# README: Fonts

Included in this directory are two fonts, 'Bulara' and 'Noto Sans Gurmukhi'. I include the full distribution of each font, although at present we're only using one file of each. The two fonts are quite different in appearance and I am not certain which is more legible for Gurmukhi readers.

Having checked on the licence status of Bulara, I'm a little wary of using it; font CDNs that list it say that it is available under GNU General Public License version 2, but its own author's site [says only](https://web.archive.org/web/20250314090506/http://www.billie.grosse.is-a-geek.com/resources-03.html)
