opentype.js is an open source JavaScript library that can parse font information from the source, meaning the font files themselves.

The library supports OpenType and TrueType fonts, allowing developers to read data like:

- font glyph paths

- font glyph points

- font metrics

- kerning details

Besides these, the library also supports OpenType (glyf) shapes, PostScript (cff) shapes, and composite glyphs.

Once these details exported from the font, they can be modified in JavaScript and optionally written back to a font file. This allows developers to create new font files using JavaScript alone.

opentype.js works with both client-side (browsers) and server-side (Node.js) environments.

What is new in this release:

  • Fix issues with exporting/subsetting TrueType fonts.
  • Improve validness of exported fonts.
  • Empty paths (think: space) no longer contain a single closePath command.
  • Fix issues with exporting fonts with TrueType half-point values.
  • Expose the internal byte parsing algorithms as opentype._parse.

What is new in version 0.4.9:

  • Fix issues with exporting/subsetting TrueType fonts.
  • Improve validness of exported fonts.
  • Empty paths (think: space) no longer contain a single closePath command.
  • Fix issues with exporting fonts with TrueType half-point values.
  • Expose the internal byte parsing algorithms as opentype._parse.

What is new in version 0.4.7:

  • Fix issues with exporting/subsetting TrueType fonts.
  • Improve validness of exported fonts.
  • Empty paths (think: space) no longer contain a single closePath command.
  • Fix issues with exporting fonts with TrueType half-point values.
  • Expose the internal byte parsing algorithms as opentype._parse.

Requirements:

  • JavaScript enabled on client side
  • Node.js for server-side environments
