Fonts SIG activities

The Fonts Special Interest Group is dedicated to improving fonts availability and text rendering/layouting in Fedora. Its activities include:

• finding the best fonts to include, for internationalization and localization reasons , or to please our artists ,
• packaging new fonts and font tools,
• free/libre font evangelism : convince foundries to release fonts under a free/libre Fedora-friendly license , recruit possible free/libre font authors…
• font creation and design ,
• identifying font or text problems in applications and libraries,
• fixing them or getting them fixed,
• choosing good Fedora fonts defaults,
• etc

Any font or text-related activity can be tackled, as long as the result is free/libre and compatible with the Fedora objectives.

The current SIG todo list is published there .
