw-hg-mincho-l-pro|Ricoh TrueTypeWorld HG Mincho L PRO:\
:ft=truetype:\
:ff=/usr/local/lib/dp/font/truetype/hgrmlpsj:

# After...
r-ricoh-ttw-hg-mincho-l-pro|Ricoh TrueTypeWorld HG Mincho L PRO:\
:ft=freetype:\
:ff=/usr/local/lib/dp/font/truetype/hgrmlpsj.ttf:

Add SHA512 digests for distfiles for print category

Problems found locating distfiles:
	Package acroread7: missing distfile AdobeReader_enu-7.0.9-1.i386.tar.gz
	Package acroread8: missing distfile AdobeReader_enu-8.1.7-1.sparc.tar.gz

Otherwise, existing SHA1 digests verified and found to be the same on
the machine holding the existing distfiles (morden).  All existing
SHA1 digests retained for now as an audit trail.
