+OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
+
+If you have any further information about *free* fonts which may be
+useful to others, please use the following URL to add a font to the
+FAQ
+ http://www.vlsivie.tuwien.ac.at/mike/fonts
+
+Please try to fill out the form as accurately as you can!
+
+This document only covers fonts which are available free of charge,
+via the internet. This is NOT a free advertisement for commercial
+font founderies. (So if you are a commercial foundery, don't bother
+me about including pointers to your commercial products!)
+
+Unfortunately archives move a lot, appear or disappear. I cannot keep
+track of everything, so please let me know if you find errors. Also,
+since the material changes so often, formatting is not always up to
+snuff. (This is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, not to
+win any editing prizes...)
+
+1. Which coding should I use for accented characters?
+Use the internationally standardized ISO-8859-X character sets to type
+accented characters.
+
+8859-1 is also used by MS-Windows (Actually, MS-Windows
+uses UNICODE (ISO 10646) truncated to 8 bit, which gives an equivalent
+encoding.), VMS and (practically all) UNIX implementations. MS-DOS
+uses a different character set and is not compatible with this
+character set. (It can, however, be translated to this format with
+various tools. See section 7.)
+
+ISO 8859-1 supports the following languages:
+Afrikaans, Catalan, Danish, Dutch, English, Faeroese, Finnish, French,
+German, Galician, Irish, Icelandic, Italian, Norwegian, Portuguese,
+Spanish and Swedish.
+
+(It has been called to my attention that Albanian can be written with
+ISO 8859-1 also. However, from a standards point of view, ISO 8859-2
+is the appropriate character set for Balkan countries.)
+
+ISO 8859-1 is just one part of the ISO-8859 standard, which specifies
+several character sets, e.g.:
+8859-1 Europe, Latin America
+8859-2 Eastern Europe
+8859-3 SE Europe
+8859-4 Scandinavia (mostly covered by 8859-1 also)
+8859-5 Cyrillic
+8859-6 Arabic
+8859-7 Greek
+8859-8 Hebrew
+8859-9 Latin5, same as 8859-1 except for Turkish instead of Icelandic
+8859-10 Latin6, for Eskimo/Scandinavian languages
+
+For an overview of these fonts, see

+
+
+
+2. Font conversions
+
+Most of the font formats discussed here can be converted to the other
+formats in this FAQ. For information on how to achieve this check out
+the font FAQ posted regularly in comp.fonts and the comp.font www
+home page at http://jasper.ora.com:8080/comp.fonts.
+
+
+
+3. Availability for the X Window System
+
+An overview of the ISO 8859-X fonts is available at
+http://www.cs.tu-berlin.de/~czyborra/charsets. You can also down-load
+these fonts as bdf fonts to install on your X window system.
+
+8859-1
+X Windows has several ISO 8859-1 character sets in the standard
+distribution (those whose names end in iso8859-1). If you are using
+X11R5, note that some fonts are labeled as ISO compliant fonts which
+they are not.
+
+
+8859-2
+The X11R6 release contains a font for this cxharacter set. More fonts
+can be found at URLs
+<ftp://ftp.vszbr.cz/pub/X11-fonts/ISO_8859-2> X11
+<ftp://ftp.tarki.hu/pub/font/> various operation systems
+<ftp://almos.vein.hu/ssa/kbd_es_font/> mostly Unix/X11
+<ftp://ftp.vma.bme.hu/pub/ssa/kbd_es_font/> (mirror of almos)
+<ftp://ftp.tarki.hu/pub/ssa/kbd_es_font/> mostly Unix/X11
+
+ftp://ftp.vse.cz/pub/386-unix/linux/Czech/czech-0.12.tar.gz has X
+fonts for 8859-2 and Linux support for the Czech language.
+
+
+8859-3
+You can find fonts for 8859-3 at URL
+ftp://ftp.stack.urc.tue.nl/pub/esperanto/fonts.dir. Not all the fonts
+are Latin-3. At least "adobe3.tar.gz" and "l3-tiparoj.tar.gz" contain
+Latin-3 BDF fonts.
+
+Also, there are fonts at URL
+ftp://ftp.vszbr.cz/pub/X11-fonts/ISO_8859-3.
+
+
+8859-4 through 8859-10
+You can find fonts for these character sets at URL
+ftp://ftp.vszbr.cz/pub/X11-fonts.
+
+
+8859-5
+Check out the ftp://nic.funet.fi/pub/culture/russian/comp/fonts
+(esp. subdirectories .../fonts and .../xwin). It has a host of
+Russian fonts. Also, check out the fonts in
+ftp://cs.umd.edu/pub/cyrillic/xwin_fonts. This archive contains ISO
+8859-5, Koi8 and Alt fonts (Alt is very popular on PCs.). If you use
+emacs, russian.el allows you to use one font for the buffer and
+another for the display.
+More fonts for Cyrillic scripts can be found at
+http://www.crec.mipt.ru/russify/index.html
+
+
+8859-6
+ISO 8859-6 fonts (insofar as glyph-encoded fonts can represent an
+abstract character set) are available from ftp://leb.net/pub/reader/unix/fonts.
