Good initiative, this is one of the first steps in designing our communication supports. What is the SIL? > We have to care about this point for our document marketing and why > not for DDL itself. Yes, but the urgency is marketing, DDL as a computer system is already on rails :). > Here some free fonte readable : > 1. - pecita : http://pecita.eu/ > My opinion : no good for me, even we tweak some letters (like the d > and the S) (i can do that). I agree, quite unreadable, although the appearance is really looking like human writing. > 2. - Ecoulier Court > http://pkg-fonts.alioth.debian.org/review/pkg-ttf-ecolier-court.html > My opinion : exactly what the french little student have to learn when > they write. > So we can use it on DDL and for marketing (little thing). > => have to control the exact licence I also wonder about non [a-z][A-Z] alphabets :). Anyway I think it should be used with parsimony because it is very childish and not so easy to read in my opinion. Perfect to add some fun text frames though. > 3.

I am a lot in favor. I agree, it is nice and modern. My quick tests showed it works with Cyrillic and Greek alphabets. For installation, Debian/Ubuntu packages are available as well: http://packages.sil.org/ubuntu/dists/natty/main/binary-all/fonts/ It can be installed on any Debian/Ubuntu since the dependencies are very low. -- Cheers, JM.
