The Ubuntu Font Family is very long-term endeavour, and the first time
|
||||||
|
that a professionally-designed font has been funded specifically with
|
||||||
|
the intent of being an on-going community expanded project:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
http://font.ubuntu.com/
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Development of the Ubuntu Font Family is undertaken on Launchpad:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
http://launchpad.net/ubuntu-font-family/
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
and this is where milestones, bug management and releases are handled.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Contributions are welcomed. Your work will be used on millions of
|
||||||
|
computers every single day! Following the initial bootstrapping of
|
||||||
|
Latin, Cyrillic, Greek, Arabic and Hebrew expansion will be undertaken
|
||||||
|
by font designers from the font design and Ubuntu communities.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To ensure that the Ubuntu Font Family can be re-licensed to future
|
||||||
|
widely-used libre font licences, copyright assignment is being required:

This is the FONTLOG file for the Ubuntu Font Family and attempts to follow

Overview
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The new Ubuntu Font Family was started to enable the personality of
|
||||||
|
Ubuntu to be seen and felt in every menu, button and dialog.
|
||||||
|
The typeface is sans-serif, uses OpenType features and is manually
|
||||||
|
hinted for clarity on desktop and mobile computing screens.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The scope of the Ubuntu Font Family includes all the languages used by
|
||||||
|
the various Ubuntu users around the world in tune with Ubuntu's
|
||||||
|
philosophy which states that every user should be able to use their
|
||||||
|
software in the language of their choice. So the Ubuntu Font Family
|
||||||
|
project will be extended to cover many more written languages.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
History
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Ubuntu Font Family has been creating during 2010 and 2011. As of
|
||||||
|
September 2011 coverage is provided for Latin, Cyrillic and Greek across
|
||||||
|
Regular, Italic, Bold and Bold-Italic. Further work was uptaken during
|
||||||
|
2015.

ChangeLog
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2015-08-21 (Paul Sladen) Ubuntu Font Family version 0.83
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Note: This release was created by binary patching from the v0.80
|
||||||
|
release using the scripts in 'sources/patch-0.80-0.83/' to rebuild
|
||||||
|
the necessary tables. The release selectively updates only those
|
||||||
|
proportional .ttf font files exhibiting the bug below bug number;
|
||||||
|
the Ubuntu Mono monospace font files remain unchanged, being the
|
||||||
|
original version 0.80 ones.

Ubuntu Font Family Licensing FAQ
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Stylistic Foundations
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Ubuntu Font Family is the first time that a libre typeface has been
|
||||||
|
designed professionally and explicitly with the intent of developing a
|
||||||
|
public and long-term community-based development process.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
When developing an open project, it is generally necessary to have firm
|
||||||
|
foundations: a font needs to maintain harmony within itself even across
|
||||||
|
many type designers and writing systems. For the [1]Ubuntu Font Family,
|
||||||
|
the process has been guided with the type foundry Dalton Maag setting
|
||||||
|
the project up with firm stylistic foundation covering several
|
||||||
|
left-to-right scripts: Latin, Greek and Cyrillic; and right-to-left
|
||||||
|
scripts: Arabic and Hebrew (due in 2011).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
With this starting point the community will, under the supervision of
|
||||||
|
[2]Canonical and [3]Dalton Maag, be able to build on the existing font
|
||||||
|
sources to expand their character coverage. Ultimately everybody will
|
||||||
|
be able to use the Ubuntu Font Family in their own written languages
|
||||||
|
across the whole of Unicode (and this will take some time!).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Licensing
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The licence chosen by any free software project is one of the
|
||||||
|
foundational decisions that sets out how derivatives and contributions
|
||||||
|
can occur, and in turn what kind of community will form around the
|
||||||
|
project.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Using a licence that is compatible with other popular licences is a
|
||||||
|
powerful constraint because of the [4]network effects: the freedom to
|
||||||
|
share improvements between projects allows free software to reach
|
||||||
|
high-quality over time. Licence-proliferation leads to many
|
||||||
|
incompatible licences, undermining the network effect, the freedom to
|
||||||
|
share and ultimately making the libre movement that Ubuntu is a part of
|
||||||
|
less effective. For all kinds of software, writing a new licence is not
|
||||||
|
to be taken lightly and is a choice that needs to be thoroughly
|
||||||
|
justified if this path is taken.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Today it is not clear to Canonical what the best licence for a font
|
||||||
|
project like the Ubuntu Font Family is: one that starts life designed
|
||||||
|
by professionals and continues with the full range of community
|
||||||
|
development, from highly commercial work in new directions to curious
|
||||||
|
beginners' experimental contributions. The fast and steady pace of the
|
||||||
|
Ubuntu release cycle means that an interim libre licence has been
|
||||||
|
necessary to enable the consideration of the font family as part of
|
||||||
|
Ubuntu 10.10 operating system release.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Before taking any decision on licensing, Canonical as sponsor and
|
||||||
|
backer of the project has reviewed the many existing licenses used for
|
||||||
|
libre/open fonts and engaged the stewards of the most popular licenses
|
||||||
|
in detailed discussions. The current interim licence is the first step
|
||||||
|
in progressing the state-of-the-art in licensing for libre/open font
|
||||||
|
development.
|
||||||
|
|

