Description : Font with very complete Latin and Greek support including
almost all diacritics
Gentium is a typeface family designed to enable the diverse ethnic
groups around the world who use the Latin script to produce readable,
high-quality publications. It supports a wide range of Latin-based
alphabets and includes glyphs that correspond to all the Latin ranges of
Unicode.
The design is intended to be highly readable, reasonably compact, and
visually attractive. The additional âextendedâ Latin letters are
designed to naturally harmonize with the traditional 26 ones.
Diacritics are treated with careful thought and attention to their use.
Gentium also supports both ancient and modern Greek, including a number
of alternate forms. These fonts were originally the product of two years
of research and study by the designer at the University of Reading,
England, as part of an MA program in Typeface Design.
SIL International has now embraced the Gentium project, and plans to
continue development. Expansion of the glyph set to include more
extended Latin glyphs, archaic Greek symbols, and full Cyrillic script
support is the next step. Work on this has already begun, but the
results will not be available for a few months. Addition of bold and
bold italic faces will follow.
Gentium is freely available and may be used by anyone at no cost. It is
not public domain, and cannot be altered, but can be given to anyone
who might need it. Our hope is that it will stimulate literature
production and elevate extended Latin alphabets to greater parity with
the basic Latin alphabet. We also hope it will encourage other type
designers to appreciate and support those fascinating and beautiful
extra letters.
-------------
Please note the license. In the FAQ, it is said amongst others:
| I would like to bundle Gentium with my application. Can you give me
| permission?
|
| This is our most common question. At this point, the license does not
| allow this. You would need to negotiate a separate distribution license
| with us. If you are interested in this (and understand that it will
| likely require some type of payment) please contact us. We are looking
| toward more open development and licensing models, but that will take
| time.
So, any prospective packager would need to contact upstream about this.
It's also said on the website that .deb's are being worked on.
