+This is the README for the gofonts package, version 2019-06-04.
+
+This package provides LaTeX, pdfLaTeX, XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX
+support for the GoSans and GoMono families of fonts designed
+by the Bigelow & Holmes foundry for the Go project. GoSans
+is available in three weights: Regular, Medium and Bold
+(with corresponding italics). GoMono is available in Regular
+and Bold, with italics. Regular and italic small caps are provided.
+
+Notes on the design may be found at
+
+https://blog.golang.org/go-fonts
+
+To install this package on a TDS-compliant TeX system
+download the file "tex-archive"/install/fonts/gofonts.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 go.map.
+
+To use, add
+
+\usepackage{GoSans}
+
+to the preamble of your document. These will activate GoSans
+as the sans-serif text font. To activate it as the main text
+font, use
+
+\usepackage[sfdefault]{GoSans}
+
+Use
+
+\usepackage{GoMono}
+
+to activate GoMono as the monospaced text font. The nomap
+option will suppress the tex-text mapping of TeX "smart
+quotes" and other ligatures into unicode glyphs for xeLaTeX
+and luaLaTeX.
+
+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.
+
+Font encodings supported are OT1, T1, TS1, LY1 and LGR.
+
+For GoSans, the medium option activates that series as the
+default bold series. Commands \gomedium and \gobold allow for
+localized use of those series.
+
+Commands \golgr and \gomonolgr allow for localized use
+of LGR-encoded type1 fonts.
+
+
+The original TrueType fonts were obtained from
+
+https://go.googlesource.com/image
+
+and are licensed under the same open source license as the
+rest of the Go project's software. The text may be found in
+the doc directory. The type1 versions were created using
+fontforge. The 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 at
+rdt(at)cs(dot)queensu(dot)ca.
