+This is the README for the arimo package, version
+2017-01-05.
+
+This package provides LaTeX, pdfLaTeX, XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX
+support for the Arimo family of fonts, designed by Steve
+Matteson. Arimo is an innovative, refreshing sans serif design
+that is metrically compatible with Arial. Arimo
+offers improved on-screen readability characteristics and
+the pan-European WGL character set and solves the needs of
+developers looking for width-compatible fonts to address
+document portability across platforms.
+
+To install this package on a TDS-compliant TeX system
+download the file "tex-archive"/install/fonts/arimo.tds.zip
+where the preferred URL for "tex-archive" is
+http://mirrors.ctan.org. Unzip the archive at the root
+of an appropriate texmf tree, likely a personal or local
+tree. If necessary, update the file-name database (e.g.,
+texhash). Update the font-map files by enabling the Map file
+arimo.map.
+
+To use, add
+
+\usepackage{arimo}
+
+to the preamble of your document. These will activate Arimo
+as the sans serif text font. Use the sfdefault option
+to make sans-serif fonts the default.
+
+LuaLaTeX and xeLaTeX users who might prefer type1 fonts or
+who wish to avoid fontspec may use the type1 option.
+
+Options scaled=<number> or scale=<number> may be used to
+scale the fonts.
+
+Font encodings supported are OT1, T1, LY1 and TS1.
+
+TrueType fonts were obtained from
+
+https://fonts.google.com

+text may be found in the doc directory. The support files
+were created using autoinst and are licensed under the terms
+of the LaTeX Project Public License. The maintainer of this
+package is Bob Tennent (rdt at cs.queensu.ca)
