Suggesting a new font
To add a new font, you can submit a GitHub pull request through a forked repository. Your pull request should:
- Include a new font file in WOFF2 format.
- Add your font to
PowerlineFonts.css,preview.htmlandREADME.md(might use Transfonter to help with the CSS). - Once merged, send another pull request, I might forget, that updates all
https://cdn.rawgit.com/in this README to the latest commit SHA-1. You can do that in the original Pull Request if it gets rebased (merge and sqashes would not work in that case).
Converting to WOFF2
There are various methods, including:
-
Using FontForge:
