Posting it here is not how you do that.
Here is the information you need: https://github.com/google/fonts/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md0 -
Well-done & Congratulations for making & releasing your Alilato font.
2. Why not expand your Alilato font to support Arabic-based South East Asian scripts namely Jawi, Pegon & Gundul?
Jawi > http://www.Jawiware.org/
Pegon > http://Nonosoft.jifisa.net/contoh-huruf-jawi-pegon/
Gundul > http://Nonosoft.jifisa.net/contoh-tulisan-arab-gundul/

Jawi > http://www.Jawiware.org/
Pegon > http://Nonosoft.jifisa.net/contoh-huruf-jawi-pegon/
Gundul > http://Nonosoft.jifisa.net/contoh-tulisan-arab-gundul/Thank you for mentioning this. There were a couple of recent threads about what accented letters to use for a wide variety of scripts that use the Latin alphabet; it's easy to forget that it isn't just Arabic that uses the Arabic script - Farsi and Urdu, as well as the former Turkish script are fairly well-known, but others such as those are relatively obscure in a Latin-dominated world.(Now I switch to addressing the original poster, I mention here to avoid confusion.)As for Google Fonts, IIRC they do have some fairly picky technical requirements for font submissions now. Since you have your own web site, if your goal is simply to put the font into people's hands so they can use it, you can always just put a link to a copy of the font on your page the same way you did for the PDF specimen. Of course, a lot more people will see it on Google Fonts, so that's still a worthwhile goal.Incidentally, I looked up the quotations used in specimens of your typeface. So now I've learned something new; I was not aware that Kahlil Gibran was a Maronite Christian.0
