Greetings, all. I have updated the font to include ~150 more latin characters to fill most of the gaps.
Something a bit disturbing, contained in this font is the message:
Copyright (c) 2012 Sabrina Mariela Lopez (typesenses@...3280...), with Reserved Font Name "Euphoria Script"
Makes no mention of the license it's supposed to be within the font it's self. I will have to do more digging to ensure this font is editable as we have assumed.
I have not added any Russian characters, however I am happy to if someone can confirm the cursive version of Russian characters bear any at all resemblence to the english cursive characters. For example, is this chart fairly correct? : https://russianreport.files.wordpress.com/2008/04/cyrillic-alphabet-chart1.j...
To test the extended version of the font with extended character set, it can be downloaded here: http://www.opendesignstudio.org/inkscape/EuphoriaScript-Regular_extended.zip
Please do let me know what you think, or any errors I may have made.
Thanks. -C

Before we all worry too much about specific details of the font, we should probably be clear on how we want to use it first:
1.) Is the trademarked slogan supposed to be translated at all?
In our trademark policy the only reference to translation is in the context of the software itself (so e.g. a German translation of Inkscape's UI can still be described as Inkscape™.
https://inkscape.org/en/about/trademark-policy/
The policy specifies that the slogan is trademarked, but does not address whether translations of the trademark would be covered too. My non-lawyerly guess would be that they are not. Fortunately, we do have a way to ask for clarification from the more lawyerly types - email to trademark@...3279...
It does not specifically appear we are *prohibited* from translating the slogan (which would be silly). But just that (I guess) it wouldn't be protected as a trademark. I suspect that if we feel that is important, we could look into registering it in other countries/languages. I'd suspect there'd be some fee involved.
2.) Is the font supposed to be used for anything else than for the slogan "Draw freely." ?
ad 1.)To my understanding, any translation will loose its 'trademark' property (not sure, though). Translating the web site for German, I never considered to translate the trademarked slogan... (only in parentheses, as an explanation - it would have sounded off, anyway, to me). The words can be understood with even the most basic set of English vocabulary. ('Draw' and 'free' are among the first words students learn at school.) I personnally don't see a need to translate it, and would rather like to keep the trademark / authenticity.
ad 2.) For the question about how the font was planned to be used - CR, did you plan anything for it? Or was this just intended for the 'Logo' portion?

It seems to have Latin-1 coverage only. It doesn't have Polish letters except ó and Ó (missing: ĄĆĘŁŃŚŻŹ ąćęłńśźż), Cyrillic, or Greek. It does have ß, ™, æ, œ, ð, þ, §, ½, €, ¢, «, », ×, ÷ and a few other glyphs.
The font was made via a Kickstarter campaign and it seems it doesn't have any "official" home, so I'm not sure how these glyphs could be added. On the other hand, at least it doesn't have a nonsensical cursive glyph for ł. http://www.twardoch.com/download/polishhowto/stroke.html

And the winner (by quite a bit, actually) is Euphoria Script!
I guess I missed all the excitement. But does it have glyphs for anything other than Latin and extended Latin?
