If necessary, update the +file-name database (e.g., texhash). Update the font-map +files by enabling the Map file CharisSIL.map. + +To use, add + +\usepackage{CharisSIL} + +to the preamble of your document. This will activate +CharisSIL as the main (serifed) text font. Regular, +Italic, Bold and BoldItalic styles are available. Font +encodings supported are OT1, T1, TS1, LY1 and T2A/B/C. +The only figure style is tabular-lining. + +If LuaLaTeX and xeLaTeX users prefer type1 fonts or wish to +avoid fontspec they may use the type1 option. + +Options scaled=<number> or scale=<number> may be used to +scale the fonts. + +The fonts 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 LaTeX +support files were created using autoinst 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). |
