+If you want to replace the standard skak fonts with the new ones then
+you have uskak.fd to replace the original one.
+
+Copy
+*.pfb to texmf/fonts/type1
+*.tfm to texmf/fonts/tfm
+*.map to texmf/dvips/config
+or where your system expect to find them.
+
+To use the diagram font with the skak package you have to redefine
+the first line of the definition \setup@showboard in skak.sty (and
+this is essential for compiling SkakNew.tex). Maybe in future
+versions of skak there will be a better interface for selecting
+chess fonts ... don't blame me for this.
+
+> \def\setup@showboard#1{\font\Skak=skak#1%
+--
+< \def\setup@showboard#1{\font\Skak=SkakNew-Diagram at#1pt%
+
+All further questions concerning the skak package should go to Torben
+Hoffmann. Another useful chess tool for LaTeX is pgn2ltx by Dirk
+B\"achle which will automatically convert PGN files to LaTeX/skak.
+
+You will find technical details on my web site
+http://www.art-satz.de/portfolio/schriften.html
+although it's in german. If you want extensions to the fonts you can
+write to me at info@art-satz.de, and I'll think about it ;-)
