- This file lists contributors and contributions to the GNU FreeFont project.
 
- * URW++ Design & Development GmbH <http://www.urwpp.de/>
 
- URW++ donated a set of 35 core PostScript Type 1 fonts to the
 
- Ghostscript project <http://www.ghostscript.com/>, to be available
 
- under the terms of GNU General Public License (GPL).

- * Yannis Haralambous <yannis.haralambous AT enst-bretagne.fr> and John
 
-   Plaice <plaice AT omega.cse.unsw.edu.au>
 
- Yannis Haralambous and John Plaice are the authors of Omega typesetting
 
- system, <http://omega.enstb.org/>. 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. 
 
- Omega fonts are available subject to GPL

- 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 was later dismissed. The resulting files were once found on the FTP
 
- server of the Department of Mathematical Engineering and Information Physics,
 
- Faculty of Engineering, University of Tokyo.  Some of these are available at

- * 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).

- precisely, "Public Domain under GNU Licence
 Produced by DMS
 
- Electronics for The Sri Lanka Tipitaka Project" (taken from the font
 
- comment), and took the effort of recoding the font to Unicode.
 
- These glyphs were later replaced by those from the LKLUG font
 
- <http://www.lug.lk/fonts/lklug>
 
- Finally the range was completely replaced by glyphs from the sinh TeX
 
- font, with much help and advice from Harshula Jayasuriya.

- `Rachana' in Malayalam means `to write', `to create'. Rachana Akshara Vedi,
 
- a team of socially committed information technology professionals and
 
- philologists, has applied developments in computer technology and desktop
 
- publishing to resurrect the Malayalam language from the disorder,
 
- fragmentation and degeneration it had suffered since the attempt to adapt
 
- the Malayalam script for using with a regular mechanical typewriter, which
 
- took place in 1967-69. K.H. Hussein at the Kerala Forest Research Institute
 
- has released "Rachana Normal" fonts with approximately 900 glyphs required
 
- to typeset traditional Malayalam. R. Chitrajan apparently encoded the
 
- glyphs in the OpenType table.
 
- In 2008, the Malayalam ranges in FreeSerif were updated under the advise 
 
- and supervision of Hiran Venugopalan of Swathanthra Malayalam Computing,
 
- to reflect the revised edition Rachana_04.
