How to build a fontconfig bundle for adding arbitrary fonts to headless chrome independent of the OS. This is specifically useful for deploying headless chrome to AWS lambda where it is necessary to include fonts for rendering CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) characters into the deployed bundle.

Building fontconfig

Start up a lambda-like docker container:

docker run -i -t -v /tmp:/var/task lambci/lambda:build /bin/bash

Install some dependencies inside the container:

yum install gperf freetype-devel libxml2-devel git libtool -y

easy_install pip

Integrating GitBook with JSDoc to Document Your Open Source Project

Introduction

Good documentation should include two distinct elements - a Guide and an API:

  1. The Guide builds concepts, providing examples, etc.

GitBook is well suited to

A set of instructions on how to fix the harfbuzz + Infinality issue and restoring good-looking, Infinality-like font rendering.

Disclaimer: Please follow this guide being aware of the fact that I'm not an expert regarding the things outlined below, however I made my best attempt. A few people in IRC confirmed it worked for them and the results looked acceptable.

Attention: After following all the steps run gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders --update-cache as root, this prevents various gdk-related bugs that have been reported in the last few hours. Symptoms are varied, and for Cinnamon the DE fails to start entirely while for XFCE the icon theme seemingly can't be changed anymore etc.

Check the gist's comments for any further tips and instructions, especially if you are running into problems!
