+# The Luaotfload Package
+
+VERSION: 2.9
+
+DATE: 2018-09-24
+
+
+## Description
+
+Luaotfload is an adaptation of the ConTeXt font loading system for the Plain
+and LaTeX formats. It allows OpenType fonts to be loaded with font features
+accessible using an extended font request syntax while providing compatibility
+with XeTeX. By indexing metadata in a database it facilitates loading fonts by
+their proper names instead of file names.
+
+Luaotfload may be loaded in Plain LuaTeX with "\input luaotfload.sty" and in
+LuaLaTeX with "\usepackage{luaotfload}". LuaLaTeX users may be interested in
+the fontspec package which provides a high-level interface to the functionality
+provided by this package.
+
+Please see the documentation luaotfload.pdf for more information.
