+This is the README for the almendra package, version
+2019-05-11.
+
+This package provides LaTeX, pdfLaTeX, XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX
+support for the Almendra family of fonts, designed by
+Ana Sanfelippo. Almendra is a typeface design based on
+calligraphy. Its style is related to the chancery and gothic
+hands. There are regular and bold weights with matching
+italics. There is also a regular-weight small-caps.
+
+To install this package on a TDS-compliant
+TeX system download the file
+"tex-archive"/install/fonts/almendra.tds.zip where the
+preferred URL for "tex-archive" is http://mirrors.ctan.org.
+Unzip the archive at the root of an appropriate texmf tree,
+likely a personal or local tree. If necessary, update the
+file-name database (e.g., texhash). Update the font-map
+files by enabling the Map file almendra.map.
+
+To use, add
+
+\usepackage{almendra}
+
+to the preamble of your document. This will activate
+Almendra as the main (serifed) text font.
+
+LuaLaTeX and xeLaTeX users who might prefer type1 fonts or
+who wish to avoid fontspec may use the type1 option.
+
+Options scaled=<number> or scale=<number> may be used to
+scale the fonts.
+
+The only figure style is proportional oldstyle.
+
+Font encodings supported are OT1, T1, LY1, and TS1.
+
+The original Truetype fonts were obtained from
+
+https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Almendra
+
+and are licensed under the SIL Open Font License,
+version 1.1; the text may be found in the doc directory.
+The type1 versions were created using fontforge. The
+support files were created using autoinst and otftotfm and
+are licensed under the terms of the LaTeX Project Public
+License. The maintainer of this package is Bob Tennent (rdt
+at cs.queensu.ca)
