-ALLRUNES
- The allrunes package is a set of fonts and a LaTeX package
- for writing runes of all kinds using LaTeX.
-
-AUTHOR AND HOMEPAGE

- More information can be found at
- http://www.maths.lth.se/~carl/allrunes/

-
-VERSION
- This README.txt describes the allrunes version 2.1
-
-CHANGES
- 1.0 First public release.
- 1.01 Removed a few remaining 8-bit characters from
- frum.mf. They didn't work with the new MiKTeX
- package handling system. Also added a lost table,
- added an example and corrected a few spelling
- mistakes in the documentation.
- 2.0 Added type1 versions for the main types of the
- allrunes fonts, and support for them in the LaTeX package.
- Merged the former Scandinavian-Gothic and the Continental
- font families to a Common Germanic font family. Renamed the
- commands for flipping and turning runes. Made the commands
- for flipping and turning runes work for all six font families.
- Inserted kerning information for the Common Germanic and
- Anglo-Frisian font families. Complemented the sets of runes
- with a few more, especially the Medieval one. Corrected many
- spelling mistakes in the documentation.
- 2.1 Modified the handling of type1 fontes to take advantage
- of the new map-file handling system of MiKTeX- and teTeX-
- implementations. Removed a bug that prevented the use of
- medieval rune with straight twigs. Minor updates to the
- documentation.
-
-FILES AND DIRECTORIES AT CTAN
- README.txt This file.
- allrunes.dtx The source for the allrunes Metafont fonts and
- LaTeX package.
- allrunes.ins Driver file for allrunes.dtx
- allrunes.ps PostScript version of the documentation,
- using only mf (pk) fonts.
- allrunes.pdf Pdf version of the documentation,
- using only type1 fonts.
- type1 Directory for the type1 fonts, containing:
- pfb Directory for the pfb files
- allrunes.map Map file for mapping the type1 file names
-
-REQUIREMENTS
- The installation of the allrunes package requires the docstrip
- package. Using the allrunes package requires the ifthen package.
- Processing the documentation for the allrunes package requires
- the fontenc package and the ec fonts. I do not know what version
- of LaTeX is required.
-
-INSTALLATION (OF THE LATEX PACKAGE AND THE METAFONT SOURCE FILES)
- The installation procedure is described in the documentation, but
- since there is weak catch 22, in that you might need the fonts to
- produce the documentation, and you might need the documentation to
- install the fonts, it's also described here. The descriptions below
- are intended to be correct for MiKTeX version 2.3 and 2.4, and for
- teTeX version 2.0.
-
- 1. Download the files allrunes.ins and allrunes.dtx to a preferably
- empty directory. If you intend to keep the documentation, you'd
- better create a suitable directory and put the files there right
- now; like
- <tex doc base>/fonts/allrunes/
- In a typical MiKTeX system it would be
- C:\texmf\doc\fonts\allrunes\
- In a teTeX system it might be like
- /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/doc/fonts/allrunes/
- 2. Start a window where you can enter commands from the keyboard,
- i.e. get an DOS prompt on a Windows machine or a xterm-window
- on a UNIX/linux machine.
- 3. Go to the directory where you did put the files allrunes.dtx
- and allrunes.ins
- 4. Run the command
- latex allrunes.ins
- Wait. There are 231 files to be generated.
- 5. Move all the 224 *.mf files to a suitable directory, preferably
- <font source base>/public/allrunes/
- which in a typical MiKTeX system would be
- C:\texmf\fonts\source\public\allrunes\
- In a teTeX system it might be like
- /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/fonts/source/public/allrunes/
- 6. Move the 6 *.fd files and the file allrunes.sty
- to a suitable directory, preferably
- <tex base>/tex/latex/allrunes/
- which in a typical MiKTeX system would be
- C:\texmf\tex\latex\allrunes\
- In a typical teTeX system it would be like
- /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/tex/latex/allrunes/
- 7. Refresh the file name database. In MiKTeX you would run
- the command
- initexmf -u
- or find it somewhere in Start|Program|MiKTeX...
- In teTeX you would just run
- texhash
- or use the configuration tool
- texconfig
- and find some suitable alternative.
- 8. Run the command
- latex allrunes.dtx
- to produce the documentation and test the installation.
- Run it one more time to resolve the references, before
- you view it.
-
-INSTALLATION (OF THE TYPE1 FONT FILES)
-
- Installation of the type1 fonts requires the allrunes package
- to be installed according to the above description. Be sure
- that both LaTeX and dvips works fine with the Metafont
- fonts before you install the type1 fonts.
-
- 1. Copy all the files (named fru??.pfb) from the type1/pfb
- directory to a suitable directory, preferably
- <type1 font base>/public/allrunes
- which in a typical MiKTeX system would be
- C:\texmf\fonts\type1\public\allrunes\
- and in a teTeX system it might be like
- /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/fonts/type1/public/allrunes/
- 2. Copy the file allrunes.map from the type1 directory
- to some suitable directory, like
- <dvips base>/allrunes
- which in a typical MiKTeX system would be
- C:\texmf\dvips\allrunes\
- and in a teTeX system it might be like
- /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/dvips/allrunes/
- 3. Edit the file
- <texmf base>/web2c/updmap.cfg
- which in a typical MiKTeX system would be
- C:\texmf\web2c\updmap.cfg
- and in a teTeX system it might be like
- /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg
- search for a line like:
- MixedMap allrunes.map
- in the file. If the line is not present, then add that line.
- 4. Refresh the file name database, see paragraph 7 above.
- 5. Update the other .map files. In MiKTeX you run
- initexmf -v --mkmap
- and in teTeX you run
- updmap
- 6. Run
- latex allrunes.dtx
- then try both
- dvips -Ppk allrunes
- (which will use the bitmapped pk fonts) and
- dvips -Poutline allrunes
- (which will use the ouline type1 fonts). You might also try
- pdflatex allrunes.dtx
-
