+
+This METAFONT files will generate a font which is used in Austrian schools for
+hand writing. There are two sizes, 10pt and 20pt.
+
+The Austrian School Writing Font differs from german hand writing fonts in many
+details; e.g. you have to continue lowercase letters at the middle bar after
+capital letters F,H, and Z.
+
+The font contains all letters including a sharp s, digits, a few typographic
+characters .,;:()!? german quotes, and dashes. There is just one accent (umlaut).
+This should be sufficient for german and english texts.
+
+Additionally are some letter variants for ligatures. In normal circumstances you
+will NOT need any explicit use of them. The ligtables in the font will do the
+job for you.
+
+The font is based on the newer T1 encoding and can handle ligatures with umlaut
+accent. All accented letters (also lowercase \"e and \"i) are contained as
+glyphs.
+
+Umlaut accent can be applied in 3 different ways:
+.) (sure one) as e.g. \"a
+.) e.g. "a (without \) works without the package german in the text environment,
+because the ligatures "a,"o,"u,"A,"O,"U,"s,"`,"``,"', and "'' are part of the font.
+If you have umlaut accents in normal text use the package german and accents are
+correct in both environments. Just quotes will not work, since the package german
+assumes OT1-fonts(!). Use \gsqon/\gsqoff or \gqon/\gqoff respectively.
+.) Windows texts with ä,ö,ü,Ä,Ö, and Ü will be treated correct in the text environment,
+just ß (sharp-s) will not work. This is not possible for normal (Computer Modern) text.
+
+Most special characters can be used by an extra command:
+\i \j dotless i or j
+\ii \jj dotless i or j (variant in combination with FHZ)
+\ae \oe \ue variant umlaut accent lowercase letters in combination with FHZ
+\B \D \I \N \O \Oe \P \S \T \V \W capital letters with starting small dash
+\x \r special characters used at the beginning of a word
+\s final s (normal s has an extra dash)
+\Fe \He \Ze \Pf ligatures

+Files:
+oesch.sty Package oesch
+oe.def Encoding oe
+oesch.mf Metafont file option 10pt
+oeschb.mf Metafont file option 20pt
+oesch_m.mf Metafont main file
+lig.mf ligtables
+readme.txt this file
+liesmich.txt readme.txt in german
+beispiel.tex example.tex in german
+example.tex example
+
+Installation:
+Put oesch.sty and oe.def into a directory, where LaTeX will look for them e.g. TeX/LaTex/misc
+Put *.mf into a directory, where MetaFont will look for them e.g. fonts/source/public/misc.
+
+Usage:
+For short examples use \textoesch{Text}. Long texts use \oeschfamily
+or \oeschbfamily. Furthermore I recommend to use it with
+\renewcommand{\baselinestretch}{1.4}.
