+A POSTSCRIPT FONT ``ANTYKWA TORU\'NSKA'' FOR LaTeX2e
+
+This is a collection of virtual fonts generated with fontinst 1.6,
+based on a Postscript font `Antykwa Toru\'nska' available form CTAN at
+
+CTAN/fonts/psfonts/polish/antyktor/
+
+The original font comes in an encoding which is close to QX encoding
+(local Polish encoding designed especially to be used with Windows),
+some glyphs are however missing. The users of LaTeX2e would rather
+prefer it in standard OT1 and T1 (and maybe also TS1 and OT4) encodings.
+This is the purpose of this bundle.
+
+INSTALLATION
+
+First you need to install the original font, in particular you should
+download the following files from CTAN/fonts/psfonts/polish/antyktor/:
+
+anttb.pfb anttr.pfb anttri.pfb
+anttb.tfm anttr.tfm anttri.tfm
+antt.enc
+
+Other files are obsolete. If your TeX conforms the TDS, I suggest to put
+the files listed above in the following directories:
+
+$TEXMF/fonts/type1/public/antyktor/*.pfb
+$TEXMF/fonts/tfm/public/antyktor/*.tfm
+$TEXMF/dvips/base/antt.enc
+
+Now install the files included in this bundle:
+
+1) move all the tfm files from ./tfm/ to $TEXMF/fonts/tfm/public/antyktor/
+2) move all the vf files from ./vf/ to $TEXMF/fonts/vf/public/antyktor/
+3) move all the *.fd files and antyktor.sty from ./latex2e/
+ to $TEXMF/tex/latex/antyktor/
+4) add the contents of ./fontname/special.map to $TEXMF/fontname/special.map
+5) add the contents of dvips/psfonts.map to $TEX/dvips/misc/psfonts.map
+6) texhash
+
+USAGE
+
+Adding the following line:
+
+\usepackage{antyktor}
+
+in the preamble of your document replaces the default roman family with
+Antykwa Toru\'nska in the whole document.
+
+Alternatively you may use a declaration:
+
+\fontfamily{antt}\selectfont
+
+to switch to Antykwa Toru\'nska in the middle of your document.
+
+FILE NAMES
+
+The following naming conventions have been used for files generated with
+fontinst: the typeface is nonstandard, so I arbitrarily used the
+two-letter abbreviation `at' (= Antykwa Toru\'nska = Antiqua of Toru\'n;
+Toru\'n is a Polish town). To indicate that `at' is nonstandard and does
+not mean `American Typewriter', the first letter (foundry) is `z'.
+Finally the first three letters of all files are 'zat'. Now comes the
+series/shape abbreviation:
+
+abbr. name NFSS name
+b bold b/n
+bc bold, caps and small caps b/sc
+bo bold slanted (oblique) b/sl
+r medium upright (regular) m/n
+rc medium upright (regular), caps and small caps m/sc
+rci medium italics, caps and small caps m/sci (nonstandard!)
+ri medium italics (regular italics) m/it
+ro medium slanted (regular oblique) m/sl
+
+The last two letters stand for the encoding:
+
+7t TeX text encoding (OT1)
+8t Cork encoding (T1)
+8p TeX text encoding with Polish national characters (OT4)
+8u the QX encoding (it plays a role of the `raw' font), accessed
+ from LaTeX2e as the U encoding
+
+If you don't intend to use local Polish OT4 encoding, you may remove
+all the files *8p.tfm *8p.vf and ot4antt.fd.
+
+COMMENTS, PROBLEMS
+
+Although some characters have been borrowed from standard Postscript
+fonts (Adobe Symbol, Adobe Palatino), few glyphs are missing in OT1, T1
+and OT4 encodings.
+
+The Antykwa Toru\'nska has an `fk' ligature, not present in the standard
+encodings. It has been put in arbitrarily chosen unused positions
+(instead of missing `zeroperthousand' glyph in T1, and at "BC in OT1 and
+OT4 encodings).
+
+The slanted (oblique) shape is generated from the upright one by
+slanting the letters by a factor of 0.167. The slanted shape is very
+close to the italics one, although some small letters are distinctly
+different. However it probably doesn't make much sense to use them both
+in the same document.
+
+Few accents over letters in T1 encoding are not correctly placed.
+
+The TS1 encoding (to be used with textcomp package) contains only few glyphs.
+
+Please send all comments concerning *only* the virtual fonts to ToMasz
+Wierzbicki <tomasz@tcs.uni.wroc.pl>. Comments about the font `Antykwa
+Toru\'nska' itself should be sent to Janusz Marian Nowacki
+<jnowacki@to.onet.pl>.
