+thaifonts-scalable is a collection of Thai scalable fonts available
+in free licenses. Its goal is to provide fonts that conform to
+existing standards and recommendations, so that it can be a reference
+implementation.
+
+So, the fonts have to be modified from their original versions as
+needed, according to following references:
+ - Recommendation for Thai font design, from the National Font Project
+ - Adobe Glyph naming convention
+ - Microsoft Typography
+ - Common practice for Thai Windows fonts
+
+The tool used in this project is FontForge (http://fontforge.sourceforge.net/).
+So, you need it in generating actual fonts. Automatic scripts for
+building fonts with Makefile's are also provided, so that usual steps
+still apply:
+ $ ./configure [options]
+ $ make
+ # make install
+You can choose target font formats to generate by applying --enable-*
+options to the configure script. (Only TrueType is generated by default.)
+And for each format, you can specify install directory using --with-*dir=
+configure options. Please try `./configure --help' for the full list
+of all available options.
