Foreword
- Frames that use this style are redaction tips. Please remove them from your page once they are no longer necessary. Do the same for the lorem ipsum bits.
- Remember the more complete and accurate the information you add is, the more likely a font is to be packaged and widely used.
- Do not forget to update the page categorization once the font status changes.
Asana Math font
Packager
Correct the proposal and replace it with the final package summary.
Correct the proposal and replace it with the final package summary.
Description
The Asana-Math OpenType font includes almost all mathematical symbols included in the latest version of Unicode. In addition, it includes a MATH OpenType table so as to be useful for the typesetting of mathematical text. Its output is comparable to the output produced with Cambria Math.
The font is not finished yet, but it is released in the hope that people will use it, discover bugs and report them back to the author.
pxfonts was used as a basis for the design of most glyphs.

Packager
- Once a package has entered the review stage, add a Review reference ④ such as 181994. You can reference this wiki page in your review request as additionnal information. Please do not forget to CC fedora-fonts-bugs-list@redhat.com on your bugzilla ticket.
- Once a package has been approved, add the corresponding:

- pkgdb page ⑥ pointer (for example dejavu-fonts).

Caveats
- nicely versionned font file
- however upstream needs to be convinced to do proper releases (versionned archive with license file and readme, or even fontforge and xgridfit files with Makefile)
- add a fontconfig ruleset to register Asana Math as a substitute for pxfonts and other fonts that were reused in Asana Math
Packager
Take care of those items and remove them from the page once they've been dealt with.
