Here is my offering, a Font named LouisBraille.ttf and LouisBraille.otf I built
this myself and I have the source file for it. This has all the standard ASCII
Braille letters well as a full set of Unicode Braille glyphs as well. They are
free to use so feel free to include them in the BrailleZephyr program that
would solve the issue with getting SimBraille installed.
Thanks for donating these fonts. I'm wondering if I should include these
fonts in the liblouis distribution. Or would these be better of donating
them to a dedicated font hosting place such as
https://fontlibrary.org/?
If we decide to include them in liblouis then I think it would be
helpful to include the source file to build/modify the font and a
standard license. The Fontlibrary seems to recommend the Open Font
License (
https://fontlibrary.org/en/guidebook/font_licensing).
What do you think?
Thanks
Christian
