The top level directories indicate the license of all files found within them.

Subdirectories are named according to the family name of the fonts within.
Each family subdirectory contains the `.ttf` font files served by Google Fonts, plus a `METADATA.json` file with metadata for the family, and a `DESCRIPTION.en_us.html` with a description of the family in US English.

## A Note On Licensing
2015-03-08 10:03:30 +03:00
Each font family directory contains the appropriate license file for the fonts in that directory and the fonts files themselves also contain licensing and authorship metadata.
2015-03-07 02:44:52 +03:00
Most of the fonts in the collection use the SIL Open Font License, v1.1.
Some fonts use the Apache 2 license.
The Ubuntu fonts use the Ubuntu Font License v1.0.
The SIL Open Font License has an option for copyright holders to include a Reserved Font Name requirement, please take care of this important detail.
## Source Files
Source files for each family are often available from the designer, or from https://github.com/googlefonts
These fonts are usually the result of collaborative projects, where you are invited to discuss issues with the designers and even contribute to their on-going development.
When customising or remixing fonts, please do contact the designers to understand
what they might need in order to include your improvements.
Most of all: Enjoy the fonts!
