ABOUT

Thatcher Ulrich

New York-based programmer who created the free sans family Tuffy (2005). It has a large character set that covers Greek, Cyrillic, and Indic, and has the new rupee symbol. In 2010, Barta Karoly updated the Tuffy package and placed it here.

Thatcher writes: Karoly Barta did a ton of work creating Greek, Cyrillic and accented characters for Tuffy, which he has generously contributed back to the public domain Tuffy. Also, Michael Everson created a Tuffy-derived font, Rupakara, which adds the new Indian Rupee Sign, plus many other currency symbols, and a full set of letters commonly used to transliterate Indian languages. Rupakara is under the SIL Open Font License, but Michael also agreed to let me merge his new characters into the public domain Tuffy.
