It provides the following fonts: + +URWAntiquaT-RegularCondensed +URWGroteskT-Bold +NimbusRomanNo9L-Regular +NimbusSansL-Regular + +in upright, slanted, small caps and slanted small caps versions (with a +little cheating, however), in OT1, T1, 8r and OT4 encodings. + +NimbusRomanNo9L-Regular and NimbusSansL-Regular are close to Adobe Times +Roman and Adobe Helvetica, respectively. The most interesting is +URWGroteskT-Bold which, being extremely bold, is useful for decorative +work, titling etc. + +INSTALLATION + +Assuming your TeX conforms with the TDS: + +1) move the three tfm directories from ./tfm/ to $TEXMF/fonts/tfm/urw/ +2) move the three vf directories from ./vf/ to $TEXMF/fonts/vf/urw/ +3) move the three afm directories from ./afm/ to $TEXMF/fonts/afm/urw/ +4) move the three pfa directories from ./pfa/ to $TEXMF/fonts/type1/urw/ +5) move the *.fd and *.sty files from ./latex2e/ to $TEXMF/tex/latex/urw/ +6) add the contents of ./fontname/urw.map to $TEXMF/fontname/urw.map +7) add the contents of ./dvips/psfonts.map to $TEXMF/dvips/misc/psfonts.map +8) texhash + +In case you don't use the (local) OT4 encoding, you may delete all the files: +*8p.vf, *8p.tfm and ot4*.fd. + +USAGE + +The package urw.sty provides the following font declarations and commands: + +\antiquafamily \textantiqua{ } +\grotesqfamily \textgrotesq{ } +\nimbusfamily \textnimbus{ } +\nimbussffamily \textnimbussf{ } + +which activate the desired font families. Antiqua, nimbus and nimbussf +are available only in medium (m) series, grotesq --- only in bold (b) series. +The available shapes are: + +\upshape regular +\itshape actually a slanted (oblique) shape +\scshape small caps +\slshape slanted small caps + +Additionally there are three styles: antiqua.sty, grotesq.sty and +nimbus.sty (the last one for both regular and sans serif fonts) that +(attempt to) replace the default roman (and sans serif in case of +nimbus.sty) font families with the new ones. Since only the small number +of series/shape combinations are available, they are not very useful, +however. + +COMMENTS +Please send all the comments regarding the generated virtual fonts to +ToMasz Wierzbicki <tomasz@tcs.uni.wroc.pl>. |
