\begin{document}
\maketitle
-Cochineal is a fork of Crimson, a remarkable creation of Sebastian Kosch inspired by oldstyle font designers. The name Cochineal is intended to suggest that, while it is crimson, there may be bugs involved. More than 1500 glyphs were added to Crimson, allowing a more than a modest chance that some poor spacing or kerning or accent placement might have been introduced. Such problems will occur in the less frequented parts of the fonts, and I would appreciate reports of problems you may discover. You are unlikely to trip over issues if you stay within the bounds of, say, the T$1$ encoding. I did correct problems in a number of glyphs from Crimson that FontForge uncovered and that could have led to poor rendition on some platforms, especially OS X. I also changed the emsize to {\tt 1000} (the standard for PostScript-flavored Opentype) from the Crimson value of {\tt 1024} and rescaled accordingly.

-Cochineal provides {\tt Roman}, {\tt Bold}, {\tt Italic} and {\tt BoldItalic}. (Crimson provided semibold weights but with only limited coverage, which I did not wish to extend as this would have required the creation of about 2000 additional glyphs. Bob Tennent's {\tt Crimson} package does support semibold and the other styles, though without my additions.)

\textsc{Package Features:}\\
In addition to the encodings {\tt OT1}, {\tt T1}, {\tt TS1}, {\tt LY1} in general use by Western European (and some Eastern European) scripts, the package also offers {\tt LGR} with full support for monotonic, polytonic and some ancient Greek, and {\tt T2A} and {\tt OT2} Cyrillic support. All allow a choice from four figure styles---{\tt TLF} (tabular lining figures, monospaced and uppercase), {\tt LF} (proportional lining figures, uppercase), {\tt TOsF} (tabular oldstyle figures, monospaced and lowercase) and {\tt OsF} (proportional oldstyle figures, lowercase). The encodings {\tt OT1}, {\tt T1}, {\tt TS1}, {\tt LY1} offer \textsc{Small Caps}, even \textsc{\textit{Italics Small Caps}}, and additional figure styles---superiors, inferiors and denominators. These features are available from either \verb|fontspec| or from [pdf]\LaTeX. In \LaTeX, you access these through the macros \verb|\textsu|, \verb|\textin| and \verb|\textde|, or through their font-switching equivalents \verb|\sufigures|, \verb|\infigures| and \verb|\defigures|.
