The Ubuntu Font Family are a set of matching new libre/open fonts. The
|
|
development is being funded by Canonical on behalf the wider Free
|
|
Software community and the Ubuntu project. The technical font design
|
|
work and implementation is being undertaken by Dalton Maag.
|
|
|
|
Both the final font Truetype/OpenType files and the design files used to
|
|
produce the font family are distributed under an open licence and you
|
|
are expressly encouraged to experiment, modify, share and improve. The
|
|
typeface is sans-serif, uses OpenType features and is manually hinted
|
|
for clarity on desktop and mobile computing screens.
|
|
|
|
The scope of the Ubuntu Font Family includes all the languages used by
|
|
the various Ubuntu users around the world in tune with Ubuntu's
|
|
philosophy which states that every user should be able to use their
|
|
software in the language of their choice. So the Ubuntu Font Family
|
|
project will be extended to cover many more written languages.