+
+
+8859-7
+a set of Helvetica and Courier fonts can be found at
+ftp://ftp.ntua.gr/pub/fonts/X11.
+
+Additional Unix fonts for Greek are available via
+http://www.hri.org/fonts/unix
+
+
+8859-8
+Several fonts for this character set family can be found in the
+metamail package. The `metamail' package is available via anonymous
+ftp from thumper.bellcore.com in /pub/nsb. These fonts are in bdf
+format and can be found in <metamail-root>/src/fonts. You will also
+need software which supports right-to-left writing, such as the MULE
+system for emacs. Information about MULE can be found on
+ftp.vlsivie.tuwien.ac.at in /pub/8bit/MULE.
+
+Fonts can also be found at
+http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/Jonathan_Rosenne/hebfont.htm
+
+
+8859-10
+There are a couple versions of an ISO_8859-10 font for X, the first
+version of which was based on the ECMA-144 standard and its depictions
+of the characters. The second version of this font was a revision of
+the first to improve the appearance of certain accented characters,
+and to modify the appearance of some of the Latin-6-specific characters
+to reflect their appearances from what printed material the author
+could find.
+
+ Both of these BDF font files can be found by anonymous FTP
+ftp://ccsun.tuke.sk/pub/
+
+These fonts should also end up at the X Consortium ftp server
+eventually.

+
+Languages Character set Font
+Thai TIS620 <MULE-root>/fonts/ETL.tar.gz
+Vietnamese VISCII ftp://media.mit.edu/pub/Vietnet/Viscii/Unix/X.tar.Z
+Vietnamese VISCII <MULE-root>/fonts/ETL.tar.gz

+Persian MULE-ETL <MULE-root>/fonts/ETL.tar.gz
+Persian ? ftp://tehran.stanford.edu
+IPA MULE-ETL <MULE-root>/fonts/ETL.tar.gz
+
+MULE-ETL is a MULE-specific character set, IPA stands for
+International Phonetic Alphabet. <MULE-root> refers to the root where
+you have installed MULE (MULE is a MULtilingual Enhancement to GNU
+Emacs). More information on MULE and the MULE package can be found on
+ftp://etlport.etl.go.jp/pub/mule.
+
+
+
+4. DOS
+IBM code page 819 is the same as ISO 8859-1. I believe that 850 is the
+code page that has all of the characters in different positions.
+
+IBM code page 912 is the same as ISO 8859-2, but 852 is the one that
+comes with (all versions of) DOS, which has all of ISO 8859-2's
+characters in different positions.
+
+
+Alternatively, you can reconfigure your MS-DOS PC to use publicly
+available, free ISO-8859-X code pages. Check out the anonymous ftp
+archive ftp.uni-erlangen.de, which contains data on how to do this
+(and other ISO-related stuff) in /pub/doc/ISO/charsets. The README
+file contains an index of the files you need.
+
+
+
+5. MS-Windows
+
+There are different Windows code pages, just as there are different
+DOS code pages. The one used for western European languages is 1252,
+which is a superset of ISO 8859-1 (1252 makes use of the control
+characters from 0x80 to 0x9F). Similarly, 1250 is a superset of ISO
+8859-2. (Some characters actually seem to have changed character code
+position, so it is not fully compatible!)
+
+" Unfortunately, there are significant diffrences between ISO 8859-2
+and the Windoze CP1250. While most of the characters are identical,
+there are maybe a dozen that appear in different positions in CP1250
+when viewing an iso-8859-2-encoded text, so once cannot say that it is
+truly a superset -- some translations still need to be done.
+
+ The problem will be noticed if using, say, Netscape2.x for Windows
+and viewing a page which is delivered with ISO-8859-2 MIME charset tagging,
+when one has selected a CE (CP1250) font. The present beta versions of
+Netscape2.0 do not incorporate translation, nor do they recognize any
+Central European MIME charsets other than ISO-8859-2 and an unregistered
+Mac charset."
+
+There are also versions for Arabic, Greek, Hebrew, and Turkish,
+corresponding to ISO 8859-6, -7, -8, and -9. (The encoding of
+Cyrillic may be non-ISO-8859.)
+
+Latin-3
+"ftp://ftp.stack.urc.tue.nl/pub/esperanto/fonts.dir/lat3pttf.zip"
+contains several TTF fonts in Latin-3, as well as some keyboard
+utilities for MS-Windows.
+
+Greek Fonts
+http://www.hri.org/fonts This is part of the Hellenic Resources
+Network web site and contains a host of information and free
+material(fonts, software) for use with Greek character sets.

+
+6. Printing
+
+6.1 Adobe PS fonts
+
+To print text files on Postscript printers, you first have to
+translate them to Postscript programs. A number of utility programs
+exist which can perform this job.
+
+A very popular filter to perform this job is a2ps, which support files
+in ISO 8859-1 encoding when invoked with the -8 switch. There are a
+number of variants fopund on the net which support other encodings,
+such as Cyrillic.
