"UsesFont" "Times New Roman", "Arial", ... FIXME should we use the filename instead? is there some other unique way to identify fonts?
Unrelated to this commit, but regarding fonts, FYI there is a unique identifier inside TrueType/OpenType fonts, usually generated randomly by the software writing the font. However font names may be adequate.
hmm, so "Arial" on win32 will have a different one than on macos ?
Pretty much, still would be better use the font family so people with saner replacements can use their superior fonts instead the ugly ones...
I doubt a subtitle decoder will use a tag from the container to decide which font(s) to use. The tag is more intended to keep track of dependancies without having to look into codec specific data. Like for example in the case of an application deciding what fonts to include in an uploaded file.
