Information about Averia font family:
Avería ("breakdown" or "mechanical damage" in Spanish - related to the root
of the English word "average") is a Unicode typeface family created from the
average of all fonts on the computer of the creator, Dan Sayers. The process
is described at http://iotic.com/averia/. All metrics are the result of an
averaging process. The included glyphs are those that existed in a majority
of the source fonts - which are the following:
Range Description
U+0020-U+007E Basic Latin
U+00A0-U+00FF Latin-1 Supplement
And some glyphs from the following:
Range Description
U+0100-U+017F Latin Extended-A
U+0180-U+021F Latin Extended-B
U+02B0-U+02FF Spacing Modifier Letters
U+0370-U+03D5 Greek
U+2000-U+2122 General Punctuation
U+2200-U+25CS Mathematical Operators
Avería exists in Regular, Bold, Italic, Bold Italic, Light and Light Italic
styles - as well as a "Gruesa" semi-italic variant made from an average of
all 725 source fonts.
Legal info:
The Averia Libre families of fonts are based on the average of all 725 fonts
in the Google Web Fonts project, released under the SIL Open Font
License, as of 9 Nov 2011.
The upstream confirm:
"all of the Averîa Libre fonts are strictly composed of the average of
OFL fonts".
Regards,
Alfonso
