The -design is intended to be highly readable, reasonably compact, and visually -attractive. Gentium has won a "Certificate of Excellence in Typeface -Design" in two major international typeface design competitions: -bukva:raz! (2001), TDC2003 (2003). - -The Gentium Plus font family is based on the original design. It currently -comes with regular and italic face only, although additional weights are in -development. - -The goal for this product is to provide a single Unicode-based font family -that contains a comprehensive inventory of glyphs needed for almost any -Roman- or Cyrillic-based writing system, whether used for phonetic or -orthographic needs, and provide a matching Greek face. In addition, there -is provision for other characters and symbols useful to linguists. This -font makes use of state-of-the-art font technologies to support complex -typographic issues, such as the need to position arbitrary combinations -of base glyphs and diacritics optimally. - -Two fonts from this typeface family are included in this release: - - * Gentium Plus Regular - * Gentium Plus Italic - -Work is ongoing to provide bold and bold-italic weights, as well as a -complete book-weight family. - -For detailed documentation see the contents of the 'documentation' folder. - - -A Note Regarding the Open Font License and TypeTuner ----------------------------------------------------- - -The OFL prohibits the use of Reserved Font Names "Gentium" and "SIL" in -the name of any font that is derived from the Original Version of Gentium -Plus. However, SIL International (the Copyright Holder) grants through -this separate written agreement the right to use the Reserved Font Names -in any Modified Version of this font created by using TypeTuner as long -as the feature information contained in the Original Version is used, -unmodified, as the source for TypeTuner feature information, and -"Gentium Plus" is not the resulting font family name. - -TypeTuner-produced fonts created in this manner are still bound by the -terms of the OFL. Specifically, the use of Reserved Font Names is -prohibited when making derivatives of a TypeTuner-produced font. Anyone -making a derivative of a TypeTuner font will need to find a different -name. For example a TypeTuner-produced font may be named -"Gentium Plus Literacy SomeFarAwayPlace" but a derivative of that font made -with other tools would not be allowed to use the "Gentium" and "SIL" -Reserved Font Names and would have to be named something like "Nations Serif". - - -ChangeLog ---------- -(This should list both major and minor changes, most recent first.) - -05 Oct 2011 (SIL TypeTuner) Tuned version of Gentium Plus version 1.508 -- Tuned and delivered by SIL TypeTuner -(http://scripts.sil.org/ttw/fonts2go.cgi). -- See included xml file for details of feature changes. - -12 September 2011 (SIL NRSI team) Gentium Plus version 1.508 -- Removed the VDMX table -- Changed version number (using ttfsetver) - -25 Aug 2011 (SIL NRSI team) Gentium Plus version 1.506 -- Double-encoded the SIL PUA characters which were added to Unicode 5.2 and 6.0 - (using ttfremap) -- Corrected problem with coverage tables (using ttfsortcover) -- Changed version number (using ttfsetver) -- Added device metric tables -- Added an empty dsig table - -16 Nov 2010 (SIL NRSI team) Gentium Plus version 1.504 -- Added codepage bits for 1251 (Cyrillic), 1257 (Windows Baltic), 1258 - (Vietnamese) - -1 Nov 2010 (SIL NRSI team) Gentium Plus version 1.502 -- Regular and Italic weights only -- New OpenType and Graphite support -- Converted kerning to OpenType (but not Graphite) -- New extended Cyrillic script support, inc.

