+Doulos SIL is a Unicode-based font family that attempts to provide a
+comprehensive inventory of glyphs needed for almost any Roman- or
+Cyrillic-based writing system, whether used for phonetic or orthographic
+needs. In addition, there is provision for other characters and symbols useful
+to linguists. This font makes use of state-of-the-art font technologies to
+support complex typographic issues, such as the need to position arbitrary
+combinations of base glyphs and diacritics optimally.
+
+Doulos is very similar to Times/Times New Roman, but only has a single face-
+regular. It is intended for use alongside other Times-like fonts where a range
+of styles (italic, bold) are not needed.
