Bug#1042061: ITP: fonts-atkinson-hyperlegible -- Font focused on legibility and readability



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

Package name    : fonts-atkinson-hyperlegible
Version         : 0.0~git20210430.1cb3116-1
Upstream Author : Braille Institute of America, Inc.
URL             : https://github.com/googlefonts/atkinson-hyperlegible
License         : OFL-1.1
Description     : Font focused on legibility and readability

Atkinson Hyperlegible is a typeface created in partnership with Braille Institute. It has been developed specifically to increase legibility for readers with low vision, and to improve comprehension. It supports Latin scripts, and covers accent characters for 27 languages.

The OTF variant of the font is included in the texlive-fonts-extra package, but there is a need for a separate Debian package to make it conveniently available for common use. Few users want to install all the fonts which are installed/pulled if you install texlive-fonts-extra, and even if you do, the Atkinson Hyperlegible font won't be seen by fontconfig.
