Foreword
- This template plays a huge part in the lifecycle of our font packages.
- Frames that use this style are redaction tips. Please remove them from your page once they are no longer necessary. Do the same for the lorem ipsum bits.
- Remember the more complete and accurate the information you add is, the more likely a font is to be packaged and widely used.
- Do not forget to update the page categorization once the font status changes.
