* Package name : ttf-sil-dai-banna Version : 2.000 Upstream Author : Adrian Cheuk, Victor Gaultney - SIL International * URL : http://scripts.sil.org/DaiBannaSIL * License : Open Font License Description : smart fonts for New Tai Lue (Xishuangbanna Dai) Description: The Dai Banna SIL Fonts are the Unicode version of their predecessor, SIL Dai Banna Fonts. Apart from a few additional characters such as Chinese punctuation marks, the design is the same and represents a new rendering of the New Tai Lue (Xishuangbanna Dai) script, which was added to Unicode 4.1. These fonts include a complete set of New Tai Lue consonants, vowels, tones and digits, along with punctuation and other useful symbols. A basic set of Latin glyphs, including Arabic numerals, is also provided. Chinese punctuation used in New Tai Lue texts are included as well. Two font families, differing only in weight, allow for a wide range of uses. The New Tai Lue script is used by approximately 300,000 people who speak the Xishuangbanna Dai language in Yunnan, China. It is a simplification of the Tai Tham (Old Tai Lue) script as used for this language for hundreds of years. These fonts are smart fonts and use a Graphite description. The font sources (Graphite .gdl and FontLab .vfb) are available in the source package and on the upstream website. -- Nicolas Spalinger http://scripts.sil.org http://pkg-fonts.alioth.debian.org/ https://launchpad.net/people/fonts
