============================================================
         Linotype Melior font pack as of 2004-01-29
============================================================
                                              Walter Schmidt
                                      w.a.schmidt(at)gmx.net

This collection includes tfm, vf, fd and map files to use
Linotypes "Melior" PostScript fonts with LaTeX on the
Un*x or PC platform.  It does _not_ include the actual Type1
fonts, which are to be purchased from Linotype.  

The below installation instructions assume a TDS-compliant
TeX system, such as teTeX, fpTeX, MikTeX or VTeX/Free.  The
directory name "texmf" refers to the root directory of the
TDS directory tree.  In case your TeX systems has more than
one such directory tree, the documentation should tell you
where to install new files.



Installing the Melior Type1 fonts
---------------------------------
The Type1 fonts, as supplied by Linotype, are to be renamed
for use with TeX:

FontName:              Linotype:        TeX:          
MeliorLT               lte50062.pfb  -> lmlr8a.pfb    
MeliorLT-Italic        lte50063.pfb  -> lmlri8a.pfb   
MeliorLT-Bold          lte50064.pfb  -> lmlb8a.pfb    
MeliorLT-BoldItalic    lte50065.pfb  -> lmlbi8a.pfb   
 
Copy them to the directory

  texmf/fonts/type1/linotype/melior/

of your TeX system.  Rename the .afm files accordingly and 
put them into texmf/fonts/afm/linotype/melior/.



Installing the support files 
----------------------------
Unpack the ZIP archive lml.zip in the directory "texmf" 
of your TeX system; thus, all files will be copied to the
appropriate directories.



Updating the filename database
------------------------------
Certain TeX systems require manually updating of a "filename
database" after adding of new files.  Please, consult the
documentation of your TeX system!



Configuring your TeX system
---------------------------
The present distribution comprises several font map files
for the <Supplier> <Family> fonts.  You need to configure
your TeX system so that these files are actually used.  
The required steps depend on the particular TeX system.
Particular sets of instructions are provided below for the
following systems:

  * teTeX
  * VTeX/Free

With other TeX systems such as MikTeX, consult the related
documentation how to install an additional font map file.
The name of the map file to be used for Melior is
"lml.map".  Two copies of this file reside in the
directories texmf/dvips/config and texmf/fonts/map/dvips.

Configuring teTeX:
Use the shell script "updmap" to add the font map file named
"lml.map" to the configuration.  See the documentation of
your particular teTeX version how to use the script.  With
teTeX 2.0 and above, execute the following commands:

  texhash
  updmap --enable Map lml.map

With earlier versions of teTeX, consult its documentation
about how to add new map files to the system.

Configuring VTeX/Free:
Make VTeX read the additional font map ("aliasing") file
lml.ali.  This is usually accomplished by putting a record
for this file into each of the configuration files

  texmf/vtex/config/pdf.fm
and
  texmf/vtex/config/ps.fm

"lml.ali" is to be added to the TYPE1 section of the
above-mentioned files:
  
  TYPE1 {
    ...
    lml.ali
    }

In case you are still using VTeX/Free 7.x (as opposed to 
v8.x), copy the .ali file from texmf/fonts/map/vtex to the
directory texmf/vtex/config.



Using the Melior fonts with LaTeX
---------------------------------
See the file melior.txt, which should now reside in the
directory texmf/doc/fonts/linotype/.



Legal notice
------------
The Linotype Melior font pack is made up from the files
lml.txt and lml.zip.
