Gentium ("belonging to the nations" in Latin) is a Unicode typeface
family designed to enable the many diverse ethnic groups around the
world who use the Latin script to produce readable, high-quality
publications. The design is intended to be highly readable, reasonably
compact, and visually attractive. Gentium has won a "Certificate of
Excellence in Typeface Design" in two major international typeface
design competitions: bukva:raz! (2001), TDC2003 (2003). The Gentium Plus
font family is based on this original design.
This project is intended to provide a free and open font family for all
current languages and writing systems that use Latin and Cyrillic
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.
Binary packages can be installed with the high-level tool pkgin (which can be installed with pkg_add) or pkg_add(1) (installed by default). The NetBSD packages collection is also designed to permit easy installation from source.
The pkg_admin audit command locates any installed package which has been mentioned in security advisories as having vulnerabilities.
Please note the vulnerabilities database might not be fully accurate, and not every bug is exploitable with every configuration.
Problem reports, updates or suggestions for this package should be reported with send-pr.
