+Haralambous Broken Typefaces PostScript Fonts
+(Adobe Type 1 format)
+
+Copyright (c) 2002 Torsten Bronger, torsten.bronger@gmx.de
+2002/05/23 Ver. 1.0
+
+
+This PostScript Type 1 implementation of the fonts yfrak, yswab and
+ygoth, originally created by Yannis Haralambous using METAFONT, is
+freely available for general use.
+
+The conversion was done with textrace, finetuning and hinting with
+pfaedit.
+
+This distribution does not contain the TFM files that are necessary to
+use the fonts with TeX; the TFM files can be obtained from CTAN, in
+fonts/gothic/{yfrak,yswab,ygoth}, where you also can find the Metafont
+sources of the original glyphs.
+
+Notice that the AFM files included in this distribution contain no
+ligature information, therefore they cannot be used to generate proper
+TFM files.
+
+The fragment for the dvips mapfile is
+yfrak yfrak-Regular < yfrak.pfb
+yswab yswab-Regular < yswab.pfb
+ygoth ygoth-Regular < ygoth.pfb
+
+
+Although the PFB files may still need some finetuning, the font
+metrics are frozen since 1990 and thus the use with TeX is totally
+unaffected by future improvements of the PFB files.
