+
+    To install the bundle:
+o If you want MetaFont sources uncomment the appropriate lines in linearb.ins.
+o run: latex linearb.ins, which will generate:
+       linearb.sty
+       *.fd files
+       linearb.map
+       and possibly linb10.mf
+o Move *.sty and *.fd files to a location where LaTeX will find them
+    e.g., .../texmf-local/tex/latex/linearb
+o Move *.afm, *.pfb and *.tfm files to where LaTeX looks for font information
+    e.g., .../texmf-var/fonts/afm/public/archaic/*.afm
+          .../texmf-var/fonts/type1/public/archaic/*.pfb
+          .../texmf-var/fonts/tfm/public/archaic/*.tfm
+o Add the *.map information to the dvips/pdftex font maps
+   If you want the MetaFont version as well:
+   o Move the *.mf files to, e.g., .../texmf-var/fonts/source/public/linearb
+   o Add a line like the following to the (texmf/fontname/)special.map file:
+     linb10.mf    public      linearb 
+o Refresh the database
+ (for more information on the above see the FAQ).
+
+o run: (pdf)latex trylinearb for a test of the font
+
+    If you want a full manual with all the MetaFont and LaTeX code and commentry, 
+comment out the \OnlyDescription line in linearb.dtx.
+o run: (pdf)latex linearb.dtx
+o (for an index run: makeindex -s gind.ist *.idx)
+o run: (pdf)latex *.dtx
+o Print *.(pdf|dvi) for a hardcopy of the package manual
