These are + precisely the metrics contained in the psfonts/adobe subdirectories + avantgar, bookman, courier, helvetic, ncntrsbk, palatino, symbol, times, + zapfchan, and zapfding with the exception of the metrics corresponding to + the Helvetica-Light fonts. In addition there is a small suitcase + `8r reencoding' which contains the Textures support for the 8r encoding. + +lw35-nodvips.cpt.hqx + expands to a metrics suitcase `LW35 psnfss metrics' which contains a + subset of the suitcase `LW35 psnfss+dvips metrics'; all metrics which are + only relevant for backwards compatibility with dvips metrics have been + removed. For typesetting with the LaTeX2e psnfss package this smaller + suitcase is sufficient. In addition there is a small suitcase + `8r reencoding' which contains the Textures support for the 8r encoding. + +lucida-metrics.cpt.hqx + expands to a metrics suitcase `Lucida Bright psnfss metrics' which contains + all metrics in the psfonts/bh/* directories; this set covers most of the + fonts belonging to the Lucida Bright, Lucida NewMath, and Lucida Expert + sets. Two small suitcases `phvluc metrics' and `ptmluc metrics' contain + Lucida based math fonts for Helvetica and Times based on the fontinst + sources in the psnfss distribution. In addition there is a small suitcase + `8r reencoding' which contains the Textures support for the 8r encoding. + + +Installation +------------ + +Download the relevant *.cpt.hqx files as text files, debinhex them, and +extract the contents from the resulting archives. (Stuffit Expander will +perform the last two steps if the downloaded files are dropped onto it.) + +Then drop the resulting Textures metrics suitcases into the `TeX Fonts' +folder (or into `TeX Metrics'). The `8r reencoding' suitcases contained in +all three archives are identical. Only one is needed in the `TeX Fonts' or +the `TeX Metrics' folder. + +IMPORTANT: This will only install the *metrics* in the Textures sense, i.e., +the equivalent of the `tfm', `vf', and `dvips' subdirectories of individual +font directories. You will still need to download and install all the +required *.fd and *.sty files into a directory where Textures can find them +before the fonts can be used with LaTeX2e. + +Requirements: Textures 1.7 or later is required; version 1.7.5 or newer is +recommended. + + +More comments can be found in the README files contained in the individual +archives. |
