It looks like Font::TTF::Name is what you want.	[reply]

I can't be sure but Font::TTF::Name looks like what you not. (No sarcasm, it's not entirely clear that this will do what is required, it appears to be part of an Awfully Big Ball of Mud). On a side note you're bigger trouble is with fonts whose files are named things like cr___i.ttf As most modern TTF appear to be. Originally posted as a Categorized Answer.	[reply]
