A font designer that is hosting font on Google fonts has released a latest font version which does not fit with my design. I rather use the previous version of the font and self host it. So I have generated the font-face kit via https://www.fontsquirrel.com/tools/webfont-generator and renamed the font to ;
@font-face {
font-family: 'Myfontname';
src: url('myfontname.woff2') format('woff2'), url('myfontname.woff') format('woff');
font-weight: 500;
font-style: normal;
}
Now since I have changed the font metrics within the file
by OFL I need to change the font name as well.
This is the part that confuses me. I want to leave all the credits and copyright of the original font designer but becuase I am forced to change the font name do I have to change the copyright, designer website and credits also?
The font will be packaged with WordPress theme so the OFL redistribution clause should be satisfied with that but the renaming part is very confusing.