|
The public discussion must now involve everyone in the (comparatively
|
||||||
|
new) area of the libre/open font community; including font users,
|
||||||
|
software freedom advocates, open source supporters and existing libre
|
||||||
|
font developers. Most importantly, the minds and wishes of professional
|
||||||
|
type designers considering entering the free software business
|
||||||
|
community must be taken on board.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Conversations and discussion has taken place, privately, with
|
||||||
|
individuals from the following groups (generally speaking personally on
|
||||||
|
behalf of themselves, rather than their affiliations):
|
||||||
|
* [5]SIL International
|
||||||
|
* [6]Open Font Library
|
||||||
|
* [7]Software Freedom Law Center
|
||||||
|
* [8]Google Font API
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Document embedding
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
One issue highlighted early on in the survey of existing font licences
|
||||||
|
is that of document embedding. Almost all font licences, both free and
|
||||||
|
unfree, permit embedding a font into a document to a certain degree.
|
||||||
|
Embedding a font with other works that make up a document creates a
|
||||||
|
"combined work" and copyleft would normally require the whole document
|
||||||
|
to be distributed under the terms of the font licence. As beautiful as
|
||||||
|
the font might be, such a licence makes a font too restrictive for
|
||||||
|
useful general purpose digital publishing.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The situation is not entirely unique to fonts and is encountered also
|
||||||
|
with tools such as GNU Bison: a vanilla GNU GPL licence would require
|
||||||
|
anything generated with Bison to be made available under the terms of
|
||||||
|
the GPL as well. To avoid this, Bison is [9]published with an
|
||||||
|
additional permission to the GPL which allows the output of Bison to be
|
||||||
|
made available under any licence.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The conflict between licensing of fonts and licensing of documents, is
|
||||||
|
addressed in two popular libre font licences, the SIL OFL and GNU GPL:
|
||||||
|
* [10]SIL Open Font Licence: When OFL fonts are embedded in a
|
||||||
|
document, the OFL's terms do not apply to that document. (See
|
||||||
|
[11]OFL-FAQ for details.
|
||||||
|
* [12]GPL Font Exception: The situation is resolved by granting an
|
||||||
|
additional permission to allow documents to not be covered by the
|
||||||
|
GPL. (The exception is being reviewed).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Ubuntu Font Family must also resolve this conflict, ensuring that
|
||||||
|
if the font is embedded and then extracted it is once again clearly
|
||||||
|
under the terms of its libre licence.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Long-term licensing
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Those individuals involved, especially from Ubuntu and Canonical, are
|
||||||
|
interested in finding a long-term libre licence that finds broad favour
|
||||||
|
across the whole libre/open font community. The deliberation during the
|
||||||
|
past months has been on how to licence the Ubuntu Font Family in the
|
||||||
|
short-term, while knowingly encouraging everyone to pursue a long-term
|
||||||
|
goal.
|
||||||
|
* [13]Copyright assignment will be required so that the Ubuntu Font
|
||||||
|
Family's licensing can be progressively expanded to one (or more)
|
||||||
|
licences, as best practice continues to evolve within the
|
||||||
|
libre/open font community.
|
||||||
|
* Canonical will support and fund legal work on libre font licensing.
|
||||||
|
It is recognised that the cost and time commitments required are
|
||||||
|
likely to be significant. We invite other capable parties to join
|
||||||
|
in supporting this activity.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The GPL version 3 (GPLv3) will be used for Ubuntu Font Family build
|
||||||
|
scripts and the CC-BY-SA for associated documentation and non-font
|
||||||
|
content: all items which do not end up embedded in general works and
|
||||||
|
documents.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Ubuntu Font Licence
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For the short-term only, the initial licence is the [14]Ubuntu Font
|
||||||
|
License (UFL). This is loosely inspired from the work on the SIL
|
||||||
|
OFL 1.1, and seeks to clarify the issues that arose during discussions
|
||||||
|
and legal review, from the perspective of the backers, Canonical Ltd.
|
||||||
|
Those already using established licensing models such as the GPL, OFL
|
||||||
|
or Creative Commons licensing should have no worries about continuing
|
||||||
|
to use them. The Ubuntu Font Licence (UFL) and the SIL Open Font
|
||||||
|
Licence (SIL OFL) are not identical and should not be confused with
|
||||||
|
each other. Please read the terms precisely. The UFL is only intended
|
||||||
|
as an interim license, and the overriding aim is to support the
|
||||||
|
creation of a more suitable and generic libre font licence. As soon as
|
||||||
|
such a licence is developed, the Ubuntu Font Family will migrate to
|
||||||
|
it—made possible by copyright assignment in the interium. Between the
|
||||||
|
OFL 1.1, and the UFL 1.0, the following changes are made to produce the
|
||||||
|
Ubuntu Font Licence:
|
||||||
|
* Clarification:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Document embedding (see [15]embedding section above).
|
||||||
|
2. Apply at point of distribution, instead of receipt
|
||||||
|
3. Author vs. copyright holder disambiguation (type designers are
|
||||||
|
authors, with the copyright holder normally being the funder)
|
||||||
|
4. Define "Propagate" (for internationalisation, similar to the GPLv3)
|
||||||
|
5. Define "Substantially Changed"
|
||||||
|
6. Trademarks are explicitly not transferred
|
||||||
|
7. Refine renaming requirement
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Streamlining:
|
||||||
|
8. Remove "not to be sold separately" clause
|
||||||
|
9. Remove "Reserved Font Name(s)" declaration
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A visual demonstration of how these points were implemented can be
|
||||||
|
found in the accompanying coloured diff between SIL OFL 1.1 and the
|
||||||
|
Ubuntu Font Licence 1.0: [16]ofl-1.1-ufl-1.0.diff.html

