FONTLOG for XITS
-------------------
This file provides detailed information on the XITS font software.  This
information should be distributed along with the XITS fonts and any derivative
works.


Basic Font Information
--------------------------
XITS is a Times-like typeface for mathematical and scientific publishing, based
on STIX fonts project. The main mission of XITS is to provide a version of STIX
fonts enriched with the OpenType MATH extension, making it suitable for high
quality mathematic typesetting with OpenType MATH capable layout systems, like
MS Office 2007 and the new TeX engines XeTeX and LuaTeX.

XITS development is currently hosted on:
http://github.com/alif-type/xits

Feature requests, bug reports and patches should be directed to our issue
tracker.

XITS currently provides the following Unicode coverage:
%{XITS Math}
%{XITS Math Bold}
%{XITS}
%{XITS Bold}
%{XITS Italic}
%{XITS Bold Italic}

Information for Contributors
------------------------------
XITS is released under the OFL 1.1 - http://scripts.sil.org/OFL For information
on what you're allowed to change or modify, consult the OFL-1.1.txt and
OFL-FAQ.txt files. The OFL-FAQ also gives a very general rationale and various
