What is gfs-neohellenic-math-fonts

GFS NeoHellenic Math is an almost Sans Serif font family. One of its main uses is for presentations, an area where (we believe) a commercial grade sans math font was not available up to now. The font family contains an extended glyph set including more than the standard math symbols such as vertically extended integrals, chess symbols, etc. It was commissioned to the Greek Font Society (GFS) by the Graduate Studies program “Studies in Mathematics” of the Department of Mathematics of the University of the Aegean, located on the Samos island, Greece. The design copyright belongs to the main designer of GFS, George Matthiopoulos. The OpenType Math Table embedded in the font was developed by the Mathematics Professor Antonis Tsolomitis.
