The + service files have been generated using the "fontinst" package by + Alan Jeffrey. +- Having TypeSmith generated a buggy font, Louis Vosloo of Y&Y, with + enormous courtesy, has fixed the font in his spare time (I no longer + had an Amiga computer, or a font editor of any kind). +- Rolf Niepraschk submits a file pbsi.sty . +- A more strict dvips (5.86e) refuses to handle the font. Rolf + Niepraschk submits a fix, generated by the "type1fix" perl script. +- Having learnt about a free Type-1 font editor called 'pfaedit' by + George Williams (http://pfaedit.sourceforge.net) I have completely + re-edited the font. Thierry Bouche has been of invaluable help + with fontinst. + +Thanks to: Thierry Bouche <bouche@mozart.ujf-grenoble.Fr> + Rolf Niepraschk <niepraschk@ptb.de> + Louis Vosloo <support@yandy.com> + George Williams |
