Busra v9.000

This release of Busra is a newly updated version of the Khmer Busra font formerly part of the Mondulkiri project. There have been major changes since version 7.100:

• The font family is now called "Busra" so it and the old "Khmer Busra" can be installed at the same time.
• There are six weights: ExtraLight, Light, Regular, Medium, SemiBold, and Bold. This also replaces the older Khmer Mondulkiri family.
• Oblique (italic) styles are not included but will be provided in a later release.
• Glyph outlines have been revised and improved.
• OpenType support has been rewritten, supporting latest best practice in Khmer text encoding.
• Support for Graphite and AAT rendering has been removed.
• Latin glyphs have been replaced with ones specifically designed to work well with the Khmer glyphs.
• Default line spacing has updated to best practice. This could affect older Windows apps.
• Three font formats are provided: OpenType (.ttf) for desktop use and WOFF/WOFF2 for the web.

Busra will soon be available from the Busra Download Page (https://software.sil.org/busra/download/)
