A font based on elements created by Demetrios Damilas (late 15th c.)
Description
The first edition of Isocrates, edited by Demetrius Chalcondyles, was published by Uldericus Scinzenzeler & Sebastianus de Ponte Tremolo, in 1493 in Milan. It was set in letters cut in 1481 by Bonus Accursius, copying the older elements of Demetrius Damilas. A digital revival was prepared by Ralph P. Hancock for his Milan (Mediolanum) font in 2000.
The font covers the Windows Glyph List, IPA Extensions, Greek Extended, Ancient Greek Numbers, Byzantine and Ancient Greek Musical Notation, various typographic extras and several Open Type features (Case-Sensitive Forms, Small Capitals, Subscript, Superscript, Numerators, Denominators, Fractions, Old Style Figures, Historical Forms, Stylistic Alternates, Ligatures).
It was created by George Douros.

Caveats
- Avdira (along with Anaktoria, Aroania and Asea) along with Alexander is packaged upstream as a unit or family called "TextFonts". Perhaps we should consider a name change in the future.
- ttfcoverage reports a 41.41% coverage of Cyrillic.
Additional information
There is a character repertoire preview of Aroania (and the other TextFonts fonts) at the project's homepage [1].
The Fonts SIG takes loving care of Fedora fonts. Please join this special interest group if you are interested in creating, improving, packaging, or just suggesting a font. Any help will be appreciated.
