+============================================================
+ Monotype TimesNR font pack
+============================================================
+ 2005-06-01

+ w-a-schmidt(at)gmx.net
+
+This collection comprises tfm, vf, fd and font mapping files
+to use the Monotype TimesNR family of Type1 fonts with TeX
+on the Un*x or PC platform. It does, however, _not_ include
+the actual Type1 fonts, which are to be purchased from
+Agfa-Monotype. In order to support separate design sizes
+and real small capitals, the following Type1 fonts are
+required:
+
+ TimesNRMT
+ TimesNRExpertMT
+ TimesNRMT-Italic
+ TimesNRMT-Bold
+ TimesNRMT-BoldItalic
+ TimesNRSevenMT
+ TimesNRSevenMT-Italic
+ TimesNRSevenMT-Bold
+ TimesNRSevenMT-BoldItalic
+ TimesSmallTextMT
+ TimesSmallTextMT-Italic
+ TimesSmallTextMT-Bold
+
+The below installation instructions assume a TDS-compliant
+TeX system, such as teTeX, fpTeX, MikTeX or VTeX/Free. The
+directory name "texmf" refers to the root directory of the
+TDS directory tree. In case your TeX systems has more than
+one such directory tree, the documentation should tell you
+where to install new files.

+ preliminary release
+
+
+
+Updating from the preliminary 2004-01-11 release
+------------------------------------------------
+As compared with the preliminary release, a number of file
+names as well as the font mapping tables have been changed.
+Please, remove that release _entirely_ before installing the
+current one, and remove the obsolete font mapping data from
+the configuration.
+
+
+
+Installing the TimesNR Type1 fonts
+----------------------------------
+You need not repeat this step, when updating from the
+2004-09-17 release!
+
+The Type1 (.pfb) font files, as supplied by Monotype, are to
+be renamed for use with TeX:
+
+Font name: File name (Monotype): File name (TeX)
+TimesNRSevenMT-BoldItalic svbi____.pfb mntbi8a7.pfb
+TimesNRSevenMT-Bold svb_____.pfb mntb8a7.pfb
+TimesNRSevenMT-Italic svi_____.pfb mntri8a7.pfb
+TimesNRSevenMT sv______.pfb mntr8a7.pfb
+TimesNRMT-BoldItalic timbi___.pfb mntbi8a.pfb
+TimesNRMT-Bold timb____.pfb mntb8a.pfb
+TimesNRMT-Italic timi____.pfb mntri8a.pfb
+TimesNRMT tim_____.pfb mntr8a.pfb
+TimesSmallTextMT-Bold tstb____.pfb mntb8a5.pfb
+TimesSmallTextMT-Italic tsti____.pfb mntri8a5.pfb
+TimesSmallTextMT tst_____.pfb mntr8a5.pfb
+TimesNRExpertMT tiy_____.pfb mntr8x.pfb
+
+Copy them to the directory
+
+ texmf/fonts/type1/monotype/timesnew/
+
+of your TeX system
+
+The related .afm files should go into the directory
+
+ texmf/fonts/afm/monotype/timesnew/
+
+with file names changed correspondingly.
+
+
+
+Installing the support files
+----------------------------
+Unpack the ZIP archive mnt.zip in the directory "texmf"
+of your TeX system; thus, all files will be copied to the
+appropriate directories.
+
+
+
+Updating the filename database
+------------------------------
+Certain TeX systems require manually updating of a "filename
+database" after adding of new files. Please, consult the
+documentation of your TeX system!
+
+
+
+Configuring your TeX system
+---------------------------
+You need not repeat this step, when updating from the
+2004-09-17 release!
+
+The present distribution includes several font map files for
+the Monotype TimesNR fonts. You need to configure your TeX
+system so that an appropriate files are actually used. The
+required steps depend on the particular TeX system.
+Particular sets of instructions are provided below for the
+following systems:
+
+ * teTeX
+ * VTeX/Free
+
+With other TeX systems such as MikTeX, consult the related
+documentation how to install an additional font map file.
+The name of the map file to be used for TimesNR is
+"mnt.map". Two copies of this file reside in the
+directories texmf/dvips/config and texmf/fonts/map/dvips.
+
+
+Configuring teTeX
+-----------------
+Use the shell script "updmap" to add the font map file named
+"mnt.map" to the configuration. See the documentation of
+your particular teTeX version how to use the script. With
+teTeX 2.0 and above, execute the following commands:
+
+ texhash
+ updmap --enable Map mnt.map
+
+
+Configuring VTeX/Free
+---------------------
+Make VTeX read the additional font map ("aliasing") file
+mnt.ali. This is usually accomplished by putting a record
+for this file into each of the configuration files
+
+ texmf/vtex/config/pdf.fm
+and
+ texmf/vtex/config/ps.fm
+
+"mnt.ali" is to be added to the TYPE1 section of the
+above-mentioned files:
+
+ TYPE1 {
+ ...
+ mnt.ali
+ }
+
+
+
+Using the TimesNR fonts with TeX
+--------------------------------
+See the file timesnew.txt, which should now reside in the
+directory texmf/doc/fonts/monotype/.
+
+
+
+Known problems
+--------------
+The kerning tables of the TimesNR fonts exhibit several
+deficiences, affecting accented characters and letter pairs
+that are common in languages other than English.
+These flaws were not corrected in the TeX font metrics fo far.
+
+
+
+Legal notice
