It supplies a set of fonts based + on the excellent ones originally developed by + Sylvio Levi in the States and the modifications made + thereafter by Haralambous in France. + The approach adopted is different from both the + previous ones since it uses full 256 character fonts + and ligatures as the principal method of accenting + or "breathing" letters. This makes the macros more + robust and easier to use within TeX and LaTeX + environments. + +------------------------------------------------------------------------ +Note: Two different packages are included in this distribution. (Both + based on the same set of fonts). + * greektex : an extension of plain tex + * grlatex : an extension of LaTeX for greek texts. +------------------------------------------------------------------------ + +What it Includes: + > a complete set of fonts (regular,bold,italic) + > for working with plain tex a file to be included + which will import the macros and fonts needed + to add greek texts within your normal documents + (greektex.tex) + > for working with an extension of plain tex + a set of macros allowing the usage of greek + within specific environments and hyphenation + patterns for the greek langugage. Choosing + to use this option will mean that you will develop + the formatting of your text by yourself. + (command greektex) + > for working with LaTeX a style option that allows + entering greek text within specific environments + (all standard latex command still work e.g. font + size changing). For typesetting texts mainly in + greek a new format file which combines the greek + enviroment with hyphenation patters and an optional + global greek mode. + (command grlatex) + > A set of utilities that allow the conversion of extended + ASCII greek ISO character files to a format understandable + by grektex and grlatex.

The package -although it +will create a proper Format file- will not run properly under the +Mittelbach convention for font loading. In order to check +which on you have see your lfonts.tex file! (To make sure that +you do not have to retrieve the standard lfonts.tex I have included in +the latex directory -- please note the copyright notices for this file). + + +Hope you enjoy the package.
