This font existed with a commercial license for many years before. Support for LaTeX and the babel package was prepared several years ago by the author and I.\ Vasilogiorgakis. With the free availability of the fonts I have modified the original package so that it reflects the changes occured in the latest releases by \textsc{gfs}. The package supports three encodings: OT1, T1 and LGR to the extend that the font themselves cover these. OT1 and LGR should be fairly complete. The greek part is to be used with the greek option of the Babel package. The fonts are loaded with \verb|\usepackage{gfsdidot}|. The fonts as released contain an italic version, but its greek part is just the roman in slanted form. To overcome this problem for the greek part, we use for italic another font by \textsc{gfs} called Olga. As far as the latin part is concerned the italic characters are taken from Didot-Italic (Olga contains no latin characters). The package provides also a matching small caps shape for both latin and greek including old style numbers. Finally, the math symbols are taken from the pxfonts package except of course the characters that are already provided by Didot and Olga. The choice of pxfonts was made on the basis that the latin part of Didot is based on Palatino. Moreover, all Didot characters are scaled in the \verb|.fd| files by a factor of 1.04 in order to match the x-height of pxfonts. \section{Installation} Copy the contents of the subdirectory afm in texmf/fonts/afm/GFS/Didot/ \medskip \noindent Copy the contents of the subdirectory doc in texmf/doc/latex/GFS/Didot/ \medskip \noindent Copy the contents of the subdirectory enc in texmf/fonts/enc/dvips/GFS/Didot/ \medskip \noindent Copy the contents of the subdirectory map in texmf/fonts/map/dvips/GFS/Didot/ \medskip \noindent Copy the contents of the subdirectory tex in texmf/tex/latex/GFS/Didot/ \medskip \noindent Copy the contents of the subdirectory tfm in texmf/fonts/tfm/GFS/Didot/ \medskip \noindent Copy the contents of the subdirectory type1 in texmf/fonts/type1/GFS/Didot/ \medskip \noindent Copy the contents of the subdirectory vf in texmf/fonts/vf/GFS/Didot/ \medskip \noindent In your installations updmap.cfg file add the line \medskip \noindent Map gfsdidot.map \medskip Refresh your filename database and the map file database (for example, on Unix systems run mktexlsr and then run the updmap script as root). You are now ready to use the fonts provided that you have a relatively modern installation that includes pxfonts. \section{Usage} As said in the introduction the package covers both english and greek. Greek covers polytonic too through babel (read the documentation of the babel package and its greek option). For example, the preample \begin{verbatim} \documentclass{article} \usepackage[english,greek]{babel} \usepackage[iso-8859-7]{inputenc} \usepackage{gfsdidot} \end{verbatim} will be the correct setup for articles in Greek. \bigskip \subsection{Transformations by \texttt{dvips}} Other than the shapes provided by the fonts themselves, this package provides an upright italic shape and a slanted small caps shape using the standard mechanism provided by dvips. Upright italics are called with \verb|\uishape| and slanted small caps with \verb|\scslshape|. For example, the code \begin{verbatim} {\itshape italics {\uishape upright italics} {\itshape italics again} \textgreek{{\itshape >'αβγδζξφψ`ω| {\uishape >'αβγδζξφψ`ω|} {\itshape >'αβγδζξφψ`ω|}}}} \textsc{small caps \textgreek{πεζοκεφαλαία} 0123456789} {\scslshape \textgreek{πεζοκεφαλαία 0123456789}} \end{verbatim} will give {\itshape italics {\uishape upright italics} {\itshape italics again} \textgreek{{\itshape >'αβγδζξφψ`ω| {\uishape >'αβγδζξφψ`ω|} {\itshape >'αβγδζξφψ`ω|}}}} \textsc{small caps \textgreek{πεζοκεφαλαία} 0123456789} {\scslshape \textgreek{πεζοκεφαλαία 0123456789}} \noindent The commands \verb|\textui{}| and \verb|\textscsl{}| are also provided. \subsection{Tabular numbers} Tabular numbers (of fixed width) are accessed with the command \verb|\tabnums{}|. Compare \begin{tabular}{ll} \verb+|0|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|+ & |0|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|\\ \verb+\tabnums{|0|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|}+ & \tabnums{|0|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|} \end{tabular} \subsection{Text fractions} Text fractions are composed using the lower and upper numerals provided by the fonts, and are accessed with the command \verb|\textfrac{}{}|. For example, \verb|\textfrac{-22}{7}| gives \textfrac{-22}{7}. Precomposed fractions are provided too by \verb|\onehalf|, \verb|\onethird|, etc. \subsection{Additional characters} \begin{center} \begin{tabular}{|c|c|}\hline \verb|\textbullet| &\textbullet \\ \hline \verb|\textparagraph| &\textparagraph \\ \hline \verb|\textparagraphalt| & \textparagraphalt\\ \hline \verb|\careof| & \careof\\ \hline \verb|\numero| & \numero\\ \hline \verb|\estimated| & \estimated\\ \hline \verb|\whitebullet| & \whitebullet\\ \hline \verb|\textlozenge| & \textlozenge\\ \hline \verb|\eurocurrency| & \eurocurrency\\ \hline \verb|\interrobang| & \interrobang\\ \hline \verb|\textdagger| & \textdagger\\ \hline \verb|\textdaggerdbl| & \textdaggerdbl\\ \hline \verb|\yencurrency| & \yencurrency\\ \hline \end{tabular} \end{center} Euro is also available in LGR enconding. \verb|\textgreek{\euro}| gives \textgreek{\euro}. \subsection{Alternate characters} In the greek encoding the initial theta is chosen automatically. Compare: \textgreek{θάλασσα} but \textgreek{Αθηνά}. Other alternate characters are not chosen automatically. Olga provides a double lambda: \lambdadbl. This can be accessed with the command \verb|\lambdadbl| in textmode. For example, in LGR encoding \medskip \verb|\textit{a\lambdadbl'a kat'allhlos metasjhmatism;oc}| \smallskip gives \smallskip \textgreek{\textit{a\lambdadbl'a kat'allhlos metasqhmatism'oc}}. \section{Problems} The accents of the capital letters should hang in the left margin when such a letter starts a line. \TeX\ and \LaTeX\ do not provide the tools for such a feature. However, this seems to be possible with \textlatin{pdf\TeX} As this is work in progress, please be patient\ldots \section{Samples} The next two pages provide samples in english and greek with math. \newpage Adding up these inequalities with respect to $i$, we get \begin{equation} \sum c_i d_i \leq \frac1{p} +\frac1{q} =1\label{10}\end{equation} since $\sum c_i^p =\sum d_i^q =1$.\hfill$\Box$ In the case $p=q=2$ the above inequality is also called the \textit{Cauchy-Schwartz inequality}. Notice, also, that by formally defining $\left( \sum |b_k|^q\right)^{1/q}$ to be $\sup |b_k|$ for $q=\infty$, we give sense to (9) for all $1\leq p\leq\infty$. A similar inequality is true for functions instead of sequences with the sums being substituted by integrals. \medskip \textbf{Theorem} {\itshape Let $1
