 # Science Gothic
 ## libre variable font
 
-Science Gothic™ is a libre sans serif variable font. It has extreme weight and width variation, as well as contrast and slant options. The medium weight is based closely on Morris Fuller Benton’s Bank Gothic (1930–34) by Morris Fuller Benton for American Typefounders. Science Gothic adds four design axes (extreme weight and width, plus contrast and slant), a lowercase, and extensive language coverage. Science Gothic is a team effort, by Thomas Phinney, Brandon Buerkle and Vassil Kateliev. Special thanks to Igor Freiberger for his early contributions.

 This repo is where development and updates to this project can be found. Source files are in multiple formats: FontLab VFJ (vector font JSON) format, FontLab VFC (binary) format. Generated versions include UFO source files, and variable TTF end-user fonts. Occasionally we previously generated fonts corresponding to masters and instances, but these have not been not maintained going forward.
