New Revision: 32783
URL: http://svn.reactos.org/svn/reactos?rev=32783&view=rev
Log:
- Reenable the DejaVu font and use it for all purposes except substitudes for
"Arial" and "Times New Roman". Keep using the Liberation fonts for
these cases.
- Finally remove the Bitstream Vera fonts and substitude them by the DejaVu fonts.
The DejaVu fonts were derived from the Bitstream Vera fonts, so they look similar.

-Copyright FAQ
-=============
-
- 1. I don't understand the resale restriction... What gives?
-
- Bitstream is giving away these fonts, but wishes to ensure its
- competitors can't just drop the fonts as is into a font sale system
- and sell them as is. It seems fair that if Bitstream can't make money
- from the Bitstream Vera fonts, their competitors should not be able to
- do so either. You can sell the fonts as part of any software package,
- however.
-
- 2. I want to package these fonts separately for distribution and
- sale as part of a larger software package or system. Can I do so?
-
- Yes. A RPM or Debian package is a "larger software package" to begin
- with, and you aren't selling them independently by themselves.
- See 1. above.
-
- 3. Are derivative works allowed?
- Yes!
-
- 4. Can I change or add to the font(s)?
- Yes, but you must change the name(s) of the font(s).
-
- 5. Under what terms are derivative works allowed?
-
- You must change the name(s) of the fonts. This is to ensure the
- quality of the fonts, both to protect Bitstream and Gnome. We want to
- ensure that if an application has opened a font specifically of these
- names, it gets what it expects (though of course, using fontconfig,
- substitutions could still could have occurred during font
- opening). You must include the Bitstream copyright. Additional
- copyrights can be added, as per copyright law. Happy Font Hacking!
-
- 6. If I have improvements for Bitstream Vera, is it possible they might get
- adopted in future versions?
-
- Yes. The contract between the Gnome Foundation and Bitstream has
- provisions for working with Bitstream to ensure quality additions to
- the Bitstream Vera font family. Please contact us if you have such
- additions. Note, that in general, we will want such additions for the
- entire family, not just a single font, and that you'll have to keep
- both Gnome and Jim Lyles, Vera's designer, happy! To make sense to add
- glyphs to the font, they must be stylistically in keeping with Vera's
- design. Vera cannot become a "ransom note" font. Jim Lyles will be
- providing a document describing the design elements used in Vera, as a
- guide and aid for people interested in contributing to Vera.
-
- 7. I want to sell a software package that uses these fonts: Can I do so?
-
- Sure. Bundle the fonts with your software and sell your software
- with the fonts. That is the intent of the copyright.
-
- 8. If applications have built the names "Bitstream Vera" into them,
- can I override this somehow to use fonts of my choosing?
-
- This depends on exact details of the software. Most open source
- systems and software (e.g., Gnome, KDE, etc.) are now converting to
- use fontconfig (see www.fontconfig.org) to handle font configuration,
- selection and substitution; it has provisions for overriding font
- names and subsituting alternatives. An example is provided by the
- supplied local.conf file, which chooses the family Bitstream Vera for
- "sans", "serif" and "monospace". Other software
(e.g., the XFree86
- core server) has other mechanisms for font substitution.

