Hi, Thanks for attaching the font for repro purposes, but... > This font is actually not freely distributable, so I assume that this will > be used for testing purposes only. Though you will find sites which freely > distribute this font, including this one, > http://bcps.org.bd/font/SutonnyBanglaOMJ.ttf. ...if there are licensing issues surrounding this font, I suggest that it not be made an attachment on FDO. We can either point to an external site such as the one you listed, or we can store the font internally (assuming we have permission to use the font internally at LibreOffice). I'm confused as to how this non-distributable fonts made it into a government standard. I don't know the background of this particular standard, but is there a possibility that we could suggest that the non-distributable fonts be replaced with freely-distributable, unicode-compliant alternatives? For an example, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberation_fonts > About comment #14, perhaps the commenter will try to understand that > SutonnyMJ (non Unicode) has not been recently gazetted as one of the > standard fonts to be used in all government documents.

LibreOffice 3 (and OpenOffice) work fine > with all of these. What's the licensing situation of these additional fonts? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
