This package is an extension of Bitstream Charter, whose original license is reproduced below, as required under the terms of that license. The extension provides small caps, oldstyle figures and superior figures in all four styles, accompanied by LaTeX font support files. The font files themselves are in otf and pfb formats. The fonts are licensed as Free fonts under the same terms as the original from Bitstream. All other support files are subject to the LaTeX Project Public License. See

+Changes in version 1.204
+1. Added the missing Dcroat glyphs in the otf files.
+2. Added Greek glyphs designed earlier for math use as text glyphs in the otf files. Currently, these are available only in Roman, Italic, Slanted and Bold, but the only ones with reasonably proper text spacing are Roman and Italic. These are not yet available to LaTeX users.
+3. For reasons I do not understand, with the current version of fontspec, loading XCharter with option Numbers={OldStyle} does not work, but RawFeature={+onum} does.
Changes in version 1.203
1. Corrected a bad LIGKERN entry affecting the >> ligature in t2 encodings.

Changes in version 1.20
-The mathematical parts of fonts have been enhanced so that, when used with newtxmath, they can produce pdf files that satisfy PDF/A-1b. See the newtxmath documentation for details. Note that \hslash, \hbar, \lambdaslsh and \lambdabar are now built from Charter glyphs.

Changes in version 1.122
1. Added many accented glyphs, so that XCharter can now be used to produce Romanized forms of Sanskrit, Tamil and Vietnamize, as well as other European languages.
