# Files used by FontForge

~/.FontForge
  FontForge creates this directory the first time it starts up. It contains various files FontForge uses to hold context across invocations.

  ~/.FontForge/prefs
    This file contains user preference settings.
  ~/.FontForge/Encodings.ps
    If there are any user defined encodings they reside in this file.
  ~/.FontForge/autosave
    This directory contains the files used to drive the crash-recovery process. When FontForge is running there will be one file in this directory corresponding to each font loaded into FontForge that has been modified. These files will contain all changed glyphs.

    When FontForge exits normally, this directory will be cleaned up and there should be no files in it.

/usr/local/share -- Assuming you installed FontForge on /usr/local, otherwise substitute $PREFIX/share for "/usr/local/share" in the following.
/usr/local/share/fontforge/*.ui
  These files contain translations of the ui for various locales.
/usr/local/share/fontforge/*.cidmap
  "Encoding" files for Adobe's cid formats. You can pull down a compressed archive from here.
/usr/local/share/doc/fontforge/*.html
  Optional location for online documentation. You can pull down a compressed archive from here.
