+name hieroglf
+category Package
+shortdesc The "poor man's" Egyptian Hieroglyphic font.
+longdesc The hieroglf bundle provides a Type 1 renidition of some of the
+longdesc ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs. Hieroglyphic writing was used
+longdesc between about 3000 BC and 400 AD. The bundle is based on Serge
+longdesc Rosmorduc's comprehensive hieroglyph package, but only provides
+longdesc about one tenth of his 650-odd hieroglyphs. Sufficient glyphs are
+longdesc provided for writing a few names like Cleopatra or Ptolomeny
+longdesc (together with cartouches) and some numbers, but the package is
+longdesc not for serious Egyptologists. The bundle is part of a set of
+longdesc archaic fonts, and requires use of the oands fonts from that set.
