One of the unique features of TransType Pro is an integrated macro
programming language. With this feature you can program repeated tasks,
define custom font transformations, and integrate TransType Pro into a
font development system that may include other tools.
Macro programs in TransType Pro are written in the well-known and well-
documented Python programming language. In addition to support of
Python TransType Pro provides a set of classes and variables that open all
the TransType Pro data structures to the programming interface.
Please note that this chapter covers only the very basic features of
TransType Pro macro programming. We will be providing more
information, specifications and sample programs on our web site
(
