README Gentium ============ This project is intended to provide a free and open font family for all current languages and writing systems that use Latin, Cyrillic, and Greek scripts. It supports almost the complete range of Unicode characters for these scripts, including a comprehensive range of diacritics and a large set of symbols useful for linguistics and literacy work. Smart font routines automatically adjust the position of diacritics to support and optimize arbitrary base+diacritic combinations. This project uses a UFO-based design and production workflow, with all sources in open formats and a completely open-source build toolkit. To download the fonts visit the [Gentium downloads page](https://software.sil.org/gentium/download/) or the [Github releases page](https://github.com/silnrsi/font-gentium/releases).

gentium-sil – A complete Greek font with Latin and Cyrillic, too
This is a redistribution of the original Gentium release from SIL, not altered in any way.
Gentium is a typeface family designed to enable the diverse ethnic groups around the world who use the Latin, Cyrillic and Greek scripts to produce readable, high-quality publications.
The Gentium family includes a complete Greek font, supporting both monotonic and polytonic forms. While some Greek characters do closely resemble Latin ones, it is a separate design that embraces the robust, distinctive character of the Greek script, but does so within the design context of the whole typeface. As a result, the two scripts can be successfully mixed in a paragraph or page of text.
