According +to the designer, the fonts were inspired by Gill Sans. + +To install this package on a TDS-compliant TeX system unzip the +file tex-archive/install/fonts/gillius.tds.zip 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 gillius.map. + +To use, add + +\usepackage{gillius} + +or + +\usepackage{gillius2} + +to the preamble of your document. These make Gillius (or +Gillius No. 2) the default sans family. To also set them as the main +text font, use the option sfdefault. + +LuaLaTeX and xeLaTeX users who might prefer type1 fonts or who wish +to avoid fontspec may use the type1 option. + +The condensed option loads the condensed variants. + +Options scaled=<number> or scale=<number> may be used to adjust +fontsizes to match a serifed font. + +The only figure style supported is proportional-lining. Font +encodings supported are OT1, T1, LY1 and TS1. + +Commands \gillius, \gilliustwo, \gilliuscondensed and +\gilliustwocondensed select the specified font family. + +The original fonts (version 1.009) were downloaded from +http://arkandis.tuxfamily.org/adffonts.html and are licensed under +the GPL License, (version 2 or later), with font exception; the text +may be found in the doc directory. The type1 versions were created +using cfftot1. 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) |
