+Gentium Plus
+========================
+
+Thank you for your interest in the Gentium Plus fonts.
+We hope you find them useful!
+
+Gentium Plus supports a wide range of Latin, Greek and Cyrillic
+characters. Documentation for the fonts is available on Gentium website
+(http://scripts.sil.org/Gentium), including details on what ranges are
+supported.
+
+Gentium Plus is released under the SIL Open Font License.
+
+See the OFL and OFL-FAQ for details of the SIL Open Font License.
+See the FONTLOG for information on this and previous releases.
+See the GENTIUM-FAQ for answers to common questions about the Gentium fonts
+See the website (http://scripts.sil.org/Gentium) for further documentation.
+See the SIL Unicode Roman FAQ (http://scripts.sil.org/ComplexRomanFontFAQ)
+for frequently asked questions and their answers regarding SIL's Roman fonts.
+
+
+TIPS
+====
+
+As this font is distributed at no cost, we are unable to provide a
+commercial level of personal technical support. 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. See "Applications
+that provide an adequate level of support for SIL Unicode Roman fonts"
+(http://scripts.sil.org/Complex_AdLvSup).
