I went looking for a missing (not in the book) font
What is ridiculous is the pricing: $30 per font face or $120 for a standard set of normal, bold, italic,italic_bold |

That is what I do when I need international glyphs (I work for a commercial publishing house). I embed DejaVu with an attribution in the colophon text. The attribution is not necessary as far as I can tell, but it's a nice thing to do

A better font is actually Charis SIL and it is free to use to embed.

Is any of this moving forward? Or did the discussion that Calibre might do it or be made to do it kill the momentum? We don't use Calibre for production--although I adore it for our cataloging--so I'd be interested in this. Can someone advise, if they're actively working on it? I can't code for beans (in Python or whatever), but if I could assist some other way...? Hitch |

I am working on it. I cant say if my efforts will succeed or not at this point.
If/when it is done, you are welcome to test it. |

No, it will be part of the calibre conversion pipeline.

If if appears as part of the calibre source code, it should be relatively simple to convert to a stand-alone tool.
