Translations
You are welcome to translate the posters. We want them to be available in as many languages as possible. We only ask you to make available publicly.
The posters use FontAwesome. If you don't have it in your computer, you will need to:
- Download FontAwesome. There is a big "Download" button on the homepage
- Uncompress the downloaded .zip file. Out comes a directory called
font-awesome-version_number - Inside that directory, find the
fonts/fontawesome-webfont.ttffile - Copy that file and paste it in your system's fonts directory
A suggested approach might be:
- clone the repository
- translate them
- Add 2 or 3 letter language code to the end of each poster - e.g. "screenreader_fr.pdf."
- send a pull request so we can merge them, or tell us where they are so we can advertise them here.

The posters are available under Creative Commons BY-NC-SA license - this means you can reuse, adapt them for non-commercial uses as long as you attribute the original project.