Some has been done - with -good results - but is not yet complete enough. - - -Information for Developers/Contributors ---------------------------------------- - -The release of Gentium Plus version 1.502 (and any subsequent versions) under -the OFL license provides a means for people to modify the fonts to meet their -needs and contribute to the project. For information on what you're allowed to -change or modify, consult the OFL and OFL-FAQ. - -Anyone can make their own modified version of Gentium Plus (using a different -name), but SIL International will continue to maintain and develop the -canonical version of the Gentium Plus fonts. As the package maintainer, we -welcome contributions. Here are some things to keep in mind: - -Format: We are open to contributions in various formats, but if you want to -maximise the chances of us including your work, please make it available to -us (via email or a URL) as either a FontLab database (preferred) or a -PostScript Type 1 (or OT-CFF) font. - -Source files: The primary source files for the fonts are the fonts themselves. -They contain all the important data in the fonts and can be studied and -modified using open font tools such as FontForge and TTX. The developer -release contains additional source files that might be useful. See the file -source/SOURCES.txt in that release archive for further information. - -Copyright attribution: If you submit something for inclusion in the main -Gentium Plus fonts, we will ask you to affirm that it is your original work, -and ask you to assign the copyright of your work to SIL International. This -is to ensure that future releases can be made under improved versions of the -OFL without needing to track you down for further permission. This follows -the same principle used by the FSF. Keep in mind that we are a -not-for-profit organization committed to free/libre and open source -software, and that any contributions incorporated in the fonts will always -be available under the OFL or a similar license. - -Quality: Because we want to be able to guarantee a high level of quality for -the primary Gentium Plus fonts, we will review submissions carefully. Please -don't be discouraged if we do not include a submission for this reason, or -ask you to make specific revisions. - -Types of contributions: If you wish to make a contribution - a set of -additional glyphs, scripts, code, etc. - please contact us before you do any -work to see if it is a contribution we currently need. Every addition adds -to the complexity of the project and needs to be carefully planned. This -also avoids two people working on the same type of addition at the same time. - -Linux packages: Please contact the upstream maintainer of the various -packages - nicolas_spalinger@sil.org - if you want to help package or -maintain a package. - -When submissions will be included: We plan to revise the fonts when major -updates are needed (eg new versions of Unicode). If you wish to make -submissions, contact us on the timing. - - -Acknowledgements ----------------- -(Here is where contributors can be acknowledged.

The font has, however, -been through some testing on various platforms to be sure it works in most -situations. In particular, it has been tested and shown to work on Windows -XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7. Graphite capabilities have been tested -on Graphite-supported platforms. - -If you do find a problem, please do report it to fonts@sil.org. -We can't guarantee any direct response, but will try to fix reported bugs in -future versions. Make sure you read through the -SIL Unicode Roman FAQ (http://scripts.sil.org/ComplexRomanFontFAQ). - -Many problems can be solved, or at least explained, through an understanding -of the encoding and use of the fonts. Here are some basic hints: - -Encoding: -The fonts are encoded according to Unicode, so your application must support -Unicode text in order to access letters other than the standard alphabet. -Most Windows applications provide basic Unicode support. You will, however, -need some way of entering Unicode text into your document. - -Keyboarding: -This font does not include any keyboarding helps or utilities. It uses the -built-in keyboards of the operating system. You will need to install the -appropriate keyboard and input method for the characters of the language you -wish to use. If you want to enter characters that are not supported by any -system keyboard, the Keyman program (www.tavultesoft.com) can be helpful -on Windows systems. Also available for Windows is MSKLC -(http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/tools/msklc.mspx). -For Linux systems such as Ubuntu, KMFL (http://kmfl.sourceforge.net/) -is available. Ukelele (http://scripts.sil.org/ukelele) is available for -Mac OS X versions 10.2 and later. - -For other platforms, KMFL (http://kmfl.sourceforge.net/), -XKB (http://www.x.org/wiki/XKB) or Ukelele (http://scripts.sil.org/ukelele) -can be helpful. - -If you want to enter characters that are not supported by any system -keyboard, and to access the full Unicode range, we suggest you use -gucharmap, kcharselect on Ubuntu or similar software. - -Another method of entering some symbols is provided by a few applications such -as Adobe InDesign or OpenOffice.org. They can display a glyph palette or input -dialog that shows all the glyphs (symbols) in a font and allow you to enter -them by clicking on the glyph you want. - -Rendering: -This font is designed to work with Graphite or Opentype advanced font -technologies. To take advantage of the advanced typographic -capabilities of this font, you must be using applications that provide an -adequate level of support for Graphite or OpenType.
