Proposal for distribution of Statics TTF font files in Source Han Serif

Open KoyohETIcho opened this issue 8 months ago • 2 comments

I would like to thank you for providing with this wonderful font, Sorce Han Serif.

I am writing here to propose that you distribute Source Han Serif as a Statics TTF file.

The reason for this is that when I use Word, which is a software made by Mirosoft, the weight I set is not reflected when I output to PDF after embedding Source Serif JP VF.

Microsoft also acknowledges that embedding OTF fonts does not work when they are embedded. The workaround in the official documentation states "use only fonts that have the ".ttf" extension in documents in which you intend to embed the fonts.

For this reason, I would appreciate it if you would consider distributing the font files in the official Statics TTF, so that Statics OTF font files are distributed in each language.