+
+An alternative is to use the GNU enscript (genscript) program, which
+supports multiple character sets in one binary. genscript is found
+on the GNU mirror next to you.
+
+Alas, these filters rely on your Postscript fonts containing all the
+right characters. While most any font available today supports the
+full Latin1 set, East Block users are less fortunate. Most fonts
+found in printers do not support all their special characters. Two
+solutions exist:
+
+* you can download a font which does support all the right characters
+(the IBM Courier font which is publically available (e.g., in the
+X11R6 distributio contains all the required characters)
+
+* or you can assemble your own special characters. Note that most any
+Adobe font contains all the required accents marks, so all you have to
+do is tell the printer to put the right accent mark on the right
+character....
+
+So far, so good. The principle is simple though the job does require
+considerable Postscript experience if you have to start from scratch.
+Alternatively, you can pick up all the tools you need to assemble your
+very own font from ftp://ftp.dcs.ed.ac.uk/pub/jec/programs/ogonkify.tar.gz
+which will take care of all the low-level Postscript stuff so that
+indeed all you have to say is how to put what accent mark where.
+
+6.1.1 IPA Adobe Type1
+* IPA fonts can be found on ftp://ftp.sil.org
+
+
+6.2 Printing with MULE
+To print various characters supported by Mule, we provide a
+program `m2ps' which will be installed automatically while
+installing mule (just as etags, emacsclient). `m2ps'
+converts Mule's text to PostScript by using BDF files for
+getting glyphs of characters.
+
+This utility allows printing of all character sets supported by either
+your X11 distribution or found in the MULE distribution.
+
+
+
+7. Latex
+
+For ISO 8859-1, you should use the inputenv package with the latin1
+option:
+\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}
+
+If you use pre 2e version of Latex, use isolatin.sty or isolatin1.sty
+instead. These are available from URL
+ftp://ftp.vlsivie.tuwien.ac.at/pub/8bit.
+
+The ISO 8859-2 character set (ex-East Block), is supported by
+`latin2.sty': latin2.sty is available by ftp from the host
+ftp.uni-stuttgart.de as `/pub/tex/macros/latex/contrib/latin2.sty'.
+
+
+If you need a Fraktur font, check out
+ftp://ftp.vlsivie.tuwien.ac.at/pub/tex/fraktur which contains a TeX/MF
+fraktur font.
+
+Vietnamese VISCII
+At ftp://media.mit.edu/pub/Vietnet/Viscii/Unix/...
+(Also contains groff fonts in .../groff_font.tar.Z)
+
+
+
+8. ISO 10646
+Everson Mono is a simple, elegant, monowidth font. I designed it
+primarily to make glyphs available in support of _all_ the non-Han
+characters in the Basic Multilingual Plane of ISO/IEC 10646-1
+(BMP = Unicode, if you prefer), though I hope that users may find
+it a pleasant alternative to Courier and Monaco for general
+purposes, e-mail, and so forth. I have found it quite legible at
+sizes as small as 4 points. It is lighter and a bit looser than
+Courier.
+
+At the present time, these glyphs are available in 8-bit font
+modules. However, I have configured the font editor I use (Altsys'
+excellent Fontographer) to output TrueType fonts with correct
+16-bit hex addresses, and the PostScript fonts with name unique,
+unambiguous aliases to 10646. The first half of each fonts is
+ASCII (Table 1, Basic Latin); I have had to resort to this
+(arguably wasteful) method of encoding because many applications
+display a font in its own face, rather than simply by name,
+potentially rendering the font name illegible. As 16-bit
+compatible technology becomes more available, I will be reencoding
+these glyphs to more convenient formats. (On the other hand, you
+could consider all these to be micro-subsets of 10646, and since
+subsets have to include Table 1, they're all conformant....)
+
+Everson Mono is also available in all Macintosh character set
+formats, suitable for use with Apple's WorldScript technology.
+
+Everson Mono is available as PostScript and TrueType fonts in
+Macintosh and PC formats, and as PostScript fonts in NeXT and Sun
+formats. Hand-tooled bitmaps for alphabetic characters are
+available in 9-, 10-, and 12-point sizes; hand-tooled 12-point
+bitmaps only may be available for some of the symbol characters.
+
+Everson Mono fonts are available by anonymous ftp at:
+
+dkuug.dk /CEN/TC304/EversonMono10646
+midir.ucd.ie /mgunn/everson/EversonMono10646
+ftp.nada.kth.se /pub/i18n/ucs/EversonMono10646
+
+The most current version will always be on the Danish server.
+
+As of this announcement (1995-06-05) only the Macintosh (TT/PS),
+NeXT (PS), and Sun (PS) formats are available. The PC (TT/PS)
+fonts are not yet available because I am still trying to figure
+out just how the draconian xxxxxxxx.yyy naming conventions are
+supposed to work for all these outline and bitmap files. I will
+upload them as soon as I can. After that then each set of new
+Everson Mono fonts will be uploaded in all four formats.
