===========================================================
            Linotype Minion font pack for LaTeX
============================================================
                                                  2004-04-13
                                               WalterSchmidt
                                      w.a.schmidt(at)gmx.net
                                               

This bundle includes all files required to use Linotype's
Minion 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.  See below for the
list of all fonts used.

Math typesetting is supported in two flavors:

   First, you may use the free Euler typefaces, wich are
   available with any decent TeX system.

   Alternatively, use the commercial MathTime and MathTime
   Plus fonts from Y&Y <http://www.yandy.com/mathtime.htm>.
   Additional support files to mix Minion with MathTime are
   provided in the present collection.

Notice that the present support files were created from the
version of the Minion fonts, that was provided on version
1.6 of the CD-ROM "Linotype Gold Edition" as of July 2002.
They cannot be used with earlier versions of the fonts.

The below installation instructions assume a TDS-compliant
TeX system, such as teTeX, MikTeX or VTeX/Free.  Yet they
may not exactly fit your particular TeX system; please,
consult its documentation, too!  The directory name "texmf"
refers to the root directory of a TDS directory tree.  In
case your TeX systems has more than one directory tree, its
documentation should tell you where to install new files.

|  On VTeX, you should not install both Linotype's and
|  Adobe's Minion fonts simultaneously.  Rationale:  Part of
|  the fonts in both collections are identical, and
|  installing distinct font files with the same internal
|  FontNames is likely to confuse the PostScript interpreter
|  (GeX)



Change log
----------
2004-04-13
  mathlmnt.sty, version 2.1: Math alphabet \mathbold removed;
  please, use \bm (from package bm.sty) instead.
  
2004-03-14
  Changed location of font map file lmn.ali in the
  distribution; it is now distributed both in dvips/config
  and in fonts/map/dvips, so as to comply with the future 
  teTeX.
  Package mathlmnt.sty, new version 2.0a; Bug fix regarding
  the definitions of the upright Greek characters.

2003-12-01
  Virtual fonts for italic smallcaps (font shape "scit")
  added; they may be useful in conjunction with H.Harders'
  macro package slantsc.sty.  
  Minor bug fix in the kerning table of the regular
  smallcaps.

2003-10-28
  Virtual mathlmnt fonts fixed:  With previous versions,
  the letters v and w in math mode were taken from Times
  rather than Minion.

2003-10-17
  The package mathlmnt.sty provides a bold-cursive math
  alphabet now.  The virtual fonts are unchanged.

2003-08-19
  Fixed kerning of Lsmall-Ysmall in the smallcaps.
  VFs and metrics now made using latest fontinst 1.926.
  
2003-07-22
  A full upright Greek alphabet is now available with 
  mathlmnt.sty and the related virtual math fonts.
  The text fonts are unchanged

2003-07-08
  Improved kerning data for german umlauts (once again ;-)
  All kerning pairs < 5 units removed.
 


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

PostScript                 Linotype        TeX         
FontName                   file name       file name   
                           
MinionLT-Regular           lte50894.pfb    lmnr8a.pfb
MinionLT-Italic            lte50895.pfb    lmnri8a.pfb
MinionLT-Bold              lte50897.pfb    lmnb8a.pfb
MinionLT-BoldItalic        lte50898.pfb    lmnbi8a.pfb
MinionLT-DisplayItalic     lte50899.pfb    lmnrid8a.pfb
MinionLT-DisplayRegular    lte50900.pfb    lmnrd8a.pfb
MinionLT-Semibold          lte50901.pfb    lmns8a.pfb
MinionLT-SemiboldItalic    lte50902.pfb    lmnsi8a.pfb
MinionExp-BoldItalic       mjbi____.pfb    lmnbi8x.pfb
MinionExp-Bold             mjb_____.pfb    lmnb8x.pfb
MinionExp-DisplayItalic    mjdsi___.pfb    lmnrid8x.pfb
MinionExp-DisplayRegular   mjds____.pfb    lmnrd8x.pfb
MinionExp-Italic           mji_____.pfb    lmnri8x.pfb
MinionExp-Regular          mjrg____.pfb    lmnr8x.pfb
MinionExp-SemiboldItalic   mjsbi___.pfb    lmnsi8x.pfb
MinionExp-Semibold         mjsb____.pfb    lmns8x.pfb
Minion-Ornaments           moor____.pfb    lmnrp.pfb

Copy them to the directory

  texmf/fonts/type1/linotype/minion

of your TeX system.  Rename the .afm files accordingly 
and copy them to:

  texmf/fonts/afm/linotype/minion

Most likely, you will have to create these directories
first.



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



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



Configuring your TeX system
---------------------------
|
| You need not repeat this step, when updating from a
| previous release of this collection!
|

The present distribution comprises several font map files
for the Linotype Minion 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 Minion is
"lmn.map".  Two copies of this file reside in the
directories texmf/dvips/config and texmf/fonts/map/dvips.

Configuring teTeX
-----------------
Additional font map files (here lmn.map) are installed using
the shell script "updmap".  With teTeX-2.0 and later (or
teTeX-beta as of June 2002 and later) execute the following
commands:

  texhash
  updmap --enable Map lmn.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
lmn.ali.  This is usually accomplished by putting an
appropriate record ito each of the configuration files

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

The name "lmn.ali" is to be added to the TYPE1 section of
the above-mentioned files:

TYPE1 {
  ...
  lmn.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 Linotype Minion fonts with LaTeX
------------------------------------------
See the files minion.txt and mathlmnt.pdf, which reside in
the directory texmf/doc/fonts/linotype.



Legal notice
------------
The bundle "Linotype Minion for LaTeX "is made up from
the files lmn.txt and lmn.zip.
