============================================================
              Adobe Optima font pack for LaTeX
============================================================
                                                  2004-08-08
                                              Walter Schmidt
                                      w.a.schmidt(at)gmx.net


This bundle includes all required files for using the 
following Adobe Optima Type1 fonts with LaTeX:

  Optima
  Optima-Medium
  Optima-Bold

This bundle does _not_ include the Type1 fonts; they are to
be purchased from Adobe.

The below installation instructions assume a TDS-compliant
TeX system, such as teTeX, 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.



Bugs and problems
-----------------
The font metrics supplied by Adobe are lacking proper
kerning data for accented letters, umlauts and typical
character pairs that occur in other languages than English.



Change Log
----------
2004-08-08
   Fixed a potential bug in the macro package
   
2004-07-26
   New macro package optima.sty, which supports 
   scaling and use of the "popm" family as options

2002-12-04
  LaTeX font family popm added.  Directory layout changed.
  
2001-05-25
  Metrics for Optima-Black added.  True italics are no
  longer used, because they may not always be available.
 


Removing absolete files
-----------------------
In case you have installed any previous version of this
bundle, please delete the following file manually, before  
installing the current one:

  texmf/vtex/config/pop.ali

In case you have installed a previous version (< Dec. 2002)
of this bundle, please delete the directories

  texmf/tex/latex/adobe/optima
  texmf/fonts/tfm/adobe/optima
  texmf/fonts/vf/adobe/optima
  
incl. all their contents, and the files

  texmf/doc/latex/adobe/optima.txt
  texmf/pdftex/config/pop.cfg
  
before installing the present release.
  


Installing the Type1 font files
-------------------------------
The Type1 font files are to be named properly for use with
TeX.  The names of the original files may vary, so the
following table tells the related PostScript font names,
too:

  PostScript FontName    Adobe          TeX
  -------------------------------------------------
  Optima                 op______.pfb   popr8a.pfb
  Optima-Medium          opm_____.pfb   popm8a.pfb
  Optima-Bold            opb_____.pfb   popb8a.pfb

The .pfb files are to be copied to the directory

  texmf/fonts/type1/adobe/pop

of your TeX system.  (You may need to create this directory
first.)  The related .afm files should also be renamed
accordingly and installed into the directory

  texmf/fonts/afm/adobe/pop



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



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 Adobe Optima 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 Optima is
"pop.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 pop.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 pop.map

With earlier versions of teTeX, consult its documentation
how to install an additional map file.

Configuring VTeX/Free (8.44 or later)
-------------------------------------
Make VTeX read the additional font map ("aliasing") file
pop.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 "pop.ali" is to be added to the TYPE1 section of
the above-mentioned files:

TYPE1 {
  ...
  pop.ali
  }



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



Using the Optima fonts with LaTeX
------------------------------------------
See the file optima.txt, which should have been copied to
the directory texmf/doc/fonts/adobe.



Legal notice
------------
The bundle "Adobe Optima for LaTeX "is made up from
the files pop.txt and pop.zip.
