The fonts are visually compatible with URW++ Century Schoolbook L, URW++ Nimbus Sans L and URW++ Nimbus Mono L families, respectively. The (free) fonts include David (3 weights; based on Charter), Aharoni (4 weights; based on URW++ Gothic L), Frank Ruehl (4 weights; based on URW++ Century Schoolbook L), CaladingsCLM, DrugulinCLM (2 weights; based on URW++ Nimbus Roman No9 L), ElliniaCLM (4 weights), MiriamCLM (2 weights), YehudaCLM (2 weights; based on Tekton), Nachlieli (4 weights; based on URW++ Nimbus Sans L), and Miriam Mono (4 weights; based on URW++ Nimbus Mono L). The fonts were developed by Maxim Iorsh at the Technion from 2002-2004. Nachlieli-Light is also here.
