+This directory contains support files to generate small-caps fonts
+from texnansi-encoded tfm's. The fontinst command should be
+something like
+
+\installfont{XXXrc8y}{XXXr8y,latin}{ly1c}
+ {ly1}{XXX}{m}{sc}{}
+
+This means: generate XXXrc8y.vpl from XXXr8y.pl and latin.mtx using
+encoding ly1c.etx and tell LaTeX that it has encoding ly1, family
+name XXX, series m and shape sc. The last, empty, parameter is an
+optional size specification.
+
+See makesc8y.tex for an example fontinst input file. It should be
+processed by LaTeX or PdfLaTeX.
+
+Fontinst appears to require pl files with a different unit length
+than produced by afm2pl. applying first pltotf and then tftopl fixes
+this.
+
+The files have been created for fontinst version 1.8
