-Garamond Libre, version 1.2 (April 24, 2020)
+This is the README for the garamond-libre package,
+version 1.4 (May 3, 2020)
-Garamond Libre is a free and open-source old-style font family. It is a "true Garamond,"
-i.e., it is based off the designs of 16th-century French engraver Claude Garamond (also
-spelled Garamont). The Roman design is Garamond’s; the italics are from a design by
-Robert Granjon. The upright Greek font is after a design by Firmin Didot; the "italic"
-Greek font is after a design by Alexander Wilson. The font family includes support for
-Latin, Greek (monotonic and polytonic) and Cyrillic scripts, as well as small capitals,
-old-style figures, superior and inferior figures, historical ligatures, Byzantine musical
-symbols, the IPA and swash capitals. The fonts are an extended fork based on designs by
-George Douros. The fonts are provided in OpenType format, and are intended to be
-used with LuaLaTeX or XeLaTeX via fontspec.
+This package provides LaTeX, pdfLaTeX, XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX
+support for the Garamond Libre family of fonts.
