GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
|
||||
Version 2, June 1991
|
||||
|
||||
Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
|
||||
51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor,
|
||||
Boston, MA 02110-13017, USA
|
||||
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
|
||||
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
|
||||
|
||||
Preamble
|
||||
|
||||
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
|
||||
freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
|
||||
License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
|
||||
software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This
|
||||
General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
|
||||
Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
|
||||
using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
|
||||
the GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it to
|
||||
your programs, too.
|
||||
|
||||
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
|
||||
price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
|
||||
have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
|
||||
this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
|
||||
if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
|
||||
in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
|
||||
|
||||
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
|
||||
anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
|
||||
These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
|
||||
distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
|
||||
gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
|
||||
you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
|
||||
source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their
|
||||
rights.
|
||||
|
||||
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
|
||||
(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
|
||||
distribute and/or modify the software.
|
||||
|
||||
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
|
||||
that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
|
||||
software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
|
||||
want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
|
||||
that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
|
||||
authors' reputations.
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
|
||||
patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
|
||||
program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
|
||||
program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
|
||||
patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
|
||||
|
||||
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
|
||||
modification follow.
|
||||
|
||||
GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
|
||||
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
|
||||
|
||||
0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
|
||||
a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
|
||||
under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below,
|
||||
refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
|
||||
means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
|
||||
that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
|
||||
either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
|
||||
language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
|
||||
the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".
|
||||
|
||||
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
|
||||
covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
|
||||
running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
|
||||
is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
|
||||
Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
|
||||
Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
|
||||
|
||||
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
|
||||
source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
|
||||
conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
|
||||
copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
|
||||
notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
|
||||
and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
|
||||
along with the Program.
|
||||
|
||||
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
|
||||
you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
|
||||
|
||||
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
|
||||
of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
|
||||
distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
|
||||
above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
|
||||
|
||||
a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
|
||||
stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
|
||||
|
||||
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
|
||||
whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
|
||||
part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
|
||||
parties under the terms of this License.
|
||||
|
||||
c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
|
||||
when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
|
||||
interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
|
||||
announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
|
||||
notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
|
||||
a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
|
||||
these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
|
||||
License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
|
||||
does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
|
||||
the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
|
||||
|
||||
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
|
||||
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
|
||||
and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
|
||||
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
|
||||
sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
|
||||
distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
|
||||
on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
|
||||
this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
|
||||
entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
|
||||
|
||||
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
|
||||
your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
|
||||
exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
|
||||
collective works based on the Program.
|
||||
|
||||
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
|
||||
with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
|
||||
a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
|
||||
the scope of this License.
|
||||
|
||||
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
|
||||
under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
|
||||
Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
|
||||
|
||||
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
|
||||
source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
|
||||
1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
|
||||
|
||||
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
|
||||
years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
|
||||
cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
|
||||
machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
|
||||
distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
|
||||
customarily used for software interchange; or,
|
||||
|
||||
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
|
||||
to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is
|
||||
allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
|
||||
received the program in object code or executable form with such
|
||||
an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
|
||||
|
||||
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
|
||||
making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source
|
||||
code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
|
||||
associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
|
||||
control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a
|
||||
special exception, the source code distributed need not include
|
||||
anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
|
||||
form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
|
||||
operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
|
||||
itself accompanies the executable.
|
||||
|
||||
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
|
||||
access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
|
||||
access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
|
||||
distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
|
||||
compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
|
||||
|
||||
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
|
||||
except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt
|
||||
otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
|
||||
void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
|
||||
However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
|
||||
this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
|
||||
parties remain in full compliance.
|
||||
|
||||
5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
|
||||
signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
|
||||
distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are
|
||||
prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
|
||||
modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
|
||||
Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
|
||||
all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
|
||||
the Program or works based on it.
|
||||
|
||||
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
|
||||
Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
|
||||
original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
|
||||
these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
|
||||
restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
|
||||
You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
|
||||
this License.
|
||||
|
||||
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
|
||||
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
|
||||
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
|
||||
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
|
||||
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
|
||||
distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
|
||||
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
|
||||
may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent
|
||||
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
|
||||
all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
|
||||
the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
|
||||
refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
|
||||
|
||||
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
|
||||
any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
|
||||
apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
|
||||
circumstances.
|
||||
|
||||
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
|
||||
patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
|
||||
such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
|
||||
integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
|
||||
implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
|
||||
generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
|
||||
through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
|
||||
system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
|
||||
to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
|
||||
impose that choice.
|
||||
|
||||
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
|
||||
be a consequence of the rest of this License.
|
||||
|
||||
8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
|
||||
certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
|
||||
original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
|
||||
may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
|
||||
those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
|
||||
countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates
|
||||
the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
|
||||
|
||||
9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
|
||||
of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
|
||||
be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
|
||||
address new problems or concerns.
|
||||
|
||||
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program
|

specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
|

later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
|
||||
either of that version or of any later version published by the Free

Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of
|

this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
|
||||
Foundation.
|
||||
|

10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
|
||||
programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
|
||||
to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free
|
||||
Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
|
||||
make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals
|
||||
of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
|
||||
of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
|

|

NO WARRANTY
|

11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
|
||||
FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN
|

OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
|

PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
|

END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
|

|
||||
How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
|
||||
|
||||
If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
|
||||
possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
|
||||
free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
|
||||
|
||||
To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
|
||||
to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
|
||||
convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
|
||||
the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
|
||||
|
||||
<one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
|
||||

(at your option) any later version.
|
||||
|
||||
This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
|
||||
but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
|

|
||||
|
||||
You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
|
||||
along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation,
|
||||
Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301, USA
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
|
||||
|
||||
If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
|
||||
when it starts in an interactive mode:
|
||||
|
||||
Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) 19yy name of author
|
||||
Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
|
||||
This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
|
||||
under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
|
||||
|
||||
The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
|
||||
parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may
|
||||
be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
|
||||
mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
|
||||
|
||||
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
|
||||
school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
|
||||
necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:
|
||||

|

consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the

Plaice <plaice AT omega.cse.unsw.edu.au>
|
||||
|
||||
Yannis Haralambous and John Plaice are the authors of Omega
|
||||
typesetting system, <http://omega.cse.unsw.edu.au/>. Omega is an
|
||||
extension of TeX. Its first release, aims primarily at improving TeX's
|
||||
multilingual abilities. In Omega all characters and pointers into
|
||||
data-structures are 16-bit wide, instead of 8-bit, thereby eliminating
|
||||
many of the trivial limitations of TeX. Omega also allows multiple
|
||||
input and output character sets, and uses programmable filters to
|
||||
translate from one encoding to another, to perform contextual
|
||||
analysis, etc. Internally, Omega uses the universal 16-bit Unicode
|
||||
standard character set, based on ISO-10646. These improvements not
|
||||
only make it a lot easier for TeX users to cope with multiple or
|
||||
complex languages, like Arabic, Indic, Khmer, Chinese, Japanese or
|
||||
Korean, in one document, but will also form the basis for future
|
||||
developments in other areas, such as native color support and
|
||||
hypertext features. ... Fonts for UT1 (omlgc family) and UT2 (omah
|
||||
family) are under development: these fonts are in PostScript format
|
||||
and visually close to Times and Helvetica font families. (from the
|
||||
Omega WWW site). Omega fonts are available subject to GPL

* Wadalab Kanji Comittee
|
||||
|

Between April 1990 and March 1992, Wadalab Kanji Comittee put together
|
||||
a series of scalable font files with Japanese scripts, in four forms:
|
||||
Sai Micho, Chu Mincho, Cho Kaku and Saimaru. The font files are
|
||||
written in custom file format, while tools for conversion into
|
||||
Metafont and PostScript Type 1 are also supplied. The Wadalab Kanji
|
||||
Comittee has later been dismissed, and the resulting files can be now
|
||||
found on the FTP server of the Depertment of Mathematical Engineering

* Young U. Ryu <ryoung AT utdallas.edu>
|
||||
|
||||
Young Ryu is the author of Txfonts, a set of mathematical symbols
|
||||
designed to accompany text typeset in Times or its variants. In the
|
||||
documentation, Young adresses the design of mathematical symbols: "The
|
||||
Adobe Times fonts are thicker than the CM fonts. Designing math fonts
|
||||
for Times based on the rule thickness of Times = , , + , / , < ,
|
||||
etc. would result in too thick math symbols, in my opinion. In the TX
|
||||
fonts, these glyphs are thinner than those of original Times
|
||||
fonts. That is, the rule thickness of these glyphs is around 85% of
|
||||
that of the Times fonts, but still thicker than that of the CM fonts."
|
||||
TX fonts are are distributed under the GNU public license
|