-Bitstream Vera Fonts - April 16, 2003
-=====================================
-
-The version number of these fonts is 1.10 to distinguish them from the
-beta test fonts.
-
-Note that the Vera copyright is incorporated in the fonts themselves.
-The License field in the fonts contains the copyright license as it
-appears below. The TrueType copyright field is not large enough to
-contain the full license, so the license is incorporated (as you might
-think if you thought about it) into the license field, which
-unfortunately can be obscure to find. (In pfaedit, see: Element->Font
-Info->TTFNames->License).
-
-Our apologies for it taking longer to complete the fonts than planned.
-Beta testers requested a tighter line spacing (less leading) and Jim
-Lyles redesigned Vera's accents to bring its line spacing to more
-typical of other fonts. This took additional time and effort. Our
-thanks to Jim for this effort above and beyond the call of duty.
-
-There are four monospace and sans faces (normal, oblique, bold, bold
-oblique) and two serif faces (normal and bold). Fontconfig/Xft2 (see
-www.fontconfig.org) can artificially oblique the serif faces for you:
-this loses hinting and distorts the faces slightly, but is visibly
-different than normal and bold, and reasonably pleasing.
-
-On systems with fontconfig 2.0 or 2.1 installed, making your sans,
-serif and monospace fonts default to these fonts is very easy. Just
-drop the file local.conf into your /etc/fonts directory. This will
-make the Bitstream fonts your default fonts for all applications using
-fontconfig (if sans, serif, or monospace names are used, as they often
-are as default values in many desktops). The XML in local.conf may
-need modification to enable subpixel decimation, if appropriate,
-however, the commented out phrase does so for XFree86 4.3, in the case
-that the server does not have sufficient information to identify the
-use of a flat panel. Fontconfig 2.2 adds Vera to the list of font
-families and will, by default use it as the default sans, serif and
-monospace fonts.
-
-During the testing of the final Vera fonts, we learned that screen
-fonts in general are only typically hinted to work correctly at
-integer pixel sizes. Vera is coded internally for integer sizes only.
-We need to investigate further to see if there are commonly used fonts
-that are hinted to be rounded but are not rounded to integer sizes due
-to oversights in their coding.
-
-Most fonts work best at 8 pixels and below if anti-aliased only, as
-the amount of work required to hint well at smaller and smaller sizes
-becomes astronomical. GASP tables are typically used to control
-whether hinting is used or not, but Freetype/Xft does not currently
-support GASP tables (which are present in Vera).
-
-To mitigate this problem, both for Vera and other fonts, there will be
-(very shortly) a new fontconfig 2.2 release that will, by default not
-apply hints if the size is below 8 pixels. if you should have a font
-that in fact has been hinted more agressively, you can use fontconfig
-to note this exception. We believe this should improve many hinted
-fonts in addition to Vera, though implemeting GASP support is likely
-the right long term solution.
-
-Font rendering in Gnome or KDE is the combination of algorithms in
-Xft2 and Freetype, along with hinting in the fonts themselves. It is
-vital to have sufficient information to disentangle problems that you
-may observe.
-
-Note that having your font rendering system set up correctly is vital
-to proper judgement of problems of the fonts:
-
- * Freetype may or may not be configured to in ways that may
- implement execution of possibly patented (in some parts of the world)
- TrueType hinting algorithms, particularly at small sizes. Best
- results are obtained while using these algorithms.
-
- * The freetype autohinter (used when the possibly patented
- algorithms are not used) continues to improve with each release. If
- you are using the autohinter, please ensure you are using an up to
- date version of freetype before reporting problems.
-
- * Please identify what version of freetype you are using in any
- bug reports, and how your freetype is configured.
-
- * Make sure you are not using the freetype version included in
- XFree86 4.3, as it has bugs that significantly degrade most fonts,
- including Vera. if you build XFree86 4.3 from source yourself, you may
- have installed this broken version without intending it (as I
- did). Vera was verified with the recently released Freetype 2.1.4. On
- many systems, 'ldd" can be used to see which freetype shared library
- is actually being used.
-
- * Xft/X Render does not (yet) implement gamma correction. This
- causes significant problems rendering white text on a black background
- (causing partial pixels to be insufficiently shaded) if the gamma of
- your monitor has not been compensated for, and minor problems with
- black text on a while background. The program "xgamma" can be used to
- set a gamma correction value in the X server's color pallette. Most
- monitors have a gamma near 2.
-
- * Note that the Vera family uses minimal delta hinting. Your
- results on other systems when not used anti-aliased may not be
- entirely satisfying. We are primarily interested in reports of
- problems on open source systems implementing Xft2/fontconfig/freetype
- (which implements antialiasing and hinting adjustements, and
- sophisticated subpixel decimation on flatpanels). Also, the
- algorithms used by Xft2 adjust the hints to integer widths and the
- results are crisper on open source systems than on Windows or
- MacIntosh.
-
- * Your fontconfig may (probably does) predate the release of
- fontconfig 2.2, and you may see artifacts not present when the font is
- used at very small sizes with hinting enabled. "vc-list -V" can be
- used to see what version you have installed.
-
-We believe and hope that these fonts will resolve the problems
-reported during beta test. The largest change is the reduction of
-leading (interline spacing), which had annoyed a number of people, and
-reduced Vera's utility for some applcations. The Vera monospace font
-should also now make '0' and 'O' and '1' and 'l' more
clearly
-distinguishable.
-
-The version of these fonts is version 1.10. Fontconfig should be
-choosing the new version of the fonts if both the released fonts and
-beta test fonts are installed (though please discard them: they have
-names of form tt20[1-12]gn.ttf). Note that older versions of
-fontconfig sometimes did not rebuild their cache correctly when new
-fonts are installed: please upgrade to fontconfig 2.2. "fc-cache -f"
-can be used to force rebuilding fontconfig's cache files.
-
-If you note problems, please send them to fonts at gnome dot org, with
-exactly which face and size and unicode point you observe the problem
-at. The xfd utility from XFree86 CVS may be useful for this (e.g. "xfd
--fa sans"). A possibly more useful program to examine fonts at a
-variety of sizes is the "waterfall" program found in Keith Packard's
-CVS.

- $ xmkmf -a

-Again, please make sure you are running an up-to-date freetype, and
