This package only contains the sans, sans-bold, serif, serif-bold,
mono and mono-bold variants. For additional variants, see the
ttf-dejavu-extra package.

This font is derived from the x3270 font, which, in turn, was translated
from the one in Georgia Tech's 3270tool, which was itself hand-copied
from a 3270 terminal.
.
While looking reasonably close to its bitmap ancestors, this is a vector
font that looks good at any size. Its recommended use is, obviously, a
text terminal, same as nearly half a century ago.