(GPL). Pointers to their location are available on

Installing the Free UCS outline fonts
|
||||
=====================================
|
||||
|
||||
1. UNIX/GNU/Linux/BSD Systems
|
||||
|
||||
The rather awkward "UNIX/GNU/Linux/BSD" agglomeration is used to
|
||||
denote any system capable of running XFree86 server with FreeType
|
||||
<http://www.freetype.org/>, a high-quality free font rasterizer.
|
||||
|
||||
1.1 KDE local installation
|
||||
|
||||
Users of KDE can install .ttf files on a per-user basis using the KDE
|
||||
Control Center module "kcmfontinst", which may appear in the menu as
|
||||
|
||||
Settings -> System Administration -> Font Installer
|
||||
|
||||
This is especially helpful for developers and testers.
|
||||
|
||||
1.2 Debian GNU/Linux
|
||||
|
||||
Users of Debian GNU/Linux system will probably want to use the
|
||||
pre-packed Debian package, as available from the Debian site,
|
||||
<http://packages.debian.org/unstable/x11/ttf-freefont.html>, or
|
||||
any of its mirrors. You can install them by issuing the command
|
||||
|
||||
apt-get install ttf-freefont
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
1.3 The rough way
|
||||
|
||||
1) Fetch the freefont-ttf.tar.gz package with Free UCS outline fonts
|
||||
in the TrueType format.
|
||||
|
||||
2) Unpack TrueType fonts into a suitable directory,
|
||||
e.g. /usr/local/share/fonts/default/TrueType/
|
||||
|
||||
3) If you have chosen any other directory, make sure the directory you
|
||||
used to install the fonts is listed in the path searched by the X
|
||||
Font Server. Append the directory to the "catalogue=" in the
|
||||
/etc/X11/fs/config.
|
||||
|
||||
4) Run ttmkfdir in the directory where you unpacked the fonts.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
2. Microsoft Windows 95/98/NT/2000/XP
|
||||
|
||||
Probably something like Windows Vista:
|
||||
|
||||
Microsoft Windows Vista
|
||||
* From Start menu, open Control Panels
|
||||
* drag-n-drop font files onto Fonts control panel
|
||||
may get dialog saying
|
||||
"Windows needs your permission to continue"
|
||||
* click Continue
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
3. MacOS X
|
||||
|
||||
Installing on Mac OS X requires moving the .ttf files to either
|
||||
/Library/Fonts/ or ~/Library/Fonts/ depending on whether they should be
|
||||
available to all users on your system or just to yourself.

