Description

When I added the missing families to this repo, some of the OFL.txt files did not include a gap between the copyright string (first line) and the rest of the text. e.g:

**Incorrect**
```

@davelab6 went on a mission and fixed a lot of these by hand. I've just written a quick [script](https://gist.github.com/m4rc1e/82f42fae7121f45aeb8d8a7c83f6d614) to see if we have any of them still out standing. The only incorrect OFL.txt files left are:

- [ ] ./ofl/kantumruy/OFL.txt
- [ ] ./ofl/kdamthmor/OFL.txt
- [ ] ./ofl/knewave/OFL.txt
- [ ] ./ofl/nanummyeongjo/OFL.txt

These are very messed up though. Eg,

**knewave**

A lot of the OFL.txt files use Win line endings, \r\n, whilst others use Unix, \n. I don't know whether this is a major issue though.
