Knuth -only designed text fonts, since the book used the Euler fonts for -mathematics. The book was typeset using Plain TeX, of course, with -additional macros that may be viewed in a file <i>gkpmac.tex</i>, -which is available on CTAN. -<p/>The packages <i>beton</i>, <i>concmath</i>, and -<i>ccfonts</i> are LaTeX packages that change the default text -fonts from Computer Modern to Concrete. Packages <i>beton</i> and -<i>ccfonts</i> also slightly increase the default value of -<code>\</code><code>baselineskip</code> to account for the rather heavier weight of the -Concrete fonts. If you wish to use the <i>Euler</i> fonts for -mathematics, as Knuth did, there’s the <i>euler</i> package which -has been developed from Knuth’s own Plain TeX-based set: these -macros are currently deprecated (they clash with many things, including -AMSLaTeX). The independently-developed <i>eulervm</i> -bundle is therefore preferred to the <i>euler</i> package. (Note -that installing the <i>eulervm</i> bundle involves installing a -series of virtual fonts. While most modern distributions seem to have -the requisite files installed by default, you may find you have to -install them. If so, see the file <i>readme</i> in the -<i>eulervm</i> distribution.) -<p/>A few years after Knuth’s original design, Ulrik Vieth -designed the Concrete Math fonts. Packages -<i>concmath</i>, and <i>ccfonts</i> also change the default math -fonts from Computer Modern to Concrete and use the Concrete versions -of the AMS fonts (this last behaviour is optional in the case -of the <i>concmath</i> package). -<p/>There are no bold Concrete fonts, but it is generally accepted that -the Computer Modern Sans Serif demibold condensed fonts are an -adequate substitute. If you are using <i>concmath</i> or -<i>ccfonts</i> and you want to follow this suggestion, then use the -package with <code>boldsans</code> class option (in spite of the fact -that the <i>concmath</i> documentation calls it -<code>sansbold</code> class option). If you are using <i>beton</i>, -add -<blockquote> - <code>\</code><code>renewcommand{<code>\</code><code>bfdefault</code>}{sbc}</code> -</blockquote><p> -to the preamble of your document. -<p/>Type 1 versions of the fonts are available. For OT1 encoding, -they are available from <a href="FAQ-psfchoice.html">MicroPress</a>. The -<a href="FAQ-textrace.html">CM-Super fonts</a> contain Type 1 versions -of the Concrete fonts in T1 encoding. -<dl> -<dt><tt><i>beton.sty</i></tt><dd><a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/beton.zip">macros/latex/contrib/beton</a> (or <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/beton/">browse the directory</a>); <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/help/Catalogue/entries/beton.html">catalogue entry</a> -<dt><tt><i>ccfonts.sty</i></tt><dd><a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/ccfonts.zip">macros/latex/contrib/ccfonts</a> (or <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/ccfonts/">browse the directory</a>); <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/help/Catalogue/entries/ccfonts.html">catalogue entry</a> -<dt><tt><i>CM-Super fonts</i></tt><dd><a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/fonts/ps-type1/cm-super.zip">fonts/ps-type1/cm-super</a> (or <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/fonts/ps-type1/cm-super/">browse the directory</a>); <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/help/Catalogue/entries/cm-super.html">catalogue entry</a> -<dt><tt><i>concmath.sty</i></tt><dd><a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/concmath.zip">macros/latex/contrib/concmath</a> (or <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/concmath/">browse the directory</a>); <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/help/Catalogue/entries/concmath.html">catalogue entry</a> -<dt><tt><i>Concmath fonts</i></tt><dd><a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/fonts/concmath.zip">fonts/concmath</a> (or <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/fonts/concmath/">browse the directory</a>); <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/help/Catalogue/entries/concmath-fonts.html">catalogue entry</a> -<dt><tt><i>Concrete fonts</i></tt><dd><a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/fonts/concrete.zip">fonts/concrete</a> (or <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/fonts/concrete/">browse the directory</a>); <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/help/Catalogue/entries/concrete.html">catalogue entry</a> -<dt><tt><i>euler.sty</i></tt><dd><a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/euler.zip">macros/latex/contrib/euler</a> (or <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/euler/">browse the directory</a>); <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/help/Catalogue/entries/euler.html">catalogue entry</a> -<dt><tt><i>eulervm bundle</i></tt><dd><a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/fonts/eulervm.zip">fonts/eulervm</a> (or <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/fonts/eulervm/">browse the directory</a>); <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/help/Catalogue/entries/eulervm.html">catalogue entry</a> -<dt><tt><i>gkpmac.tex</i></tt><dd><a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/systems/knuth/local/lib/gkpmac.tex">systems/knuth/local/lib/gkpmac.tex</a>; <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org//help/Catalogue/entries/gkpmac.html">catalogue entry</a> -</dl> -<p/><p>This question on the Web: <a href="http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=concrete">http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=concrete</a> -</body> |
