  "github_readme_excerpt": "# EB Garamond\n*Claude Garamont\u2019s designs go open source*\n\nThis project aims at providing a free version of the Garamond types, based on the Designs of the Berner specimen from 1592.\n\nIn the end, the fonts shall cover extended latin, greek and cyrillic scripts in different styles (regular, italic, bold, bolditalic) and design sizes. There are also fonts containing initials based on those found in a 16th century french bible print. The fonts make heavy use of opentype features for specialities like small caps or different number styles as well as for imitating renaissance typography.\n\nFor the use with Xe- and LuaLaTeX I\u2019m working on a configuration for mycrotype. For the use on the web via @fontface, the make-script produces eot and woff files which can be found in the web section. But be aware that they are not subset but contain the whole fonts, which might result in undesirably big files. Webfont hosters like googlefonts or fontsquirrel might provide better solutions.\n\n## Fonts in this repository\n\n| Font | Description |\n|------|-------------|\n| EBGaramond-Initials | Initials\n| EBGaramond-InitialsF1 | Background (the ornament) of initials\n| EBGaramond-InitialsF2 | Foreground (the letter) of initials\n| EBGaramond-Lettrines | Workbench for Initials fonts (not included in releases)\n| EBGaramond08-Italic | Italic font for design size 8pt (very rough spacing!)\n| EBGaramond08-Regular | Regular font for design size 8pt\n| EBGaramond12-AllSC | All smallcaps font for programs that ignore opentype features\n| EBGaramond12-Italic | Italic font for design size 12pt\n| EBGaramond12-Regular | Regular font for design size 12pt\n| EBGaramond12-Bold | Bold font for design size 12pt (very rough/unusable; not included in releases)\n| EBGaramondSC08-Regular | Smallcaps font for programs that ignore opentype features (12pt)\n| EBGaramondSC08-Regular | Smallcaps font for programs that ignore opentype features (12pt)\n\n\nThis is a work in progress, so expect bugs!
