Whole Collection: Ensure copyright notices are uniform #751

Open davelab6 opened 7 years ago

davelab6 commented 7 years ago

Per https://github.com/google/fonts/pull/743 then we should do a pass that gets all TTF copyright strings in a family to match, and to match their strings in METADATA.pb

Armata-Regular.ttf is broken, the nameID=0 has a OFL license text string, too long.

Astloch-Bold.ttf is broken, the nameID=0 strings are both empty

@davelab6 I've written a copyright string generator for our upstream Glyphs scripts. If we manage to get all the upstreams listed in our GF repo doc, this will work. It will generate strings in the following manner:

Copyright YYYY The Font-Family Project Authors (http://github.com/user/font-repo)

We wont get upstreams in glyphs format for everything, and we wont get upstreams in any src format before we need to fix everything. Thus we need binary checks for everything your glyphsapp script checks.
