Severity: wishlist
CMap is needed to convert a certain charater code of a certain charsets
in a certain encoding, to its CID, Character IDentifier, which is
used to access CIDFont. This technology is provided by Adobe.
The CMaps i intend to package are also released by Adobe, and their

This is not DFSG-free, but permits redistribution, so i think
i can put into Debian non-free.
FYI, they are downloaded from:
ftp://ftp.oreilly.com/pub/examples/nutshell/cjkv/adobe/
BTW, i'm planning of Debian Font Manager, which provides comprehensive
centrally-controlled font managing system. gs-cjk that i've already
ITPed and these cmaps and sort of cidfont-installer that i'll ITP near the
futhre all depend on it in my plan. It is under development, so i need
some more time to upload.
