2.07. Identify, document, and report significant issues of social concern, of which they are aware, in software or related documents, to the employer or the client.



We did few discussions with some individuals who are relevant to the field and with some organizations. Some of these discussions were made by our client. We have noted few points from discussions with individuals. Specially Mr Pushpananda Ekanayake, who is the most successful type designer in Sri Lanka. (Currently more than 90% of Sinhala fonts we use designed by him as proprietary fonts )

  • Font piracy would go high with this type of a tool as it enables taking two font, interpolating them and making new font.
  • Serious font designer who have studied the art will go out of business due to free availability of simple tools 
    And ICTA also mentioned that they need our works to adhere to the currently standardized system.