UBUNTU FONT LICENCE Version 1.0
|
||||||
|
-------------------------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
PREAMBLE
|
||||||
|
This licence allows the licensed fonts to be used, studied, modified and
|
||||||
|
redistributed freely. The fonts, including any derivative works, can be
|
||||||
|
bundled, embedded, and redistributed provided the terms of this licence
|
||||||
|
are met. The fonts and derivatives, however, cannot be released under
|
||||||
|
any other licence. The requirement for fonts to remain under this
|
||||||
|
licence does not require any document created using the fonts or their
|
||||||
|
derivatives to be published under this licence, as long as the primary
|
||||||
|
purpose of the document is not to be a vehicle for the distribution of
|
||||||
|
the fonts.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
DEFINITIONS
|
||||||
|
"Font Software" refers to the set of files released by the Copyright
|
||||||
|
Holder(s) under this licence and clearly marked as such. This may
|
||||||
|
include source files, build scripts and documentation.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
"Original Version" refers to the collection of Font Software components
|
||||||
|
as received under this licence.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
"Modified Version" refers to any derivative made by adding to, deleting,
|
||||||
|
or substituting -- in part or in whole -- any of the components of the
|
||||||
|
Original Version, by changing formats or by porting the Font Software to
|
||||||
|
a new environment.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
"Copyright Holder(s)" refers to all individuals and companies who have a
|
||||||
|
copyright ownership of the Font Software.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
"Substantially Changed" refers to Modified Versions which can be easily
|
||||||
|
identified as dissimilar to the Font Software by users of the Font
|
||||||
|
Software comparing the Original Version with the Modified Version.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To "Propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
|
||||||
|
permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
|
||||||
|
infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
|
||||||
|
computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying,
|
||||||
|
distribution (with or without modification and with or without charging
|
||||||
|
a redistribution fee), making available to the public, and in some
|
||||||
|
countries other activities as well.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
PERMISSION & CONDITIONS
|
||||||
|
This licence does not grant any rights under trademark law and all such
|
||||||
|
rights are reserved.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a
|
||||||
|
copy of the Font Software, to propagate the Font Software, subject to
|
||||||
|
the below conditions:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1) Each copy of the Font Software must contain the above copyright
|
||||||
|
notice and this licence. These can be included either as stand-alone
|
||||||
|
text files, human-readable headers or in the appropriate machine-
|
||||||
|
readable metadata fields within text or binary files as long as those
|
||||||
|
fields can be easily viewed by the user.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2) The font name complies with the following:
|
||||||
|
(a) The Original Version must retain its name, unmodified.
|
||||||
|
(b) Modified Versions which are Substantially Changed must be renamed to
|
||||||
|
avoid use of the name of the Original Version or similar names entirely.
|
||||||
|
(c) Modified Versions which are not Substantially Changed must be
|
||||||
|
renamed to both (i) retain the name of the Original Version and (ii) add
|
||||||
|
additional naming elements to distinguish the Modified Version from the
|
||||||
|
Original Version. The name of such Modified Versions must be the name of
|
||||||
|
the Original Version, with "derivative X" where X represents the name of
|
||||||
|
the new work, appended to that name.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3) The name(s) of the Copyright Holder(s) and any contributor to the
|
||||||
|
Font Software shall not be used to promote, endorse or advertise any
|
||||||
|
Modified Version, except (i) as required by this licence, (ii) to
|
||||||
|
acknowledge the contribution(s) of the Copyright Holder(s) or (iii) with
|
||||||
|
their explicit written permission.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
4) The Font Software, modified or unmodified, in part or in whole, must
|
||||||
|
be distributed entirely under this licence, and must not be distributed
|
||||||
|
under any other licence. The requirement for fonts to remain under this
|
||||||
|
licence does not affect any document created using the Font Software,
|
||||||
|
except any version of the Font Software extracted from a document
|
||||||
|
created using the Font Software may only be distributed under this
|
||||||
|
licence.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
TERMINATION
|
||||||
|
This licence becomes null and void if any of the above conditions are
|
||||||
|
not met.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
DISCLAIMER
|
||||||
|
THE FONT SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND,
|

