The main mission of XITS is to provide a +version of STIX fonts enriched with the OpenType MATH extension, making +it suitable for high quality mathematic typesetting with OpenType MATH +capable layout systems, like MS Office 2007 and the new TeX engines +XeTeX and LuaTeX. + +XITS font is free, open source font, under [Open Font License][2], +version 1.1. + +The current version of XITS is based on version 1.1.0-beta1 of STIX fonts. + +This is work in progress, feedback, bug reports and even patches are +welcomed. + +Developers +---------- + +The preferred way for modifying the fonts is by editing the SFD files under +`sources`, using [FontForge][3] (or derivatives). When submitting +patches, please make sure they are as clean as possible, avoiding any unrelated +or unnecessary changes. + +To build the fonts from source you need a make program (only GNU Make is +tested), [FontForge][3] (or derivatives) with Python support, and +[FontTools][4]. + + + +[1]: http://www.stixfonts.org +[2]: http://scripts.sil.org/OFL +[3]: http://fontforge.org/ +[4]: http://github.com/behdad/fonttools |
