Omega and OpenType Fonts

Résumé

The time has come for Omega to break its bounds with TFM/VF fonts and move forward to font formats of the "real world." Our choice of candidate of font format for Omega is the OpenType font format. In this talk we start by describing the four-step process of switching to OpenType. Then we compare the information contained in TFM/VF with the one of these fonts, and comment the necessary conversion of TeX/Omega fonts into the new format. Finally, we give an almost complete list of TrueType and OpenType tables and discuss their possible interest and modality of use, in the Omega context.
