Caveats

  1. No licensing info in the font metadata or in the zip file, only on the web site
  2. Requires the packaging of robofab and some makefile writing to setup the full .vfb to .ufo (robofab) then .ufo to .otf (fontforge) build from source chain. Not required, as robofab can only do this conversion with the help of Fontlab, and that isn't free software. Package the OTF only.
