Template Fonts

[maxkurze1]

Some templates require specific fonts. Even the default resignation-logo expects Open Sans to be available.
Resignation needs a way to make sure required fonts are available.

Either:

• providing a large number of "default" fonts for every template during generation

or:

• let packages specify which fonts they need (e.g. selected from Google fonts) and download them automatically

Maybe partial clone of

https://github.com/google/fonts

into a common font dir, that is always updated to have at least the necessary fonts for the current template

TODO: does a cache dir like $XDG_CACHE_HOME/resignation/fonts work with Typst?

[maxkurze1]

Download works with:

git clone --depth=1 --no-checkout --filter=blob:none https://github.com/google/fonts/

and

<font> = no spaces, all lower

git sparse-checkout set --no-cone '/**/<font>/*.ttf'

But most (if not all) of these fonts are variable fonts and typst still cannot work with them (see here) ... so they must be preprocessed to generate all variants that the template needs

[maxkurze1]

This is partially blocked by typst not supporting variable fonts (and google/fonts only contains variable ones):
