Alsalamu Alikum I think the issue here guys is that somebody needs to read text and compare it to a Mushaf. Usually, Certified readers do that, but since we don't know any with Linux experience, the easiest way is to hand this over to somebody who will take responsibility in saying that he compared every letter of the mashaf with what is on Quraan Software and authenticate it. This is a task that takes no more than a month at worst.
For the Record: Certification is comparing the text the way it is rendered on the software end with the Mushaf, letter by letter, including tashkeel and the other punctuations. I could help in that area Ya mahammad. Let me know if you want me to certify the text renditions and I will get on it.
