8* URW++ Design & Development GmbH <http://www.urwpp.de/>
9
10URW++ donated a set of 35 core PostScript Type 1 fonts to the
11Ghostscript project <http://www.ghostscript.com/>, to be available
12under the terms of GNU General Public License (GPL).

23* Yannis Haralambous <yannis.haralambous AT enst-bretagne.fr> and John
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

55* Valek Filippov <frob AT df.ru>
56
57Valek Filippov added Cyrillic glyphs and composite Latin Extended A to
58the whole set of the abovementioned URW set of 35 PostScript core fonts,
59<ftp://ftp.gnome.ru/fonts/>. The fonts are available under GPL.
60(The Cyrillic range was since replaced by another font.)

65* Wadalab Kanji Comittee
66
67Between April 1990 and March 1992, Wadalab Kanji Comittee put together a
68series of scalable font files with Japanese scripts, in four forms:
69Sai Micho, Chu Mincho, Cho Kaku and Saimaru.
70The font files are written in custom file format, while tools for conversion
71into Metafont and PostScript Type 1 are also supplied. The Wadalab Kanji
72Comittee was later dismissed. The resulting files were once found on the FTP
73server of the Department of Mathematical Engineering and Information Physics,
74Faculty of Engineering, University of Tokyo. Some of these are available at
75<http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/wadalab>

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).

103The glyphs from this source have been used to compose Greek glyphs in
104FreeSans and FreeMono.
105
106Angelo's licence says: "You can enjoy free use of these fonts for
107educational or commercial purposes. All derived works should include
108this paragraph. If you want to change something please let me have
109your changes (via email) so that they can go into the next
110version. You can also send comments etc to the above address."

310Vyacheslav Dikonov made a Braille unicode font that could be merged
311with the UCS fonts to fill the 2800-28FF range completely. (uniform
312scaling is possible to adapt it to any cell size). He also contributed
313a free syriac font, whose glyphs (about half of them) are borrowed
314from the "Carlo Ator" font by Tim Erickson.

360precisely, "Public Domain under GNU Licence Produced by DMS
361Electronics for The Sri Lanka Tipitaka Project" (taken from the font
362comment), and took the effort of recoding the font to Unicode.
363
364These glyphs were later replaced by those from the LKLUG font
365<http://www.lug.lk/fonts/lklug>
366
367Finally the range was completely replaced by glyphs from the sinh TeX
368font, with much help and advice from Harshula Jayasuriya.

394`Rachana' in Malayalam means `to write', `to create'. Rachana Akshara Vedi,
395a team of socially committed information technology professionals and
396philologists, has applied developments in computer technology and desktop
397publishing to resurrect the Malayalam language from the disorder,
398fragmentation and degeneration it had suffered since the attempt to adapt
399the Malayalam script for using with a regular mechanical typewriter, which
400took place in 1967-69. K.H. Hussein at the Kerala Forest Research Institute
401has released "Rachana Normal" fonts with approximately 900 glyphs required
402to typeset traditional Malayalam. R. Chitrajan apparently encoded the
403glyphs in the OpenType table.
404
405In 2008, the Malayalam ranges in FreeSerif were updated under the advise
406and supervision of Hiran Venugopalan of Swathanthra Malayalam Computing,
407to reflect the revised edition Rachana_04.
