This is so that you can put Outlines in your PDF – I used it for updating my Drivethrupg Mneme Variant combat Rules.
##http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/focal/man1/pdfoutline.1.html
##Go to https://github.com/eugmes/fntsample and go to Download and click on the release Pages for the latest version https://github.com/eugmes/fntsample/releases download source code
##Unzip or Extract the source code and open the terminal in the folder
#In Terminal:
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
## Take note of Building and because you will really have to Install the libraries from the following cairo, fontconfig, FreeType2, GLib, Pango, gettext, CMake, and Unicode blocks.
$ sudo apt install cmake
$ sudo apt-get install fontconfig
$ git clone https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/pango.git
$ sudo apt install pangocairo
$ sudo apt-get install libcairo2-dev
$ sudo apt-get install libpango1.0-dev
## Check the error code and simply google the errors- select the text and then google the error for the correct library installation command.
## Open this link: https://unicode.org/Public/UNIDATA/Blocks.txt Right Click n the page > Save As > Save in same Folder of Build
## make sure blocks.txt is in same folder
$ cmake .. -DUNICODE_BLOCKS=/Blocks.txt
$ make
$ make install
## On terminal type pdfoutline you will be given the format for outline creation found in http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/focal/man1/pdfoutline.1.html

##recommend the following use a spreadsheet to separate the Outline columns – Levels and Pages and Outline text. Replace spaces with underscore.
