<h3>Description</h3>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
RInfo contains all names, numbers, URL's, values, etc. that would otherwise clutter up the font object. You don't have to create a RInfo object yourself, RFont makes one when it is created. In FontLab the RInfo data is tunneled to the appropriate places in the FontLab font. In UFO land the data ends up in info.plist. In all implementations RInfo doesn't check the validity of the entries, it just provides storage or access to them. It is likely that the attributes of RInfo are extended in the future.
