Summary

profile/design/fonts/OFL-Inter.txt carried the copyright line from the Google Fonts copy of the licence ("Copyright 2020 The Inter Project Authors"). The bundled font itself (name ID 0) and the upstream LICENSE.txt in rsms/inter both say "Copyright (c) 2016 The Inter Project Authors". This replaces the file with the upstream one, so the licence and the font match.

Bartosz spotted the same mismatch in review of selfpatch/ros2_medkit#715, which bundles the same Inter file and is fixed the same way there.

Checked

  • Inter: reserves no font name, so the bundled Latin subset (inter-latin.woff2) may keep its name under the OFL.
  • Oxanium: also reserves no font name, and OFL-Oxanium.txt already matches upstream (sevmeyer/oxanium) apart from whitespace.
  • IBM Plex: not bundled in this repository, so its "Plex" reserved name doesn't apply here.

Licence text only: no image or font changes, and nothing needs re-rendering.

OFL-Inter.txt carried the copyright line from the Google Fonts copy
(2020). The font file (name ID 0) and rsms/inter's LICENSE.txt both say
"Copyright (c) 2016 The Inter Project Authors", so ship the upstream
file, as in the ros2_medkit docs. Inter reserves no font name, so the
bundled Latin subset is fine under the OFL; OFL-Oxanium.txt already
matches upstream.
