I am creating a "dot matrix" Kannada font. I try to import the SVG file for a character in font forge, but its not importing in the "dot matrix" style, its getting imported as a plain line. The SVG file works perfectly when opened in image viewer with dots.
I found a work-around for this by opening the SVG file in "Libre Office Draw" > right click on the image > break. Then again the save the image as SVG. The problem in this method is it presents a square box for all of the dots, when i import in the font-forge, which i need to remove.
Is there any solution to this problem, where i can directly import the SVG file to font-forge instead of the workaround.
Any help is appreciated.
