+ How to report errors and bugs with the ec fonts
+
+To improve the quality of the ec fonts and to make them free of any errors
+and bugs, your feedback is appreciated.
+
+Please make sure, that your report is concise, clear and reproduceable, also
+make sure, that you are using the newest version of the ec fonts and that
+your bug isn't fixed yet.
+
+The following information is needed:
+
+Which font produced the bug?
+
+Which mode do you use?
+
+What is the error message issued by METAFONT?
+
+Which character carries the error? Is the error visible in the output and
+how can it be described? Always try to generate output and look at it
+first, some errors may be invisible at all.
+
+Please include the .log file in your report.
+
+The fonts should work at resolutions from 200dpi upwards, and in a size
+range from 5pt to 100pt. If your effective resolution lies below 200dpi
+-- for non square pixels the lower resolution counts -- (screen modes
+or fonts at reduced sizes), if the parameter blacker of your mode is
+negative, or if you generate a font outside the given size range, problems
+are to be expected and do not qualify as bugs.
+
+The funny fonts needn't work at all, they surely don't work at low sizes.
+The typewriter fonts don't work below 8pt.
+
+The fractions and the superscript digits from the tc fonts don't work at
+small sizes (below 10 pt) even for fair resolutions (about 300dpi).
+
+If you have a fix for your your problem, it is very appreaciated.
+
+Please report errors to
