+
+Kurier is a two-element sans-serif typeface. It was designed for a diploma
+in typeface design at the Warsaw Academy of Fine Arts under the supervision
+of Roman Tomaszewski. The result was presented with other Polish typefaces
+at the ATypI conference in Warsaw in 1975.
+
+Kurier was intended for linotype typesetting of newspapers and similar
+periodicals. The design goals included resistance to technological processes
+destructive to the letter shapes. As a result, amongst others, the typeface
+distinguishes itself through intra- and extra-letter white spaces as well
+as ink traps at cross-sections of some elements constituting the characters.
+
+This distribution contains a significantly extended set of characters covering
+the following modern alphabets: latin (including Vietnamese), cyrillic and
+greek as well as a number of additional symbols (including mathematical
+symbols). The fonts are prepared in Type 1 and OpenType formats. For use with
+TeX the following encoding files have been prepared: T1 (ec), T2 (abc), and
+OT2 -- cirilic, T5 (Vietnamese), OT4, QX, texansi and nonstandard (IL2 for
+the Czech fonts), as well as supporting macros and files defining fonts for
+LaTeX. The doc/fonts/kurier folder contains examples for plain TeX as well
+as for LaTeX and an example of typesetting mathematics.
+
+History:
+Version 0.9 was presented at the Polish TeX Users Group conference
+BachoTeX'2005, Bachotek, May 2005.
+
+Version 0.92 incorporates changes resulting from remarks and proposals
+received from several contributors.
+
+In the version 0.97 some new glyphs were added:
+Breveinverted, Hbar.small, Ubreveinvertedlow, Ubreveinvertedlow.small,
+breveinverted, breveinvertedlow, dotlessi.small, dotlessj.small,
+ubreveinvertedlow. Also encoding files were corrected.
+
+The version 0.98 contained corrected:
+-- the italic correction in math fonts
+-- exclamdown and questiondown ligatures in tfm files
+
+In the current version (0.99) .tfm files for math fonts were corrected
+again, as they contained improper parameters.
+
+The version 0.991 contained corrected glyph negationslash.
