  Description : ttf-arphic-sawndip contains the font Sawndip.ttf.
    Apart from over 20 thousand unicode CJK characters the font
    also contains over 7 thousand CJK characters not currently
    in unicode. The font has been hosted by Guangxi University
    since 2009. The package is a branch from ttf-arphic-uming
    customised for Sawndip the traditional script used by the
    Zhuang (Zhuang is the mother tongue of over 10 million
    people in Guangxi China). A branch is requires because
    there is a limit to the number of glyphs one ttf font can
    contain.

  Other : Sawndip.ttf is the most extensive open source Sawndip
   font that is actively maintained and has several major
   updates each year. Whilst some glyphs require improvement the
   font because it is free and open source the font  has an
   increasing number end users. The font is also used by several
   IMEs and a customised version of Linux.
