+ LaTeX Support for Adobe Caslon Open Face
+ Version 1.0a
+
+Caslon Open Face font was desgined by Barnhart Brothers and Spindler
+in 1915. It was initially colled College Oldstyle and based on Le
+Moreau de Jeune from G. Peignot foundry. Its realtion to the
+classical Caslon font family is rather distant. Nevertheless it is a
+nice titling and display font.
+
+Adobe sells OTF version of this font, but other versions, including
+Type 1 are still available from other vendors, including
+http://www.fonts.com. Note that there are many ``free'' variants of
+this font available for downloading on various sites; I chose not to
+use them because of unclear license status.
+
+While modern engines like XeTeX and LuaTeX can use system fonts
+directly, the installation base of the other systems is huge, so it
+might be worthwile to release support files.
+
+The name pcarl follows the standard Fontname scheme for Adobe Caslon
+Open Face.
+
+This package was commssioned by Annals of Mathematics,
+http://annals.princeton.edu/.

+Changes:

+ Version 1.0a
+ Documentation cleanup
