+============================================================
+ The DictSym font and the LaTeX macro package dictsym.sty
+ 2004-07-26
+============================================================
+ Walter Schmidt
+ w.a.schmidt(at)gmx.net
+
+
+This directory contains the "DictSym" Type1 font designed by
+Georg Verweyen and all files required to use it with LaTeX
+on the Un*x or PC platform.
+
+The font provides a number of symbols commonly used in
+dictionaries. 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.)
+

+\maketitle\thispagestyle{empty}
+
+The PostScript font `DictSym' (designed by Georg Verweyen) provides a
+number of symbols commonly found in dictionaries.
+The macro package
+\Lpack{dictsym} serves to use of this font with \LaTeX{}. It provides
+the following commands to print the symbols of the font:
+
+\renewcommand{\arraystretch}{1.5}
+\begin{tabular}{ll@{\qquad}ll}
+ \dsarchitectural &|\dsarchitectural| & \dsmathematical &|\dsmathematical| \\
+ \dsbiological &|\dsbiological| & \dsrailways &|\dsrailways| \\
+ \dschemical &|\dschemical| & \dstechnical &|\dstechnical| \\
+ \dsagricultural &|\dsagricultural| & \dsmilitary &|\dsmilitary| \\
+ \dsheraldical &|\dsheraldical| & \dsaeronautical &|\dsaeronautical| \\
+ \dsjuridical &|\dsjuridical| & \dscommercial &|\dscommercial| \\
+ \dsliterary &|\dsliterary| & \dsmedical &|\dsmedical| \\
+\end{tabular}
+
+By default, the symbols are typeset at the same nominal font size
+as the surrounding text. When the package is loaded with the option
+\texttt{[scaled=}\m{scale}\texttt{]},
+the DictSym font will be scaled by the indicated factor. For instance,
+\begin{quote}
+ |\usepackage[scaled=1.1]{dictsym}|
+\end{quote}
+will enlarge the symbols by 10\%.
+Thus, you can make the `dictionary symbols' match exactly the optical
+appearance of the surrounding typeface. The above table shows the
+symbols at 150\% of their natural size.
+