Ubuntu Font Family
|
||||||
|
======================
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Ubuntu Font Family are a set of matching new libre/open fonts in
|
||||||
|
development during 2010--2011. And with further expansion work and
|
||||||
|
bug fixing during 2015. The development is being funded by
|
||||||
|
Canonical Ltd on behalf the wider Free Software community and the
|
||||||
|
Ubuntu project. The technical font design work and implementation is
|
||||||
|
being undertaken by Dalton Maag.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Both the final font Truetype/OpenType files and the design files used
|
||||||
|
to produce the font family are distributed under an open licence and
|
||||||
|
you are expressly encouraged to experiment, modify, share and improve.

|
The build process used by Dalton Maag is as follows. There are no
|
||||||
|
multiple-masters, any interpolation is done by the designers from the
|
||||||
|
base font. Per-font there are currently a total of two source files:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. FL: Make adjustments in FontLab
|
||||||
|
2. FL: Note list of changed glyphs somewhere (eg. a sheet of paper)
|
||||||
|
3. FL: Export as W.ttf
|
||||||
|
4. VTT: Load W.ttf into VTT
|
||||||
|
5. VTT: Partially import X.ttf (including VTT private "source"
|
||||||
|
table), manually deselecting any changed glyphs noted earlier
|
||||||
|
6. VTT: Make adjustments in VTT
|
||||||
|
7. VTT: Save as X.ttf (including VTT private "source" tables)
|
||||||
|
8. VTT: Export as Y.ttf (without VTT private "source" tables)
|
||||||
|
9. CacheTT: Process Y.ttf + configuration file with MS CacheTT
|
||||||
|
("optimisation stage")
|
||||||
|
10. CacheTT: Distribute optimised Z.ttf as end-user file
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This 'Z.ttf' is the version that is then shipped, there is no merging
|
||||||
|
(other than selective import of glyphs metadata from previous version
|
||||||
|
in VTT), and no use of VOLT in the current pipeline, although VOLT
|
||||||
|
will be used for Arabic. To reproduce the output .ttfs, the following
|
||||||
|
are required:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. one-off .vfb per font (currently four)
|
||||||
|
2. one-off .ttf per font (containing VTT "source" tables)
|
||||||
|
4. one-off CacheTT .cfg configuration file (across all fonts)
|
||||||
|
3. one-off .ttf per font (final output)
