thaifonts-scalable is a collection of Thai scalable fonts available
2
in free licenses. Its goal is to provide fonts that conform to
3
existing standards and recommendations, so that it can be a reference
4
implementation.

6
So, the fonts have to be modified from their original versions as
7
needed, according to following references:
8
  - Recommendation for Thai font design, from the National Font Project
9
  - Adobe Glyph naming convention
10
  - Microsoft Typography
11
  - Common practice for Thai Windows fonts

So, you need it in generating actual fonts. Automatic scripts for
15
building fonts with Makefile's are also provided, so that usual steps
16
still apply:
17
  $ ./configure [options]
18
  $ make
19
  # make install
20
You can choose target font formats to generate by applying --enable-*
21
options to the configure script. (Only TrueType is generated by default.)
22
And for each format, you can specify install directory using --with-*dir=
23
configure options. Please try `./configure --help' for the full list
24
of all available options.
