Description The goal for Charis SIL is to provide a single Unicode-based font family that would contain a comprehensive inventory of glyphs needed for almost any Roman- or Cyrillic-based writing system, whether used for phonetic or orthographic needs. In addition, there is provision for other characters and symbols useful to linguists. . The Charis SIL font contains near-complete coverage of all the characters defined in Unicode 4.0 for Latin and Cyrillic. In total, over 2,200 glyphs are included, providing support for over 1,500 graphic or control characters as well as a large number of ligated character sequences (e.g., contour tone letters used in phonetic transcription of tonal languages). Please read the documentation (CharisSIL4FontDocumentation.pdf in /usr/share/doc/ttf-sil-charis/) to see what ranges are supported and for more about the various features of the font. . Four fonts from this typeface family are included in this release: * Charis SIL Regular * Charis SIL Bold * Charis SIL Italic * Charis SIL Bold Italic . Charis SIL is a TrueType font with "smart font" capabilities added using the Graphite, OpenType(r), and AAT font technologies. This means that complex typographic issues such as the placement of multiple diacritics or the formation of ligatures are handled by the font, provided you are running an application that provides an adequate level of support for one of these smart font technologies. . Charis SIL is released under the SIL Open Font License. Charis SIL is a trademark of SIL International. . See OFL.txt and OFL-FAQ.txt for details of the SIL Open Font License. See the FONTLOG for information on this and previous releases. .
