[mpeg-OTspec] OS/2 PANOSE link broken

[Sairus Patel]

If ww.panose.com can be maintained, then what Vlad proposes sounds like a good idea. That Panose link in the OT spec has needed to be updated every few years.

Thanks,
Sairus

Hi all,

The redirects have been fixed and the links should now be active. However, since it’s inevitable that the web content can be moved / restructured in the future, I’d suggest to replace the link to a specific location http://monotype.com/services/pan1 (which redirects to monotype.de and is a current home of the Panose Spec) with the general purpose www.panose.com<http://www.panose.com>. Like I mentioned, the specific locations may change overtime but if and when it happens the redirect from www.panose.com<http://www.panose.com> to a new “home” will be maintained and this way the OpenType spec will not require any future updates.

Thank you and regards,
Vladimir

Hi,

The link to the PANOSE documentation is broken in https://www.microsoft.com/typography/otspec/os2.htm#pan

The current link is http://www.monotype.com/services/pan1 which gives an error 404.

The following URL is currently available:
http://monotype.de/services/pan1

Cheers,
