Li*t*eration instead of Li*b*eration in the name of the font in the "downloads" page #740

Closed liar666 closed 2 years ago

liar666 commented 2 years ago

Just a quick note: in the "downloads" page of your web site (https://www.nerdfonts.com/), the "Liberation" font is misnamed "Literation".

Since the error is in the SVG that "demo"es this font appearance, the bug might be in some code that generates this SVG.

Well, the font is not 'misnamed', it has been renamed.

Some of the original fonts allow modifications to the font, but the modified fonts need to have a different name. You see a Reserved Font Name comment under that fonts, and it is also the case with Liberation.

The fonts are under the SIL open font license. You find details about the reserverd font names (RFN) here

It's the same with AnonymousPro -> Anonymice; Cascadia Code -> Caskaydia Cove; Hasklig -> Hasklug, ...

So, it is as intended; but thank you for reporting :-)
