Re: [dita] Re: Fonts for committee note
Hi, Paul -- Thanks, and my apologies for only checking list
      e-mail; I did not see that you had sent me e-mail directly that
      had a new committee note template. Kudos to you for turning around
      the font issue so quickly!

    

    
Best,

      Kris

Hi Kris and all,
        

        

        
We are planning to use Liberation Mono for a monospaced
          font. (As noted in Wikipedia, "Liberation
            Mono is styled closer to Liberation Sans than Monotype's
          Courier New, though its
            metrics match with Courier New.")

        
Taking the next step, I'm not aware of a need in our
          templates for a font using serifs, but there is a "Liberation
          Serif" if needed.

        

        

        
The MS-Word based Notes template I recently sent (to Kris)
          provides four monospaced "styles" using the Liberation Mono
          font.

        
In that template, the styles are called:

        
- code and code small (9 and 8 pt respectively, with a gray
          background box or outline

        
- example and example small (9 and 8, light gray
          background, no box)

        

        

        
Best regards,

        
Paul

We'll need a monospaced font also. Liberation Sans only
              has the following:

            
              
Regular

              
Bold

              
Italic

              
Bold italic

              Best,
