============================================================
          Adobe Myriad font pack as of 2004-01-07
============================================================
                                              Walter Schmidt
                                       w.a.schmidt(@)gmx.net

This collection includes tfm, vf, fd and map files to use
the Adobe Myriad, Myriad Headline and Myriad Condensed
families of Type1 fonts with LaTeX on the Un*x or PC
platform.  It can be used even if you have only one of these
font families.

The collection does not inlclude the fonts themselves; they
need to be purchased from Adobe or Linotype.  The four 
Myriad fonts (Roman, Italic, Bold, BoldItalic) are also
distributed in conjunction with the Adobe Type Manager,

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.



What's new?
-----------
2004-01-07
  Faked Euro symbols are now available in all fonts.
  
2003-11-26
  Myriad-Headline is supported as series "b", while
  the series "bx" is assigned to Myriad-Bold.



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

Adobe/Linotype  TeX           FontName
-------------------------------------------------
wmr_____.pfb    pmyr8a.pfb    Myriad-Roman
wmi_____.pfb    pmyri8a.pfb   Myriad-Italic
wmb_____.pfb    pmyb8a.pfb    Myriad-Bold
wmbi____.pfb    pmybi8a.pfb   Myriad-BoldItalic

wmhd____.pfb    pmyrd8a.pfb   Myriad-Headline

wmc_____.pfb    pmyr8ac.pfb   Myriad-Condensed
wmci____.pfb    pmyri8ac.pfb  Myriad-CnItalic
wmcs____.pfb    pmys8ac.pfb   Myriad-CnSemibold
wmcsi___.pfb    pmysi8ac.pfb  Myriad-CnSemiboldItalic
wmcb____.pfb    pmyb8ac.pfb   Myriad-CnBold
wmcbi___.pfb    pmybi8ac.pfb  Myriad-CnBoldItalic
 
Copy them to the directory

  texmf/fonts/type1/adobe/myriad/

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



Installing the support files 
----------------------------
Unpack the ZIP archive pmy.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 Adobe Myriad 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 Myriad is
"pmy.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
"pmy.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 pmy.map


Configuring VTeX/Free
---------------------
Make VTeX read the additional font map ("aliasing") file
pmy.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

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

  TYPE1 {
    ...
    pmy.ali
    }



Using the Myriad fonts with LaTeX
---------------------------------
See the file myriad.txt directory texmf/doc/fonts/adobe of
your TeX system



Legal notice
------------
The Myriad font pack is made up from the files pmy.txt and
pmy.zip.
