This repository contains NV Charter, a renamed version of XCharter, which is an extended version of Bitstream Charter.
This version does not contain any glyph alterations, it just contains a more clarified license which is also included as part of the distributed font files.
The font was renamed and re-exported with FontForge.
I've included the FontForge files in this repository.
In 1992 Bitstream donated a version of Charter, along with its version of Courier, to the X Consortium under terms that allowed the font to be modified and redistributed.
This font is not related to the proprietary version, Charter BT.
