XITS is a Times-like typeface for mathematical and scientific publishing, based
|
|
|
|
on [STIX fonts][1]. The main mission of XITS is to provide a version of STIX
|

|
|
|
fonts enhanced with the OpenType `MATH` table, making it suitable for high
|
|
|
|
quality mathematic typesetting with OpenType math-capable layout systems, like
|
|
|
|
Microsoft Office 2007+, XeTeX and LuaTeX.

The preferred way for modifying the fonts is by editing the SFD files under
|
2018-12-07 04:49:28 +08:00
|
|
|
`sources` directory in the [source repository][5], using [FontForge][3]. When
|
2019-11-16 21:16:45 +08:00
|
|
|
submitting patches, please run `make normalize` before committing and avoid
|
2018-12-07 04:49:28 +08:00
|
|
|
any unrelated or unnecessary changes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To build the fonts from source you need GNU Make, [FontForge][3] Python module,
|
|
|
|
and [FontTools][4].
