fontconfig and config/type.xml

Post by naoliv »

Hi!

If ImageMagick is compiled with fontconfig support, is it necessary to have config/type.xml installed? Or at least, can this part be removed from it?

Code: Select all

<typemap>
   <include file="type-ghostscript.xml" />
</typemap>
The doubt is if ImageMagick will find the system fonts if using fontconfig (and thus making type.xml or at least type-ghostscript.xml unnecessary).

Thank you!

You can remove type-ghostscript.xml but be sure to remove its reference in type.xml.
