Hi Samuel,
From my investigation, I identified the OpenSans font is packaged on
Ubuntu, Fedora, openSUSE but I failed to find the correspondent package
for RHEL 7.1
I will try more on it and send you the details, but if we don't have
RHEL 7.1 package to provide the OpenSans font we will need to find other
solution on that. Maybe use other font.
Below is the details for Ubuntu, Fedora and openSUSE.
On Ubuntu 15.4 (texlive-fonts-extra):
texlive-fonts-extra:
/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/fonts/truetype/public/opensans/OpenSans-Bold.ttf

Hi team,
I noticed that the new-ui design pattern for typography specifies
Helvetica Neue family in four different styles. This font family is
shipped with the latest versions of Mac OS X and iOS but it is not
available for free on Windows and Linux distributions.
I believe this might conflict with Kimchi license. Even if we buy or
rent a webfont license we can’t distribute the TTF, EOT, WOFF and SVG
files in our repositories. I think that we can’t even use a webfont
license in this case (pointing to a remote location or service like
Adobe Typekit or MyFonts) because most font-licensing services are
charging based on pre-paid pageviews.
Usually for web apps, mobile web apps and cloud based services we have
to buy a server license to store the webfont files within our servers,
but since Kimchi is an open-source project that anyone can check out
and run, every kimchi instance would have to buy their own font license.
We can set Helvetica as the default font-family in the CSS and if the
user doesn’t have this font installed the browser will load the next
available font (Arial or any other Sans-Serif) but since each font has
different sizes, some elements may not fit in the screen exactly like
they were seen in the mockups. Also, the UI specs recommends Helvetica
Neue in 5 different styles (Light, Roman, Regular, Medium and Bold),
most system fonts only have 3. We don’t have something like “Arial
Light” for instance.
My suggestion is that we replace Helvetica Neue for Open Sans because
it covers all the style specifications and it is licensed under Apache
2.0. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Samuel Guimarães
