The accompanying macro package, makes the +symbols accessible as LaTeX commands. + +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 such directory tree, +its documentation should tell you where to put new files. + + + +Installing the Type1 font file +------------------------------ +Copy the files dictsym.pfb and dictsym.pfm to the directory + + texmf/fonts/type1/public/dictsym + +of your TeX system. (The .pfm file is needed only for +applications other than TeX.) + +Copy the file dictsym.afm to: + + texmf/fonts/afm/public/dictsym + +Create these directories, if they do not yet exist. + + + +Installing the TeX support files +-------------------------------- +Unpack the ZIP archive dictsym.zip in the texmf directory +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 +--------------------------- +The present distribution comprises several font map files +for the DictSym font. 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 the DictSym font is +"dictsym.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 dictsym.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 dictsym.map + +With earlier versions of teTeX, consult its documentation +about how to add new map files to the system. + +Configuring VTeX/Free (v8.44 and above) +--------------------------------------- +Make VTeX read the additional font map ("aliasing") file +dictsym.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 "dictsym.ali" is to be added to the TYPE1 section +of the above-mentioned files: + +TYPE1 { + ... + dictsym.ali + } + + + +Using the DictSym font with LaTeX +--------------------------------- +See the file dictsym.pdf. (Unpacking of the archive, as +described above, creates a further copy of this file in the +the directory texmf/doc/latex/dictsym of your TeX system.) + + + +Legal notice +------------ +The font "DictSym" is made up from the files dictsym.pfb, +dictsym.afm and dictsym.pfm These files are subject to the +following conditions of use and distribution: + + Copyright (c) 2004 Georg Verweyen + + This work may be distributed and/or modified under the + conditions of the LaTeX Project Public License, either + version 1.3 of this license or (at your option) any later + version.
