+The package arev provides Type 1 fonts, virtual fonts and LaTeX
+packages for using Arev Sans for both text and mathematics. Arev Sans
+is a derivative of Bitstream Vera Sans created by Tavmjong Bah by
+adding support for Greek and Cyrillic characters. Bah also added a few
+variant letters that are more appropriate for mathematics. The primary
+purpose for using Arev Sans in LaTeX is presentations, particularly
+when using a computer projector. Arev Sans is quite readable for
+presentations, with large x-height, "open letters," wide spacing, and
+thick stems. The style is very similar to the SliTeX font lcmss, but
+heavier.
+
+Arev Sans is used for all letters and letter-like symbols and
+MathDesign bold math fonts for Bitstream Charter is used for most
+geometric symbols. Fourier-GUTenberg is used for blackboard bold,
+Ralph Formal Script for script, and the AMS fonts for fraktur.
+
+Arev Sans is released under the Bitstream Vera license. All files
+necessary to use Arev Sans with TeX were created by Stephen Hartke and
+are released under the LaTeX Project Public License, with the
+exception of ams-mdbch.sty, which is released under the GNU General
+Public License.
