+
+ I. About this font
+
+WenQuanYi Micro Hei font family is a Sans-Serif style (also known as Hei,
+Gothic or Dotum among the Chinese/Japanese/Korean users) high quality
+CJK outline font. It was derived from "Droid Sans Fallback", "Droid
+Sans" and "Droid Sans Mono" released by Google Corp. This font package
+contains two faces, "Micro Hei" and "Micro Hei Mono", in form of a
+True-Type Collection (ttc) file. All the unified CJK Han glyphs, i.e.
+GBK Hanzi, in the range of U+4E00-U+9FC3 defined in Unicode Standard 5.1
+are covered, with additional support to many other international
+languages such as Latin, Extended Latin, Hanguls and Kanas. The font
+file is extremely compact (~5M) compared with most known CJK fonts.
+As a result, it can be used for hand-held devices or embedded systems, or
+used on PC with a significantly small memory footprint. Because both
+font faces carry hinting and kerning instructions for Latin glyphs,
+they are the excellent choices for desktop fonts.
+
+
+ II. Development History
+
+The original Droid Sans Fallback font contain 16,000 Unified Han glyphs,
+and was officially released by Google under Apache2 license on Dec. 9,
+2008 [2]. With a Javascript-based web interface, Fontopia(TM) [1], developed
+by mozbug and Qianqian Fang, the WenQuanYi contributors had completed
+over 10,000 new glyphs by combining the spline contours from the existing
+Droid Han glyphs. By the end of 2008, project phase-1 had almost
+completed, and phase-2 for CJK Extension A (U+3400-U+4DB5) was brought
+online on Dec. 29, 2009. A review panel was formed to reinforce the
+quality of all submitted glyphs [3]. In Jan. 2009, the reviewers
+had redone over 2000 Hanzi and completed all the missing characters.
+The nightly-build font has become online since Jan. 16. As of Feb. 2009, there
+has been over 5500 CJK Extension A Han glyphs completed, which led this
+font toward a complete GB18030 coverage.
+
+In this font, we incorporated the high quality Latin glyphs from "Droid Sans"
+and "Droid Sans Mono", which contain not only a better coverage but also
+the additional hinting and kerning information. The EM of MicroHei
+and MicroHeiMono fonts were unified to 2048 to retain all the advanced
+typesetting features.
+
+
+ III. Credits
+
+We cordially thank Google(TM) for generously releasing Droid fonts to
+public under an open-source license. Google purchased the font from
+Ascenders Corp. (which was originally designed by a Chinese company).
+
+The project for extending the Droid fonts is based on the web-based
+glyph-composing applet [1], created by mozbug and Qianqian Fang
+jointly. They are constantly improving this application targeting at
+a web-based collaborative font development environment.
+
+Over a thousand anonymous contributors have participated the project;
+they submitted over 10,000 new Hanzi glyphs and many modifications.
+The full update history of the glyphs can be found at [4].
+
+The key members of the review panel, i.e. lsz, FangQ, kmc, Xhacker,
+philacorns, and an "anonymous" (as requested) contributor, had
+spent significant amount of efforts to redesign nearly half of the
+submitted glyphs. We appreciate the incredible effort from this team
+to make this font available. The detailed review credit can be found
+at [3]

+
+ V. About "WenQuanYi Project"
+
+The "Wen Quan Yi" Project [5] was founded by Qianqian Fang [6] in
+Oct. 2004. The goal of this project is to create a web-based
+collaborative environment for open-source type-face development.
+The initial focus of the project is to create high quality bitmap
+character glyphs and outline fonts for all 70,000+ CJK characters
+currently encoded by the Unicode Consortium. Some of the fonts
+released by this project have been widely used as the default
+Chinese desktop fonts by main-stream GNU/Linux distributions.
+
+The Wen Quan Yi Project uses wiki [5] as the primary development
+tool for glyph creation, documentation and coordinations. Wen Quan Yi
+wiki also supports glyph version control and nightly build.
