+
+`Computer Modern Bright' is a family of sans serif fonts for
+TeX and LaTeX, based on Donald Knuth's `Computer Modern'.
+It comprises OT1, T1 and TS1 encoded text fonts of various
+shapes as well as all the fonts necessary for mathematical
+typesetting, including the AMS symbols. CM Bright is
+accompanied by a matching family of monospaced fonts,
+`Computer Modern Typewriter Light'.
+
+This distribution comprises
+
+* the fonts in the Metafont format,
+
+* the TeX font metrics,
+
+* the LaTeX macro package cmbright.sty and the related font
+ definition files
+
+The CM Bright fonts are available in the Type1 format, too.
+See <http://www.micropress-inc.com/fonts/brmath/brmain.htm>.
+
+To install, move all files to the corresponding directories
+of your TeX system. In case yor TeX system does not support
+the use of fonts in the obsolete Metafont format, omit the
+directories fonts/source and doc/fonts.
+
+Documentation regarding the use of the fonts can be found in
+the document cmbright.pdf.
+
+Additional documentation regarding the license of the
+Metafont sources of the CM-Bright fonts can be found in the
+directory texmf/doc/fonts/cmbright.
+
+
+License
+=======
+The MF sources of the CM Bright and CM Typewriter Light
+fonts are subject to the LPPL; see the files in the
+directory doc/fonts/cmbright.
+
+The LaTeX macros to use the CM Bright and CM Typewriter Light
+fonts are separately(!) subject to the LPPL, too; see the
+notice in the file source/latex/cmbrght/cmbright.dtx.
+
+
+History
+=======
+*** 2005-04-13**
+
+ The fonts are now declared as continuously scalable, so
+ that arbitrary sizes are supported.
+ The obsolete hacks regarding the use of \oldstylenums
+ and \textregistered have been abolished.
+ When the package is loaded with the option
+ [slantedGreek], all upright uppercase Greek letters are
+ made available, too
+ Bug fix re. default definition of \Gamma.
+ The package will fix the (La)TeX logos to suit CM-Bright.
+ The package documentation now acts as a font sample,
+ too.
+ Source file cmbright.fdd abolished; all sources are in
+ the .dtx file now.
+ Distribution rearranged \`a la TDS.
+
+*** 2002-05-25 ***
+
+ Fixed tbsymb.mf and all TFM's of the TC Bright fonts,
+ which had wong \fontdimen's; notice that the the font
+ shapes are unchanged!
+ Documentation (cmbright.dtx) cleaned up.
+
+*** 2002-05-11 ***
+
+ fixed cmbr8.tfm cmbr9.tfm cmbrmb10.tfm cmbrmi8.tfm
+ cmbrmi9.tfm cmbrsl8.tfm cmbrsl9.tfm;
+ TFMs are no longer mentioned in manifest.txt
+
+*** 2000-06-30 ***
+
+ cmbright v7.1: Bug fix. Loading amsfonts.sty with the
+ option [psamsfonts] would use the `roman' AMS fonts instead
+ of the `Bright' ones.
+ Improved documentation.
+
+*** 2000-02-09 ***
+
+ fonts v1.0f: Fixed all Euro symbols.
+
+*** 1999-05-12 ***
+
+ documentation revisited and reorganized
+
+*** 1999-03-28 ***
+
+ cmbright.sty v6.9: new option [slantedGreek];
+
+*** 1998-12-11 ***
+
+ cmbright.sty v6.7: Fixed the math font setup, so that
+ \mathbold acts on lowercase greek, too.
+ fonts v1.0e: improved Euro symbol (the metrics remain
+ unchanged!)
+
+*** 1998-02-02 ***
+
+ fd files v7.3: font sizes 29.86 and 35.83 pt suppported
+
+*** 1998-01-19 ***
+
+ Fixed cmbright.ins to prevent problems with Unix (teTeX):
+ Do not generate uppercase filenames automatically.
+ cmbright.ins now TDS-enabled.
+ Added oinst.ins for LaTeX < Dec.1996.
+
+*** 1997-09-11 ***
+
+ cmbright.sty v6.6: added \relax after \ProcessOptions,
+ removed spurious spaces in font definitions
+
+ fd files v7.2: forced \hyphenchar\font45 in OT1 fonts,
+ removed spurious spaces in font definitions
+
+ included the new installation script, which was
+ erroneously lacking in the previous distribution :-(
+
+*** 1997-06-03 ***
+
+ fixed a bug in the installation script: the fd files are
+ now generated with mixed-case names if necessary (i.e.
+ when running an obsolete LaTeX release on Unix)
+
+ fonts, v1.0d: corrected height of arithmetic symbols in
+ T1/TS1 fonts;
+
+*** 1997-05-26 ***
+
+ Fonts, v1.0c: changed lowercase hachek accent in order
+ to avoid METAFONT errors occurring with certain MF modes;
+ fixed `root' symbol and big circles in TS1 fonts;
+ corrected rule_width# in semibold fonts, which had been
+ larger than it is in the bx fonts;
+
+*** 1997/05/22 ***
+
+ fd files v7.0: lowercase filenames
+
+ fonts v1.0b: br17pt.mf fixed (o#, apex_o#)
+
+ cmbright.sty v6.4: minor fixes
+
+ enhanced documentation
+
+*** 1996/11/20 ***
+
+ Documentation update only, e-mail address added.
+
+*** 1996/07/02 ***
+
+ cmbright.sty, v6.2: The code for selecting font size and
+ \baselineskip has been basically changed. The default
+ font sizes defined in the class file will no longer be
+ changed. The size macros like \normalsize will no longer
+ be redefined. Same font sizes will always get the same
+ leading:
+
+ size \baselineskip
+ 8pt 10.00pt
+ 9pt 11.25pt
+ 10pt 12.50pt
+ 11pt 13.70pt
+ 12pt 15.00pt
+
+ A new option [standard-baselineskips] enables you to
+ suppress the enlarged \baseselineskip values.
+
+ The commands \textregistered, \pounds, \textsterling and
+ \mathsterling have been made working; they will use the
+ roman text font.
+
+ font definition files, v6.0: In all .fd files octal
+ numbers have been changed to decimal ones, in order to
+ avoid conflicts with possibly active quote characters.
+
+ fonts, v1.0: erroneous comments fixed
+
+*** 1996/05/02 ***
+
+ fonts: version 1.0
+ font definition files: 5.0
+ LaTeX package `cmbright': 5.0
+
+ The first `final' release, including the AMS fonts.
