-This directory contains files which provide support of Cyrillic fonts
-and encodings for FONTINST.
-
-Several font encodings (with variants) are supported (all *.etx
-files). Install all *.etx, *.mtx, *.tex files contained in this
-directory and subdirectories to your texmf tree. In this package, we
-support various glyph naming schemes (not only Adobe one). If you have
-Cyrillic fonts which use different glyph names which are not supported
-here, please send AFM files or information about glyph naming schemes,
-so that those fonts will also be supported for using with
-fontinst/cyrfinst. Please send additional glyph naming schemes used
-in various Cyrillic fonts (type1, type3, truetype) to add into this
-file.
-
-To use fontinst with Cyrillic, put the following lines in the
-beginning of the fontinst job:
-
-\input fontinst.sty
-\input fnstcorr
-\input cyralias
-
-Then for all non-adobe fonts (with non-standard glyph names, or
-speaking more strictly, for all fonts that require non-empty glyph
-name prefix shown below) write:
-
-\aliasfonts{prefix1-}{prefix2}{font1,font2,%
-font3,...,fontN}
-
-where "prefix1-" is a glyph name prefix defined in cyralias.tex; and
-"prefix2" is a font name prefix (it may well be empty; it was only
-made for space economy), so that font names are constructed by
-concatenation of "prefix2" and "font*". This will generate mtx and pl
-files for all specified fonts with T2 glyph names.
-
-Warning: the command \fromafm regenerates mtx file, so do not use this
-command for fonts which require non-empty "prefix1-", --- use \frommtx
-instead (or ensure to set \charnameprefix accordingly), or \fromany
-in recent versions of fontinst.
-
-The idea behind glyph aliasing is that standard T2 cyrillic glyph
-names could be used everywhere (cyrillic.mtx, *.etx, your local mtx
-files, etc), and one file serves all possible non-standard glyph
-names! We also consider this glyph aliasing mechanism as an important
-way to correct glyph naming bugs in certain fonts.
-
-Note also, that one should process fontinst cyrillic files with LaTeX
-(not Plain TeX).
-
-You can get nicely formatted sources of *.etx and *.mtx files by
-processing them with LaTeX. E.g., "latex t2a.etx" will generate
-"t2a.dvi" which documents the T2A encoding vector.
