Minimal script to subset and compress Japanese fonts for web use
- You have Poetry installed.
Run poetry install to install dependencies.
First, create a src/ directory and put the font files you want to subset there.
Then run poetry run ./subset to subset the font files or poetry run ./compress to compress the font files.
Note
Note that by default the subsets include:
- all single-byte characters in Shift_JIS except control characters.
- all double-byte characters in Shift_JIS except JIS level-2, level-3 and level-4 kanji.
You can edit chars.txt to include or exclude characters you want.
