I think, I'll look into Barda's fonts and convert them to otf if possible - what's his email - I tried to contact him at his iisc address, and it bounced :( I also have a set of nice looking fonts (GPLed) which also can be transformed into OTF > > I'd imagine that there are no copyright issues since its just a couple of > pages (not even a complete chapter) and we arn't charging money. > You might need a official permission -iti- gimli PS: I updated the fonts at cvs (http://www.nongnu.org/freebangfont/downloads.html) - I think that the alignment of the fonts have been fixed to a large extent PS again: Hey!
