Description: Font family for wide range of languages that use Latin, Cyrillic, Greek scripts
Gentium ("belonging to the nations" in Latin) is a Unicode typeface family
designed to enable the many diverse ethnic groups around the world who use
the Latin script to produce readable, high-quality publications. The
design is intended to be highly readable, reasonably compact, and visually
attractive. Gentium has won a "Certificate of Excellence in Typeface
Design" in two major international typeface design competitions:
bukva:raz! (2001), TDC2003 (2003). The Gentium Plus font family is based on
this original design.
.
The goal for this product is to provide a single Unicode-based font family
that contains a comprehensive inventory of glyphs needed for almost any
Roman- or Cyrillic-based writing system, whether used for phonetic or
orthographic needs, and provide a matching Greek face. In addition, there
is provision for other characters and symbols useful to linguists. This
font makes use of state-of-the-art font technologies to support complex
typographic issues, such as the need to position arbitrary combinations
of base glyphs and diacritics optimally.
.
Eight fonts from this typeface family are included in this release,
grouped into two families, including a slightly heavier Book family:
* Gentium Plus Regular
* Gentium Plus Bold
* Gentium Plus Italic
* Gentium Plus Bold Italic
.
* Gentium Book Plus Regular
* Gentium Book Plus Bold
* Gentium Book Plus Italic
* Gentium Book Plus Bold Italic
.
Webfont versions and HTML/CSS examples are also available.
.
The full font sources are publicly available at

An open workflow is used for building, testing and releasing.
