+Cantarell is a contemporary humanist sans serif, and is used by the GNOME
+project for its user interface.
-This package provides support for this font in LaTeX. It includes Type 1
-versions of the fonts, converted for this package using FontForge from its
-sources, for full support with Dvips.
+Cantarell was originally designed by Dave Crossland as part of his coursework
+for the MA Typeface Design program at the Department of Typography in the
+University of Reading, England. After the GNOME project adopted the typeface in
+November 2010, minor modifications and slight expansions were made to it over
+the years, notably by Jakub Steiner. Pooja Saxena initially worked on the
+typeface as a participant of the GNOME outreach program and later developed her
+own Devanagari typeface Cambay, which included a redesigned latin version of
+Cantarell. It was backported to the GNOME branch of Cantarell by Nikolaus
+Waxweiler, who also performed other janitorial tasks on it.
-Installation and usage instructions are described in
-doc/fonts/cantarell/cantarell.pdf.
+This font family, delivered under the OFL version 1.1, is available on the GNOME
+download server as CFF-flavored OpenType files.

+This package provides support for Cantarell in LaTeX, including XeLaTeX and
+LuaLaTeX. It includes the original OpenType fonts, as well as Type 1 versions,
