github.com | OTF + Type1 (with AFM files) | AGPLv3 | BZ #1458840 | urw-base35-fonts | urw-base35-fonts |
Caveats
For now, we have to distribute both Type1 (with AFM files) and OTF formats of these fonts, because there are still many applications which expect the Type1 formats to be present in the system.
