Appendix + +---------------------------------------------------------- + + + 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] + + + IV.

+ ---------------------------------------------------------------- + + 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. + + + VI.
