            The Old Standard font family is an attempt to revive a specific type of
            Modern (classicist) style of serif typefaces, very commonly used in various
            editions printed in the late 19th and early 20th century, but almost
            completely  abandoned later. Although contemporary typographers often
            consider this lettertype obsolete and out-of-fashion, it still has at least
            two advantages:

            -- The classicist style still can be considered a good choice for
            typesetting scientific papers, especially on social and humanitarian
            sciences, as its specific features are closely associated in the people's
            eyes with old books they learned on;

            -- the most beautiful examples of Greek and Cyrillic lettertypes were all
            based on the Modern style, so that for those scripts "Modern" fonts
            are much more appropriate than any contemporary (e. g. Times-based)
            designs.

            That's why the Old Standard font family has two main purposes: it is
            intended to be used as a specialized font for philologists (mainly
            classicists, germanists and slavists) and also as a general-purpose font
            for typesetting various  editions in languages which use Greek or Cyrillic
            script. For this reason Old Standard provides glyphs for a wide range of
            Latin, Greek and Cyrillic characters.

            The name "Old Standard" was selected as opposed to the "Obyknovennaya
            Novaya" ("New Standard") typeface, widely used in the Soviet typography,
            which represents another, slightly different type of the same Modern style.
            The digital version of this font is now available from Paratype
            (http://www.paratype.ru). Of course this name doesn't look very original,
            but it seems to be a good choice for a revival of the most common
            lettertype of the early 20th century.

            SIL OPEN FONT LICENSE Version 1.1 - 26 February 2007
            -----------------------------------------------------------

            PREAMBLE
            The goals of the Open Font License (OFL) are to stimulate worldwide
            development of collaborative font projects, to support the font creation
            efforts of academic and linguistic communities, and to provide a free and
            open framework in which fonts may be shared and improved in partnership
            with others.

            The OFL allows the licensed fonts to be used, studied, modified and
            redistributed freely as long as they are not sold by themselves. The
            fonts, including any derivative works, can be bundled, embedded,
            redistributed and/or sold with any software provided that any reserved
            names are not used by derivative works. The fonts and derivatives,
            however, cannot be released under any other type of license. The
            requirement for fonts to remain under this license does not apply
            to any document created using the fonts or their derivatives.

            DEFINITIONS
