+Winfonts: a package to use the basic Windows truetype fonts
+===========================================================
+
+This package provide all the files needed to use the standard Windows
+fonts in T1 encoding. The fonts supported are:
+
+ Arial Franklin Gothic Tahoma
+ Comic Sans Georgia Times
+ Courier New Palatino Linotype Verdana
+
+And the dingbats fonts
+
+ Wingding Webdings
+
+All these fonts are distributed with Windows XP.
+
+Each font come in various weights and/or shapes. Please read
+winfonts-doc.pdf for more informations.
+
+The TS1 encoding is partially supported. However, the euro symbol
+(\texteuro) is accessible.
+
+Requirement
+~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+This package is especially suited for Miktex v2.4 (or higher) running
+on Microsoft Windows XP. It should work with other version of Windows.
+
+It should be possible to use this package on Linux, but then you
+should obtain the corresponding truetype files and install them on
+your texmf tree. Moreover you will not be able to visualize your dvi
+using xdvi, unless you install an utility like ttf2tfm.
+
+
+Installation
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+0) First, the winfonts package could be already installed on your
+ system. Use the Miktex Package Manager to know if it is the case.
+
+1) Unzip the file winfonts.zip on your local texmf tree (for example
+ "c:\localtexmf")
+
+2) If you haven't create yet a local version of the file updmap.cfg
+ you should do that now. Consult the file
+
+ ${TEXMF}/miktex/config/updmap.cfg
+
+ and follow the instructions given.
+
+ Now add the following line at the end of your local version of
+ updmap.cfg:
+
+ Map winfonts.map
+
+3) If you haven't create yet a local version of the file ttf2pk.cfg,
+ you should do that now. Create the file
+
+ ${LOCALTEXMF}/ttf2tfm/ttf2pk.cfg
+
+ and add the line
+
+ map ttfonts.map
+
+ Append to this file the line:
+
+ map +winfonts_ttf2tfm.map
+
+4) Refresh the file name database using "Miktex Options".
+
+5) Run the utility updmap.
+
+6) Enjoy! The fonts are now available in your document with the
+ command \fontfamily followed by \selectfont. For example
+
+ \fontfamily{verdana}\selectfont
+
+ to typeset your document with Verdana.
+
+ The documentation is in the directory:
+
+ doc/latex/winfonts
+
+
+Happy TeXing !
