8* URW++ Design & Development GmbH <http://www.urwpp.de/>

10URW++ donated a set of 35 core PostScript Type 1 fonts to the
11Ghostscript project <http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/>, to be available
12under the terms of GNU General Public License (GPL).

24 Plaice <plaice AT omega.cse.unsw.edu.au>
25
26Yannis Haralambous and John Plaice are the authors of Omega typesetting
27system, <http://omega.enstb.org/>. Omega is an extension of TeX.
28Its first release, aims primarily at improving TeX's multilingual abilities.
29In Omega all characters and pointers into data-structures are 16-bit wide,
30instead of 8-bit, thereby eliminating many of the trivial limitations of TeX.
31Omega also allows multiple input and output character sets, and uses
32programmable filters to translate from one encoding to another, to perform
33contextual analysis, etc. Internally, Omega uses the universal 16-bit Unicode
34standard character set, based on ISO-10646. These improvements not only make
35it a lot easier for TeX users to cope with multiple or complex languages,
36like Arabic, Indic, Khmer, Chinese, Japanese or Korean, in one document, but
37will also form the basis for future developments in other areas, such as
38native color support and hypertext features. ... Fonts for UT1 (omlgc family)
39and UT2 (omah family) are under development: these fonts are in PostScript
40format and visually close to Times and Helvetica font families.
41Omega fonts are available subject to GPL

65* Wadalab Kanji Comittee
66
67Between April 1990 and March 1992, Wadalab Kanji Comittee put together
68a series of scalable font files with Japanese scripts, in four forms:
69Sai Micho, Chu Mincho, Cho Kaku and Saimaru. The font files are
70written in custom file format, while tools for conversion into
71Metafont and PostScript Type 1 are also supplied. The Wadalab Kanji
72Comittee has later been dismissed, and the resulting files can be now
73found on the FTP server of the Depertment of Mathematical Engineering
74and Information Physics, Faculty of Engineering, University of Tokyo
75<ftp://ftp.ipl.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp/Font/>.

81* Young U. Ryu <ryoung AT utdallas.edu>
82
83Young Ryu is the author of Txfonts, a set of mathematical symbols
84designed to accompany text typeset in Times or its variants. In the
85documentation, Young adresses the design of mathematical symbols: "The
86Adobe Times fonts are thicker than the CM fonts. Designing math fonts
87for Times based on the rule thickness of Times = , , + , / , < ,
88etc. would result in too thick math symbols, in my opinion. In the TX
89fonts, these glyphs are thinner than those of original Times
90fonts. That is, the rule thickness of these glyphs is around 85% of
91that of the Times fonts, but still thicker than that of the CM fonts."
92TX fonts are are distributed under the GNU public license (GPL).

355precisely, "Public Domain under GNU Licence Produced by DMS
356Electronics for The Sri Lanka Tipitaka Project" (taken from the font
357comment), and took the effort of recoding the font to Unicode.
358
359These glyphs were later replaced by those from the LKLUG font
360<http://www.lug.lk/fonts/lklug>
361
362Finally the range was completely replaced by glyphs from the sinh TeX

389`Rachana' in Malayalam means `to write', `to create'. Rachana Akshara Vedi,
390a team of socially committed information technology professionals and
391philologists, has applied developments in computer technology and desktop
392publishing to resurrect the Malayalam language from the disorder,
393fragmentation and degeneration it had suffered since the attempt to adapt
394the Malayalam script for using with a regular mechanical typewriter, which
395took place in 1967-69. K.H. Hussein at the Kerala Forest Research Institute
396has released "Rachana Normal" fonts with approximately 900 glyphs required
397to typeset traditional Malayalam. R. Chitrajan apparently encoded the
398glyphs in the OpenType table.
399
400In 2008, the Malayalam ranges in FreeSerif were updated under the advise
401and supervision of Hiran Venugopalan of Swathanthra Malayalam Computing,
