     1.8 +The Droid typeface family was designed in the fall of 2006 by Ascender's Steve
     1.9 +Matteson, as a commission from Google to create a set of system fonts for its
    1.10 +Android platform. The goal was to provide optimal quality and comfort on a
    1.11 +mobile handset when rendered in application menus, web browsers and for other
    1.12 +screen text. The Droid family of fonts consists of Droid Serif, Droid Sans and
    1.13 +Droid Sans Mono, licensed under the Apache License version 2.0, and available in
    1.14 +the Android Git at
    1.15 +http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/frameworks/base.git;a=tree;f=data/fonts
    1.16 +as TrueType files.
    1.17 +
    1.18 +This package includes the original TrueType fonts released under the Apache
    1.19 +License version 2.0.
    1.20 +
    1.21 +Notice that this package does not support the Droid Pro family sold by Ascender.
