Description Daniel J. 2010-01-25 19:40:00 UTC
Heuristica is a font by Andrey Panov based on the "Adobe Utopia" font that was released to the TeX Users Group under a liberal license. It is distributed under the terms of the OFL.

Comment 3 Daniel J. 2010-01-31 20:14:20 UTC
Upon further reflection, since OpenOffice < 3.2 can't handle OTF fonts, and since Andrey Panov has put so much effort into hinting the TrueType fonts, perhaps it would be better to support the TTF instead of the OTF.
Comment 4 Daniel J. 2010-02-16 13:37:44 UTC
Heuristica 0.2.1 has been released.

Why not both? I would suggest to install the ttf by default and add otf toggled by a useflag.

Committed to tree as media-fonts/heuristica-0.2.1. It installs ttf, otf and type1 versions. Thanks for the report and the ebuild :)
