| Beschreibung |
Gentium Basic and Gentium Book Basic are font famililes based on the original
Gentium design, but with additional weights. The "Book" family is slightly
heavier. Both families come with a complete regular, bold, italic and bold
italic set of fonts.
.
The supported character set, however, is much smaller than for the main
Gentium fonts. These "Basic" fonts support only the Basic Latin and Latin-1
Supplement Unicode ranges, plus a selection of the more commonly used extended
Latin characters, with miscellaneous diacritical marks, symbols and
punctuation. A much more complete character set will be supported in a future
version of the complete Gentium fonts. These "Basic" fonts are intended as a
way to provide additional weights for basic font users without waiting until
the complete Gentium character set is finished.
.
There are, however, some wonderful new features that are still missing from
the main Gentium family:
* Bold
* Bold Italic
* The slightly-heavier Book family
* OpenType and Graphite smart code for diacritic placement
* A few useful OpenType and Graphite features Support for a few more recent
* Additions to Unicode Character assignments updated to Unicode 5.1
.
The font sources are available in the source package and directly on the
upstream project website.
