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. + +## Maintenance + +This package is currently maintained at +<https://github.com/u-fischer/luaotfload>. + +Issues can be reported at the issue tracker or at the old issue tracker on +<http://github.com/lualatex/luaotfload>. + +The development for LuaLaTeX is discussed on the lualatex-dev mailing list.
