+Available encodings are T1, TS1 (text companion) and LY1.
+
+
+Usage notes
+===========
+
+* The obsolete OT1 font encoding, while still being the
+default with LaTeX, is _not_ supported. Thus, you should
+switch to T1/TS1 or LY1 before using the Lucida Bright
+fonts, for instance:
+
+ \usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
+ \usepackage{textcomp}
+ \usepackage{lucidabr}
+ ...
+
+* Many, but not all of the Lucida fonts provide an Euro
+symbol \texteuro in the LY1 and TS1 encoding. Families or
+shapes that are lacking the Euro are marked in the above
+table with an asterisk.
+
+* The Lucida fonts do not include all symbols of the TS1
+(text companion) font encoding: Only those symbols are
+available, that belong to the ISO-Adobe 1 character set,
+plus the Omega and (partially) the Euro.
+
+* All demibold fonts are assigned to series `b'. The two
+sans serif bold fonts are assigned to `ub' (ultra bold).
+This means that with the exception of the Sans bold fonts
+_all_ fonts in the Lucida Bright font set are available
+through normal `user level' commands such as \bfseries,
+\sffamily etc. To access the bold Sans Serif use
+\fontseries{ub}\sffamily.
+
+* The blackletter font is made available in math mode as
+\mathfrak (with the lucidabr or lucbmath package). If you
+want to use this as a text font, you should define a command
+to execute \fontfamily{hlcf}\selectfont. Unfortunately, the
+available encodings do _not_ provide the "long s"; however,
+LucidaBlackletter was not made to mimick historical
+typesetting, anyway.
