The fonts supported are: + + Arial Franklin Gothic Tahoma + Comic Sans Georgia Times + Courier New Palatino Linotype Verdana + +And the dingbats fonts + + Wingding Webdings + +All these fonts are distributed with Windows XP. + +Each font come in various weights and/or shapes. Please read +winfonts-doc.pdf for more informations. + +The TS1 encoding is partially supported. However, the euro symbol +(\texteuro) is accessible. + +Requirement +~~~~~~~~~~~ + +This package is especially suited for Miktex v2.4 (or higher) running +on Microsoft Windows XP. It should work with other version of Windows. + +It should be possible to use this package on Linux, but then you +should obtain the corresponding truetype files and install them on +your texmf tree. Moreover you will not be able to visualize your dvi +using xdvi, unless you install an utility like ttf2tfm. + + +Installation +~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +0) First, the winfonts package could be already installed on your + system. Use the Miktex Package Manager to know if it is the case. + +1) Unzip the file winfonts.zip on your local texmf tree (for example + "c:\localtexmf") + +2) If you haven't create yet a local version of the file updmap.cfg + you should do that now. Consult the file + + ${TEXMF}/miktex/config/updmap.cfg + + and follow the instructions given. + + Now add the following line at the end of your local version of + updmap.cfg: + + Map winfonts.map + +3) If you haven't create yet a local version of the file ttf2pk.cfg, + you should do that now. Create the file + + ${LOCALTEXMF}/ttf2tfm/ttf2pk.cfg + + and add the line + + map ttfonts.map + + Append to this file the line: + + map +winfonts_ttf2tfm.map + +4) Refresh the file name database using "Miktex Options". + +5) Run the utility updmap. + +6) Enjoy! The fonts are now available in your document with the + command \fontfamily followed by \selectfont. For example + + \fontfamily{verdana}\selectfont + + to typeset your document with Verdana. + + The documentation is in the directory: + + doc/latex/winfonts + + +Happy TeXing ! + +Paul Pichaureau, Paris, January 2006 + -- cgit v1.2.3
