The language code is GL

The translation is "Debuxa con liberdade"

hi,

I am creating translations of the inkscape about box. I need to know how does to write "Draw Freely" in your language.

Please, send me the translation and the language code. Also, translate (in the .po file) the string "about.svg" to "about.CODE.svg" (where CODE must be replaced by your language code. In my case it is translated to "about.pt_BR.svg" because I speak brazilian portuguese.

I would prefer to receive an SVG containing the phrase written in the proper way (if you wish to do that you probably will need to install the Pushkin font that I am sending attached to this email)

I also accept strings, but you must understand that I do not necessarily understand your language and I have no way to be sure what is the proper way of writting it. If you choose to send me a string, I will simply copy it to the about box image using the Pushkin font. If this font is not adequate to your specific language/alphabet, then you should better provide an svg, which is my prefered way of receiving it. (don't forget to convert text to curves before sending me the file because I don't necessarily have the fonts needed to render it properly!)

best luck, Felipe Sanches (a.k.a. JucaBlues)

Felipe, the Pushkin font does not appear to be a good choice for displaying localized text, since it does not cover most accented characters (it doesn't display my language at all). I would strongly recommend choosing a pan-Unicode font. Does it need to be GPL or OFL?

If so, and you want a decorative font, I would recommend VN URW Chancery L from the URWVN font pack (GPL) [1]. You can find other recommended pan-Unicode fonts at [2] and a lot of useful information at the Unicode Font Guide [3].

"Draw Freely" in Vietnamese (language code "vi") is:

Vẽ Tự Do

but it requires a Unicode font.
