If you forget to do that, your document could seem ugly if you +read them with xdvi or yap. Anyway, pdf versions and printing will be +fine. + +SMALL CAPITALS +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +To obtain small capitals with the charter and utopia version of the +fonts, you must: + +1) Obtain the corresponding commercial fonts from your favorite font + seller. This is the font you'll need : + + Charter : Charter Small Cap (bchrc8a.pfb) + Charter Bold Small Cap (bchbc8a.pfb) + + Utopia : Utopia Expert Regular (putr8x.pfb) + Utopia Expert Bold (putb8x.pfb) + + You need the Windows Postscript versions of the fonts. + +2) Rename the preceding font files. I have indicated in + parenthesis the new name of each file. + +3) Put the renamed file somewhere tex will be able to find them. + + $TEXMF/fonts/type1/bitsrea/charter + + or + + $TEXMF/fonts/type1/adobe/utopia + + should be fine. + +4) Refresh your texmf file database, by running an utility like + "mktexlsr" or "texconfig rehash". + +5) That's it ! Now use the mathdesign package with the option + "expert". Small caps and oldstyle figure are available with the + command \textsc{...}. + +CHANGES +~~~~~~~ + +v 1.55 * The emplacement of some files has changed + * 'faked' small caps are now avalaible + +v 1.5 * Even more spacing corrections + * A config file mathdesign.cfg is now avalaible + * A new \figurecircled command is defined + * \circledS gives the expected result + * \bigvee and \bigwedge are now correct + * \heart and \diamond are now outlined + * New "expert" option added + +v 1.41 * Corrected a bug in option parsing of mathdesign.sty + +v 1.4 * Dimensions of large delimiters are now correct + * Indices and exposant of script letters correctly placed + * Overshoot of greek letters corrected (muchas gracias a Ricard + Torres por haberme seņalado el problema) + * Slanted font have now correct names in map files (merci ā + Jean-Michel Sarlat) + * Symbols added (\smallin, various multiple integrals) + +v 1.31 * Style files don't use \AtBeginDocument any longer (except for + \euro). + +v 1.3 * The text fonts of Charter and Utopia have been slightly reduced + * Support of sans serif and monospaced fonts simplified + * Many approachs corrected + * Some kerning correction in Charter + * Option 'amssymb' deprecated (the ams symbol are now loaded + when needed) + +v 1.2 * New family added: Bitstream Charter + * Options of the package use now the keyval syntax + +v 1.1 * Many small corrections in glyph design + * Approachs of Garamond have been tightened *a lot* + * Arrows shape of Garamond changed + +v 1.0 * Initial release + + +REQUIREMENTS +~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +A recent TeX distribution (tetex v. >3.0 or miktex v. >2.0) is +strongly recommended: the installation process will be *much* +easier. + +The text fonts must be already installed on your system. If these +fonts are free, you can download them from CTAN. If not, you must get +them from the supplier. + +What you need precisely are the *.pfb files. Install them on your +texmf tree in the directory + + $TEXMF/fonts/type1/supplier/name + +where $TEXMF is the path of your texmf root, supplier is the name of +the supplier of the font (e.g. adobe) and name is the name of +the font (e.g. utopia). + +If you use some recent distribution (e.g. MikTeX, tetex, etc.) +the free fonts are probably already installed on your system. + + +INSTALLATION +~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +0) First, you must choose the texmf tree where you want to install the + Math Design fonts. This tree is probably some local or personal tree + (for example: "c:/localtexmf" with miktex v2.3>). + +1) Install now the core files, required by all the Math Design + package. Download the archive mdcore.zip and unzip it in the root + directory of the texmf tree you have chosen. + +2) Download the archive of each family and unzip it in the root + directory of the texmf tree you have chosen. + +3) Now refresh your texmf file database, by running an utility + like "mktexlsr" or "texconfig rehash". + +4) Update the configuration files of your favourite drivers + (e.g. dvips, xdvi, yap, pdftex, etc.). + + On recent distributions, a script called 'updmap' does all the job + for you. + + Add the following lines at the end of the file 'updmap.cfg': + + Map mdput.map + Map mdugm.map + Map mdbch.map + + and then run 'updmap' from a command line. + + +ENJOY +~~~~~ + +To use the package, simply add the following line in the preamble of +your source file: + +\usepackage[supplier-typeface]{mathdesign} + +Where supplier-typeface is one the following: + + adobe-utopia + urw-garamond + bitsream-charter + +Please read the documentation for more options and commands. + + +Thank you for using the Math Design fonts and happy TeXing :-) + + +Paul Pichaureau, paul.pichaureau@alcandre.net + + + Paris, Easter 2005 + + |
