[Freefont-bugs] Remove Hiragana and Katakana?

2008-04-14 Thread Steve White
Hi, I need to make a decision, and want to at least inform people of it, and get some feed-back. The question is whether to remove the Japanese Hiragana/Katakana ranges or not. There are other options as well, but right now, I'm leaning toward removal. The problem is, these ranges sit in

Hi Reza! First, you are of course welcome to alter the fonts as you like, for your own purposes. If you want to submit changes to the GNU FreeFont project, let's please talk before you spend too much time on it. I'm picky about what is acceptable. You should also be aware, several corrections

Hi Haksung, An Android installer APK is software. If you deliver the font (or any part of it) in an APK, then the APK and everything in it will fall under the GPL 3+ license, and must conform to GPL rules. Do I understand your intent correctly? Thanks! On Mon, Dec 3, 2018 at 2:40 PM Haksung
