There are four weights and italics for each. + +To install this package on a TDS-compliant TeX system download the +file "tex-archive"/install/fonts/merriweather.tds.zip, where the +preferred URL for "tex-archive" is http://mirror.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 +merriweather.map. + +To use, add + +\usepackage{merriweather} + +to the preamble of your document. This will activate Merriweather as the +main (serifed) text font and MerriweatherSans as the sans font. + +To activate Merriweather without MerriweatherSans, use + +\usepackage[rm]{merriweather} + +Similarly, to activate MerriweatherSans without Merriweather use + +\usepackage[sf]{merriweather} + +To use MerriweatherSans as the main text font, use + +\usepackage[sfdefault]{merriweather} + +This re-defines \familydefault, not \rmdefault. + +Options light, rmlight, sflight, black, rmblack, and sfblack choose +the light or heavy weights instead of the regular and bold weights, +respectively, for both or single families. + +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 +MerriweatherSans fonts; the serifed variants are not affected. + +Commands \merriweather and \merriweathersans select the Merriweather +and MerriweatherSans families, respectively. Commands \merriweatherlight, +\merriweatherblack, \merriweathersanslight, and \merriweathersansblack +allow for localized use of light or black variants. + +The only figure style supported is proportional semi-oldstyle. Font +encodings supported are OT1, T1, LY1 and TS1. + +The original fonts are available at http://www.google.com/webfonts +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 are licensed under the terms of the LaTeX Project +Public License. The maintainer of this package is Bob Tennent (rdt +at cs.queensu.ca) |
