+ We are finished! After a lot of trouble
+
+ UMRAND.STY
+
+ and the fonts
+
+ UMRANDA.MF + UMRANDB.MF
+
+ version 1.2
+
+are ready for use! This is the first officially distributed version.
+With UMRAND.STY you can typeset fancy frames in TeX. This can by done
+with \fbox too? Well no one of this type:
+
+ *+++*+++*+++*+++*+++*+++*+++*
+ + +
+ + TeX & METAFONT +
+ * for *
+ + President! +
+ + +
+ *+++*+++*+++*+++*+++*+++*+++*
+
+Instead of + and * there are line elements, meander, fishes, snakes,
+flowers, curls and many others in our fonts. The framesize is
+automatically computed in respect of the frame's contents. Many
+combinations of frame elements are possible.
+
+One restriction we had to made: The fonts only work on devices with
+equal x- and y-resolution. With 180x360dpi you will run into
+problems. A little comfort: You should try. You may be able to use
+some of the chars in our fonts. We don't know, whether that will
+change in the future.
+
+PS: Here you see, what we are doing at our ``table reserved for
+ regular guests'' (Langenscheid dictionary, "`Stammtisch"' in
+ German) in Wuppertal, Germany.
+
+We, that are in this case:

+above.
