Fonts packaging has its particularities; this page is intended as a one-way stop for the new fonts packager or reviewer.
 
 
 
== Finding material to work on ==
 
If you'd like to help beef up Fedora fonts offerings, but do not know where to start, our [[SIGs/Fonts/Triaging|  triaging]]  section lists the [[SIGs/Fonts/Triaging/L10N|  wishes]]  of our language teams, fonts waiting for a [[SIGs/Fonts/Triaging/Pipeline#wishes|  packager]] , and font packages waiting for a
[[SIGs/Fonts/Triaging/Pipeline#review-needed|  reviewer]] .
 
== Rules ==
 
Our general font packaging policy is described [[SIGs/Fonts/Packaging/Policy|  there]] .
 
== Plumbing tips ==
 
=== Spec template ===
 
Fonts packaging is often viewed as "easy". A fonts spec file is certainly never very long. However, given the same questions get asked over and over again on Fedora lists, it seems this is not the case. To help new fonts packagers or reviewers, we've published an [[SIGs/Fonts/Packaging/SpecTemplate|  annotated fonts spec template]] .
 
=== Fontconfig rules ===
 
Fontconfig is awesome, but can not always make all the right choices by itself. Visit our  [[SIGs/Fonts/Packaging/Fontconfig|  fontconfig page]] and learn how to give it some hints.
