Baker's +Junicode family of fonts. The Junicode font is primarily +for scholars and students of the Middle Ages, but it serves +users with a wide variety of interests. It tracks the +development of the Medieval Unicode Font Initiative (MUFI), +with its wealth of specialized medieval characters, but it +also provides many OpenType features that allow users to +access MUFI characters in accessible ways. + +This package supports the Junicode static fonts for +XeLaTeX, LuaLaTeX and [pdf]LaTeX. To install this +package on a TDS-compliant TeX system download the file +"tex-archive"/install/fonts/junicode.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 Junicode.map. + +Load Junicode in the usual way, with + + \usepackage{Junicode}. + +Several options are available: + +light + + The weight of the type for the main text is Light instead + of Regular. + +medium + + The weight of the type for the main text is Medium, + somewhat heavier than Regular. + +semibold + + The weight of bold type is somewhat lighter than the usual + bold. This may be a good choice if you have selected the + light option. + +condensed + + The width of the type is narrow. Note that bold type + cannot be condensed: when this option is selected, any + bold type in the text will have normal width. + +semicondensed + + The width of the type is narrower than the default but + wider than condensed. Note that bold type cannot be + semicondensed: when this option is selected, any bold type + in the text will have normal width. + +expanded + + The width of the type is wide. Note that light type cannot + be expanded: using both the light and the expanded options + will produce an error. + + +semiexpanded + + The width of the type is wider than the default but + narrower than expanded. Note that light type cannot be + semiexpanded: using both the light and the semiexpanded + options will produce an error. + +fonttype + + The type of font to look for (using XeLaTeX or LuaLaTeX): + OpenType or TrueType. These font types differ in the way + they draw outlines, and their hinting technologies are + very different. Values may be otf (the default) or ttf, + e.g. \usepackage[fonttype=ttf]{Junicode} + + +The following commands allow local use of specific figure +styles: \oldstylenums{..}, \liningnums{..}, \tabularnums{..}, +\proportionalnums{..}, \textsu{..}, \textinf{..}. + +The following font encodings are supported if type1 fonts +are used: OT1,T1,TS1,LY1,LGR + +Selecting Alternate Styles + +The Junicode font comes in thirty-eight styles: nineteen +roman and nineteen italic. You can switch to any of these +styles with one of the following commands, which will be +self-explanatory if you keep these abbreviations in mind: +Sm = Semi, Cond = Condensed, Exp = Expanded. + +\jBold +\jBoldItalic +\jCond +\jCondItalic +\jCondLight +\jCondLightItalic +\jCondMedium +\jCondMediumItalic +\jExp +\jExpItalic +\jExpBold +\jExpBoldItalic +\jExpMedium +\jExpMediumItalic +\jExpSmbold +\jExpSmboldItalic +\jItalic +\jLight +\jLightItalic +\jMedium +\jMediumItalic +\jRegular +\jSmbold +\jSmboldItalic +\jSmCond +\jSmCondItalic +\jSmCondLight +\jSmCondLightItalic +\jSmCondMedium +\jSmCondMediumItalic +\jSmExp +\jSmExpItalic +\jSmExpBold +\jSmExpBoldItalic +\jSmExpMedium +\jSmExpMediumItalic +\jSmExpSmbold +\jSmExpSmboldItalic + +There are additional commands for use with LuaLaTeX and +XeLaTeX that do nothing more than wrap fontspec commands; +see junicode-package.pdf in the doc directory. + +The otf and ttf fonts have been downloaded from + +https://github.com/psb1558/Junicode-font + +and are licensed under the SIL Open Font License, (version +1.1); the text may be found in the doc directory. +The pfb fonts were generated by cfftot1. + +The documentation and the LuaLaTeX/XeLaTeX support +is by Peter Baker and is licensed under the terms of the +LaTeX Project Public License.
