\maketitle
\emph{AlgolRevived} is a revival of the (photo)font \emph{Algol} by Adrian Frutiger whose sole use was for printing ALGOL code in a manual. It is not meant to be a general purpose text font---the spacing is not optimized for that, being designed instead for printing computer code, where each letter should be distinct and text ligatures are banished. It seems to work well with the {\tt listings} package, designed for exactly that purpose. Unusually for such a font, it is not monospaced, though perhaps this is no longer the issue it was in the days of FORTRAN.
Nonetheless, if you don't object to a typewritten appearance, I think the font doesn't really look as bad as you might think it should. (This document uses it as its main text font.)
Both opentype and type1 fonts are provided, along with LaTeX support files. Most characters in the T1 encoding are provided, except for f-ligatures and the Sami characters Eng, eng.
\textbf{Use with fontspec}
The package provides algolrevived.fontspec, with contents:
\begin{verbatim}
\defaultfontfeatures[algolrevived]
{
Extension = .otf,
UprightFont = AlgolRevived ,
BoldFont = AlgolRevived-Medium ,
BoldItalicFont = AlgolRevived-MediumSlanted ,
ItalicFont = AlgolRevived-Slanted ,
}
\end{verbatim}
which allows you to set up your preamble using simply
\begin{verbatim}
...
\usepackage{fontspec}
\setmainfont{algolrevived} % for use as main font
%\setmonofont{algolrevived} % for use as typewriter font only
...
\end{verbatim}
\newpage
\textbf{Use with LaTeX}
The package offers OT1, LY1, T1 and TS1 encodings, and sets T1 as the default. To change to LY1, you will need something like
\begin{verbatim}
\usepackage{algolrevived}
%\usepackage[tt]{algolrevived} for just typewriter
\usepackage[LY1]{fontenc}
\end{verbatim}
AlgolRevived-tlf-t1.tfm:
\fonttable{AlgolRevived-tlf-t1}
The package has a few options and macros. The option \texttt{scaled=.95} or \texttt{scale=.95} renders at 95\% of the default size, and option \texttt{medium} makes medium weight LaTeX's regular weight. Option \texttt{tt} species typewriter. The macros \verb|{\sufigures 9}| (same effect as \verb|\textsu{9}|) render the figure as a superscript, \textsu{9}, and similarly with \verb|\infigures|, \verb|\textin| for inferior figures.
The sty file requires textcomp so there is no need to load it separately. Textcomp adds the following glyphs. (The mathematical symbols in the otherwise vacant slots in positions 192 and up were mostly borrowed from the STIX math fonts, which use the same SIL OFL as this package. The names below were in those cases are the same as the STIX names, prefixed by "text".)