|

Summary: This project aims to provide a set of free scalable (i.e., OpenType)
|
||||
fonts covering the ISO 10646/Unicode UCS (Universal Character Set).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
WHY DO WE NEED FREE SCALABLE UCS FONTS?
|
||||
|
||||
A large number of free software users switched from free X11 bitmapped
|
||||
fonts to proprietary Microsoft TrueType fonts, as
|
||||
a) they used to be freely downloaded from Microsoft Typography page
|
||||
<http://www.microsoft.com/typography/free.htm>,
|
||||
b) they contain a decent subset of the ISO 10646 UCS (Universal Character Set),
|
||||
c) they are high-quality, well hinted scalable TrueType fonts, and
|
||||
d) Freetype <http://www.freetype.org/>, a free, high quality TrueType font
|
||||
renderer been integrated into the latest release of XFree86,
|
||||
the free X11 server.
|
||||
|
||||
Building a dependence on non-free software, even a niche one like fonts,
|
||||
is dangerous. Microsoft TrueType core fonts are not free, they are just
|
||||
costless. For now, at least. Citing the TrueType core fonts for the Web
|
||||
FAQ <http://www.microsoft.com/typography/faq/faq8.htm>:
|
||||
"You may only redistribute the fonts in their original form (.exe or
|
||||
.sit.hqx) and with their original file name from your Web site or
|
||||
intranet site. You must not supply the fonts, or any derivative fonts
|
||||
based on them, in any form that adds value to commercial products,
|
||||
such as CD-ROM or disk based multimedia programs, application software
|
||||
or utilities." As of August 2002, however, the fonts are not anymore
|
||||
available from the Microsoft Web site, which makes the situation clearer.
|
||||
|
||||
Aren't there any free high-quality scalable fonts? Yes, there are.
|
||||
The Bitstream Vera fonts were made public, and are now maintained as
|
||||
the DejaVu fonts family.
|
||||
URW++, a German digital type foundry, released their own version of the
|
||||
35 PostScript Type 1 core fonts under GPL as their donation to the
|
||||
Ghostscript project <http://www.ghostscript.com>.
|
||||
The Wadalab Kanji committee has produced Type 1 font files with thousands of
|
||||
filigree Japanese glyphs <http://gps.tanaka.ecc.u-tokyo.ac.jp/wadalabfont/>.
|
||||
Yannis Haralambous has drawn beautiful glyphs for the Omega typesetting
|
||||
system <http://omega.enstb.org/>.
|
||||
And so on. Scattered around the Internet there are numerous other free
|
||||
resources for other national scripts, many of them aiming to be a suitable
|
||||
match for Latin fonts like Times or Helvetica.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
WHAT DO WE PLAN TO ACHIEVE, AND HOW?
|
||||
|
||||
Our aim is to collect available resources, fill in the missing pieces,
|
||||
and provide a set of free high-quality scalable (OpenType) UCS fonts,
|
||||
released under GNU General Public License.
|
||||
|
||||
Free UCS scalable fonts will cover the following character sets
|
||||
|
||||
* ISO 8859 parts 1-15
|
||||
* CEN MES-3 European Unicode Subset
|
||||
http://www.evertype.com/standards/iso10646/pdf/cwa13873.pdf
|
||||
* IBM/Microsoft code pages 437, 850, 852, 1250, 1252 and more
|
||||
* Microsoft/Adobe Windows Glyph List 4 (WGL4)
|
||||
http://www.microsoft.com/typography/otspec/WGL4.htm
|
||||
* KOI8-R and KOI8-RU
|
||||
* DEC VT100 graphics symbols
|
||||
* International Phonetic Alphabet
|
||||
* Arabic, Hebrew, Armenian, Georgian, Ethiopian, Thai and Lao alphabets,
|
||||
including Arabic presentation forms A/B
|
||||
* Japanese Katakana and Hiragana
|
||||
* mathematical symbols, including the whole TeX repertoire of symbols
|
||||
* APL symbols
|
||||
etc.
|
||||
|
||||
A free outline font editor, George Williams's FontForge
|
||||
<http://fontforge.sourceforge.net/> will be used for creating new glyphs.
|
||||
Rogier van Dalen's TrueType/OpenType utilities
|
||||
http://home.kabelfoon.nl/~slam/fonts/
|
||||
will be used for instructing TrueType fonts and compiling OpenType tables.
|
||||
|
||||
DESIGN ISSUES
|
||||
|
||||
Which font shapes should be made? As historical style terms like
|
||||
Renaissance or Baroque letterforms cannot be applied beyond
|
||||
Latin/Cyrillic/Greek scripts to any greater extent than Kufi or Nashki
|
||||
can be applied beyond Arabic script, a smaller subset of styles will
|
||||
be made: one monospaced - FreeMono - and two proportional (one with
|
||||
uniform stroke - FreeSans - and one with modulated - FreeSerif)
|
||||
will be made at the start.
|
||||
|
||||
These minimal style requirements allow the typefaces to preserve
|
||||
the same characteristic spirit regardless of the scripts, so that the
|
||||
font will be a harmonic unity. Some design notes on individual typefaces
|
||||
are available.
|
||||
|
||||
In the beginning, however, we don't believe that TrueType hinting will
|
||||
be good enough to compete with either the hand-crafted bitmapped fonts at
|
||||
small sizes, or with commercial TrueType fonts.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
LICENSING
|
||||
|
||||
Free UCS scalable fonts is free software; you can redistribute it
|
||||
and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as
|
||||
published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the
|
||||
License, or (at your option) any later version.
|
||||
|
||||
The fonts are distributed in the hope that they will be useful, but
|
||||
WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
|
||||
MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU
|

|
||||
|
||||
As a special exception, if you create a document which uses this font,
|
||||
and embed this font or unaltered portions of this font into the
|
||||
document, this font does not by itself cause the resulting document to
|
||||
be covered by the GNU General Public License. This exception does not
|
||||
however invalidate any other reasons why the document might be covered
|
||||
by the GNU General Public License. If you modify this font, you may
|
||||
extend this exception to your version of the font, but you are not
|
||||
obligated to do so. If you do not wish to do so, delete this exception
|
||||
statement from your version.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
WHAT DO THE FILE SUFFIXES MEAN?
|
||||
|
||||
The files with .sfd (Spline Font Database) are in FontForge's native
|
||||
format. Please use these if you plan to modify the font files.
|
||||
FontForge can export these to mostly any existing font file format.
|
||||
|
||||
TrueType fonts for immediate consumption are the files with the .ttf
|
||||
(TrueType Font) suffix. You can use them directly, e.g. with the X
|
||||
font server.
|
||||
|
||||
The files with .ps (PostScript) suffix are not font files at all -
|
||||
they are merely PostScript files with glyph tables, which can be used
|
||||
for overview, which glyphs are contained in which font file.
|
||||
|
||||
You may have noticed the lack of PostScript Type 1 (.pfa/.pfb) font files.
|
||||
Type 1 format does not support large (> 256) encoding vectors, so they
|
||||
can not be used with ISO 10646 encoding. If your printer supports it,
|
||||
you can use Type 0 format, though. Please use FontForge for conversion
|
||||
to Type 0.
