# stixfonts OpenType Unicode fonts for Scientific, Technical, and Mathematical texts ## Description The Scientific and Technical Information eXchange (STIX) fonts are intended to satisfy the demanding needs of authors, publishers, printers, and others working in the scientific, medical, and technical fields. They combine a comprehensive Unicode-based collection of mathematical symbols and alphabets with a set of text faces suitable for professional publishing. The fonts are available royalty-free under the SIL Open Font License. See the [release notes](STIX_2.0.0_release_notes.txt) for a more detailed introduction to this version of the fonts. ## Type 1 support The STIX Two fonts are a set of OpenType fonts and are meant to be used in that format. For the benefit of LaTeX users who are currently unable to use XeTeX or LuaTeX, we have also provided a set of TFM, VF, and Type 1 files in the CTAN package stix2-type1. Please note that while development of the OpenType fonts is ongoing, no further updates to the Type 1 versions are planned.
