############         A BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PACKAGE        ############
###########################################################################

The current package contains the most recent version of the TeX Gyre
Chorus font in the PostScript Type 1 and OpenType formats. TeX Gyre
Chorus is based on the URW Chancery L Medium Italic kindly released
by URW++ Design and Development Inc. under GFL (independently of the
GPL release accompanying Ghostscript). The Vietnamese glyphs were
added by Han The Thanh.

TeX Gyre Chorus can be used as a replacement for the acknowledged
font ITC Zapf Chancery(R) (designed by Hermann Zapf, 1979).

Note that the widths of almost all characters covered by Adobe Standard
Encoding of the TeX Gyre Chorus glyphs are consistent with the relevant
Adobe metric data:
  ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/type/win/all/afmfiles/base35/zcmi____.afm
Exceptions are: `grave' (Adobe: 220; TeX Gyre: 300, i.e., consistently
with `acute') and `questiondown' (Adobe: 400; TeX Gyre: 380, i.e.,
consistently with `question'). Note also that all URW Chancery L Medium
Italic widths differ by factor 5/6 from the respective Adobe metrics.

                           *   *   *

The TeX Gyre project, following the Latin Modern project, aims at providing
a rich collection of diacritical characters in the attempt to cover as many
Latin-based scripts as possible. To our knowledge, the repertoire of
characters covers all European languages as well as some other Latin-based
alphabets such as Vietnamese and Navajo; at the request of users, recent
extensions (following the enhancement of the Latin Modern collection)
provide glyphs sufficient for typesetting of romanized transliterations
of Arabic and Sanskrit scripts. We have frequently used the information
presented by Michael Everson at the ``The Alphabets of Europe''
( http://www.evertype.com/alphabets/ ) web site. If you know about European
languages that are not covered completely or if some glyphs have apparently
wrong shapes -- please let us know. Note, however, that Greek glyphs
bear provisional character.

The TeX Gyre Project was launched and is supported by TeX USERS GROUPS
(CS TUG, DANTE eV, GUST, NTG, TUG India, TUG). Hearty thanks to the
representatives of these groups and also to all people who helped with
comments, ideas, remarks, bug reports, objections, hints, consolations, etc.

                           *   *   *

The TeX Gyre Chorus family consists of a single medium
italic font (qzcmi).

The TeX Gyre Chorus font can be freely used and distributed
under the GUST Font License (see above) which is actually
an instance of the LaTeX Project Public License
(LPPL; see http://www.latex-project.org/lppl.txt ).

                           *   *   *

The package consists of the files in the directories conforming
to the TeX Directory Structure (v. 1.1). The directories contain:

doc/fonts/tex-gyre             this file, manifest, licence, test files,
                               and, moreover, selected files used as input
                               for generating OTFs (meant as a technical
                               documentation of the OTFs)
tex/latex/tex-gyre             support for LaTeX (*.fd and *.sty files,
                               prepared by Marcin Woli\'nski)
fonts/enc/dvips/tex-gyre       support for dvips (*.enc files);
                               NOTE: all fonts of the TeX Gyre family
                                 share the same *.enc files with
                                 a few exceptions: CS, QX, and RM encodings
                                 for TeX Gyre Cursor (monospace) differ
                                 from the standard ones (because of the
                                 compatibility with Computer Modern
                                 typewriter fonts requested by users),
                                 and, moreover, CS, L7x, QX and RM encodings
                                 for TeX Gyre Chorus exploit exceptionally

The Tex Gyre Chorus font contains 806 characters. Unlike for other fonts
from the TeX Gyre collection, Greek letters are missing and so do small
caps (using capital forms of chancery characters for typesetting whole
words should be forbidden by law). Here is the complete list of names
used in the Type 1 font:
