The Hershey Fonts
-----------------

The single-line stroke fonts in hershey-line-fonts.mjs (futural / Roman
Simplex, scripts / Script Simplex) are derived from the Hershey fonts,
originally created by Dr. Allen V. Hershey while working at the U.S.
National Bureau of Standards, and distributed in digitized form through
the Usenet font release coordinated by the USE (Usenet Font Consortium).

The terms of that distribution:

  This distribution of the Hershey Fonts may be used by anyone for any
  purpose, commercial or otherwise, providing that:

  1. The following acknowledgements must be distributed with the font
     data:
       - The Hershey Fonts were originally created by Dr. A. V. Hershey
         while working at the U. S. National Bureau of Standards.
       - The format of the Font data in this distribution was originally
         created by:
           James Hurt
           Cognition, Inc.
           900 Technology Park Drive
           Billerica, MA 01821
           (mit-eddie!ci-dandelion!hurt)

  2. The font data in this distribution may be converted into any other
     format *EXCEPT* the format distributed by the U.S. NTIS (which
     organization holds the rights to the distribution and use of the
     font data in that particular format). Not that anybody would really
     *want* to use their format... each point is described in eight
     bytes as "xxx yyy:", where xxx and yyy are the coordinate values as
     ASCII numbers.

The JHF-format source files were obtained from the freely distributed
collection at github.com/kamalmostafa/hershey-fonts.
