+
+ The `microtype' package
+ An interface to the micro-typographic extensions of pdfTeX
+ =================================
+ v1.9 2005/10/28
+
+
+* Overview
+ ----------
+
+The `microtype' package provides an interface to the micro-typographic
+extensions of pdfTeX: most prominently, character protrusion and font
+expansion, furthermore the possibility to disable all ligatures of a font.
+It allows to apply these features to customizable sets of fonts, and to
+configure all micro-typographic aspects of the fonts in a straight-
+forward and flexible way. Settings for various fonts are provided.
+
+Note: Font expansion and character protrusion will only work with pdfTeX,
+at least version 0.14f. Automatic font expansion requires version 1.20a
+or newer. The package will by default enable the features that can safely
+be assumed to work.
+
+The documentation can be found in microtype.pdf resp. microtype.dvi.
+
+A preview of the next version is also included, which supports the new
+experimental extensions of pdfTeX: adjustment of interword spacing (glue)
+and the possibility to specify additional character kerning.
+
+
+* Installation
+ --------------
+
+ - Run latex on microtype.ins to generate the package and configuration files
+ - Move all files into a directory where LaTeX will find them,
+ e.g. TEXMF/tex/latex/microtype
+
+ - Run (pdf)latex twice on microtype.dtx to create the documentation
+ - For an index run:
+ makeindex -s gind.ist -o microtype.ind microtype.idx
+ - For the change history run:
+ makeindex -s gglo.ist -o microtype.gls microtype.glo
