Alexandru Tenie/Deformat here.

I've been searching for some alternate fonts, since the original font (Open 
Sans) didn't have extended language support.
I've fount out about Intel's Clear Sans: https://01.org/clear-sans
I've noticed that for normal text Clear Sans Medium could work rather well for 
various text (as you may test it here: 
http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/clear-sans). For lockscreen, a more light 
version could work, or maybe the current font could work as well.

I'd like to point out that there are also various other fonts with extended 
language support, such as Ubuntu's font and Firefox' Fira (Firo?) Font.

I think it would be great to have dejavu fonts in nemomobile.

I like them looks, but qwazix mentioned on IRC these font lack broad
set of characters for various languages.

More votes for us to stick with Open Sans:
The author of the flashable Android Font packs project [1] told me
that Open Sans is the most downloaded one.

Also quoting him, Open Sans is "the OCD healer, perfect font for reading" :)

Let's see if Nemo's design lead (nickname: qwazix) finds the time to reply
and see if he has already taken those fonts into account :) or if we're
about to replace Nemo's font with one of those you just suggested :D

thanks for the ideas! :)
