FarsiWeb.ir has released the first standard set of Unicode Persian fonts ever
published, including Elham, Terafik, Terafik Bold, Titr, Roya, Roya Bold,
Koodak, Nazli, Nazli Bold, and Homa.  The main advantage over legacy fonts is
compliance with the Unicode, ISIRI 6219, and OpenType standards, and the
addition of required but missing glyphs for Persian information processing. The
fonts are highly recommended if you care for proper Persian display on your
computers.

Add mgopen.

The MgOpen typefaces are freely available and contain glyphs for viewing
texts in Greek (written in the monotoniko system).

The MgOpen typeface collection is composed of the following typefaces:

  - MgOpenCanonica is a serif typeface, based on the design of Times Roman.
  - MgOpenCosmetica is a sans-serif typeface, based on the design of Optima.
  - MgOpenModata is another sans-serif typeface.
  - MgOpenModerna is a sans-serif typeface, based on the design of Helvetica.

Each family contains four fonts, namely all the combinations of regular and
bold weight and upright and italic (or oblique) shape. All the fonts contain
glyphs for the latin and greek alphabets (using the monotoniko system), while
the fonts of the Canonica family also contain all the glyphs necessary for
viewing Greek texts written in the polytoniko system. All the fonts use the
Unicode encoding for characters and are in the TrueType format.

The fonts, in their initial release, have some characters missing (the most
important one being the Euro symbol). These shortcomings will be fixed in
future releases.

The wqy font includes all the CJK characters covered by the Unicode
Standard 4.0.

This font is created by merging GNU Unifont (by Roman Czyborra
<roman@czyborra.com> and David Starner <dvdeug@debian.org>) with GBK 16 font
from yh-3.1 (Yan Huang Chinese Platform, Redflag Linux,
http://www.redflag-linux.com/).

The CJK Unified Ideographs (U+4E00~U+9FA5) are now complete, and the quality
of the bitmaps has improved significantly.

This release is part of an ongoing effort from the WenQuanYi Project to
create high-quality open-source bitmap Chinese fonts.

Currently only bitmap fonts are available. TTF fonts are in progress.

Cyberbit was developed by Bitstream to provide Unicode Consortium members with
a test font. It is therefore distributed freely to customers that need advanced
multilingual fonts for testing and other non-commercial uses. Customers that
wish to use Cyberbit for other purposes must license the font from Bitstream.
