-FONTLOG for Cantarell beta release\r
-===================================
-\r
-This file provides detailed information on the Cantarell font\r
-software. This information should be distributed along with the\r
-Cantarell fonts and any derivative works.\r

-Font Information
--------------------------\r
-
-The Cantarell typeface family was designed during my study of MA
-Typeface Design [1] in the Department of Typography at the University
-of Reading (UK). Its homepage is http://abattis.org/cantarell
-
-The typeface is designed as a contemporary Humanist sans serif, and
-was developed for on-screen reading; in particular, reading web pages
-on an HTC Dream mobile phone [2].
-
-That device runs Google Android [3], and therefore has a web browser
-supporting the exciting new web fonts feature known as @font-face
-[4]. As my very first typeface design, the typeface has many faults,
-yet it achieves the goal of improving readability on this device.
-
-Each font file currently contains 391 glyphs, and fully support the
-following writing systems: Basic Latin, Western European, Catalan,
-Baltic, Turkish, Central European, Dutch and Afrikaans. To date, Pan
-African Latin has only 33% glyph coverage.
-
-Since the design is aimed at display on-screen at small sizes, the
-printed output (especially of the bold and oblique) may not work
-well. I hope to publish a set of fonts tuned to the needs of printing
-in the future.
-
-This highlights my motivation for undertaking a study of typeface
-design: I believe it is essential that when we use digital tools, our
-freedom to use, understand, modify and share these tools is
-respected. Otherwise, when the tool does not work in the way that we
-need, we will be unable to fix it.
-
-These fonts were developed using only such software, mainly FontForge
-[5]. Typeface designs are tools too, and therefore these font files
-are licensed in a way that respects your freedom—you are invited to
-extend them to meet your needs, such as to add the glyphs missing from
-your own writing systems, under the terms of the GNU General Public
-License [6].
-
-If you like this typeface and would like to support its continuing
-development, you can buy a subscription at £5/month:

-This ZIP files contains the TTF fonts you can use on your desktop, and
-the source files you can modify. You may upload these fonts to your
-website, and for that I include EOT files for compatibility with
-Microsoft Internet Explorer.
-
-Simply add the following lines to your CSS stylesheets, and place the
-EOT and TTF files in the same directory:
-
-/* Just add the "cantarell" class to HTML elements you wish to use this typeface */
-@font-face {font-family:Cantarell; src:url("Cantarell-Regular.eot");}
-@font-face {font-family:Cantarell; src:url("Cantarell-Oblique.eot"); font-style:italic;}
-@font-face {font-family:Cantarell; src:url("Cantarell-Bold.eot"); font-weight:bold;}
-@font-face {font-family:Cantarell; src:url("Cantarell-BoldOblique.eot"); font-weight:bold; font-style:italic;}
-@font-face {font-family:Cantarell; src:url("Cantarell-Regular.ttf");}
-@font-face {font-family:Cantarell; src:url("Cantarell-Oblique.ttf"); font-style:italic;}
-@font-face {font-family:Cantarell; src:url("Cantarell-Bold.ttf"); font-weight:bold;}
-@font-face {font-family:Cantarell; src:url("Cantarell-BoldOblique.ttf"); font-weight:bold; font-style:italic;}
-.cantarell {font-family:Cantarell, sans-serif; line-height:1.8em;}
-
-NOTE: You can significantly speed up your page loading times by only
-including the Regular font. Web browsers will generate bold and
-oblique members of the typeface family from the regular when they are
-needed. This does not work as well for serif designs, but is fine
-for a sans serif typeface like Cantarell.
-
-The original Spiro source file is the _master_ source, and from it
-the other files in the family were generated; the regular by
-converting the Spiro curves to PostScript cubic Bezier curves, and
-then to TrueType quadratic Bezier curves, and the others by
-performing bold and oblique machine-transformations with FontForge on
-the Bezier curve version. I will soon publish a "Reflection on
-Practice" document on the abattis.org/cantarell website that will
-explain this process in detail.
-
-The EOT files were generated with http://code.google.com/p/ttf2eot/
-and have no root string restrictions or compression.
