This is the README for the gelasio package, version 2023-04-08.

This package provides LaTeX, pdfLaTeX, XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX
support for the Gelasio family of fonts designed by Eben
Sorkin to be metric-compatible with Georgia in its Regular
and Bold weights. Medium and SemiBold weights have been
added.

To install this package on a TDS-compliant TeX system download the
file "tex-archive"/install/fonts/gelasio.tds.zip, where the
preferred URL for "tex-archive" is http://mirror.ctan.org. Unzip
the archive at the root of an appropriate texmf tree, likely a
personal or local tree. If necessary, update the file-name database
(e.g., texhash). Update the font-map files by enabling the Map file
gelasio.map.

To use, add

\usepackage{gelasio}

to the preamble of your document. This will activate Gelasio as the
main (serifed) text font.

Options medium and semibold chose these weights instead of the
regular or bold weights, respectively.

Options lining and tabular select those number styles rather
than oldstyle and proportional, respectively.

LuaLaTeX and xeLaTeX users who might prefer type1 fonts or who wish
to avoid fontspec may use the type1 option.

Font encodings supported are OT1, T1, LY1 and TS1.

The original fonts are available at
https://github.com/SorkinType/Gelasio and are licensed under the
SIL Open Font License, (version 1.1); the text may be found
in the doc directory. The type1 versions were created using
cfftot1. The support files were created using autoinst and
are licensed under the terms of the LaTeX Project Public
License. The maintainer of this package is Bob Tennent
