+This package includes TeX support files for Gentium.
+
+FONT:
+====
+
+See:
+- http://scripts.sil.org/Gentium
+- http://scripts.sil.org/Gentium_basic
+
+Gentium Basic is there only to supplement Gentium which has no bold variant.
+It might be removed (or split into a separate package & completed)
+when bold & bold italic Gentium is released.
+
+MACROS:
+======
+
+At the moment this package only provides ConTeXt macros,
+but TeX or LaTeX contributions (.fd files) are welcome
+and will be included in the package if anyone sends them.
+
+ENCODINGS:
+=========
+
+The package provides font files needed for either XeTeX/LuaTeX or pdfTeX.
+For pdfTeX the following encodings are available:
+- Greek:
+ * agr
+- Latin:
+ * ec T1 - for most European languages
+ * texnansi LY1 - for most Western European languages
+ * l7x L7x - for Baltic languages
+ * qx QX - for Polish
+ * t5 T5 - for Vietnames
+- Cyrillic:
+ * t2a T2A - cyrillic; this is just a placeholder and is not finished yet;
+ any contributions welcome
