FONTLOG for Libertinus
---------------------
This file provides detailed information on the Libertinus font software. This
information should be distributed along with the Libertinus fonts and any
derivative works.
Basic Font Information
----------------------
Libertinus fonts is a fork of the Linux Libertine and Linux Biolinum fonts that
started as an OpenType math companion of the Libertine font family, but grown
as a full fork to address some of the bugs in the fonts.
The family consists of:
* Libertinus Serif: forked from *Linux Libertine*.
* Libertinus Sans: forked from *Linux Biolinum*.
* Libertinus Mono: forked from *Linux Libertinus Mono*.
* Libertinus Math: an OpenType math font for use in OpenType math-capable
applications like LuaTeX, XeTeX or MS Word 2007+.
Libertinus development is currently hosted on:
https://github.com/alerque/libertinus
Feature requests, bug reports and patches should be directed to our issue
tracker.
Information for Contributors
----------------------------
Libertinus is released under the OFL 1.1 - https://scripts.sil.org/OFL For
information on what you're allowed to change or modify, consult the OFL-1.1.txt
and OFL-FAQ.txt files. The OFL-FAQ also gives a very general rationale and
various recommendations regarding why you would want to contribute to the
project or make your own version of the font.
