These fonts +(8 families of four text fonts each, and three special-purpose fonts) +are of course widely used, because of their simple availability. The +set consists of: +<ul> +<li> <i>Times</i> family (4 fonts) +<li> <i>Palatino</i> family (4 fonts) +<li> <i>New</i> <i>Century</i> <i>Schoolbook</i> family (4 fonts) +<li> <i>Bookman</i> family (4 fonts) +<li> <i>Helvetica</i> family (4 fonts) +<li> <i>Avant</i> <i>Garde</i> (4 fonts) +<li> <i>Courier</i> family (4 fonts) +<li> <i>Utopia</i> family (4 fonts) +<li> Zapf <i>Chancery</i> (1 font) +<li> Zapf <i>Dingbats</i> (1 font) +<li> <i>Symbol</i> (1 font) +</ul> +All these fonts are supported, for LaTeX users, by the +<i>psnfss</i> set of metrics and support files in the file +<i>lw35nfss.zip</i> on CTAN. Almost any remotely modern TeX +system will have some version of <i>psnfss</i> installed, but +users should note that the most recent version has much improved +coverage of maths-with-<i>Times</i> and -<i>Palatino</i>, as +well as a more reliable set of font metrics. +<p>The archive <i>lw35nfss.zip</i> is laid out according to the +TDS, so in principle, installation consists simply of +"unzipping" the file at the root of a <i>texmf</i> tree. +<p>Documentation of the <i>psnfss</i> bundle is provided in +<i>psnfss2e.pdf</i> in the distribution. +<dl> +<dt><tt><i>psnfss bundle</i></tt><dd><a href="ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/required/psnfss.zip">macros/latex/required/psnfss</a> (<a href="ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/required/psnfss.tar.gz">gzipped tar</a>, <a href="http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/required/psnfss/">browse</a>) +</dl> +<p><p>This question on the Web: <a href="http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=instprinterfont">http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=instprinterfont</a> +</body> |
