This can (of course) be automated with otfinfo (as with the previous
renaming), but let us keep it short and sweet for the moment.

Description: ParaType Sans font family
The fonts next to standard Latin and Cyrillic character sets contain signs of
title languages of the national republics of Russian Federation and support
the most of the languages of neighboring countries.
PT Sans is a type family of universal use. It consists of 8 styles:
regular and bold weights with corresponding italics form a standard
computer font family; two narrow styles (regular and bold) are intended
for documents that require tight set; two caption styles (regular and
bold) are for texts of small point sizes. The design combines
traditional conservative appearance with modern trends of humanistic
sans serif and characterized by enhanced legibility. These features
beside conventional use in business applications and printed stuff made
the fonts quite useable for direction and guide signs, schemes, screens
of information kiosks and other objects of urban visual communications.

The fonts next to standard Latin and Cyrillic character sets contain
signs of title languages of the national republics of Russian
Federation and support the most of the languages of neighboring
countries. The fonts were developed and released by ParaType in 2009
with financial support from Federal Agency of Print and Mass
Communications of Russian Federation. Design - Alexandra Korolkova with
assistance of Olga Umpeleva and supervision of Vladimir Yefimov.
