It comprises OT1, T1 and TS1 encoded text fonts of various shapes as well as all the fonts necessary for mathematical typesetting, incl. the AMS symbols. This distribution includes * the fonts in the Metafont format in the directory ./mf, * the font metrics in the directory ./tfm, * the DTX sources of the LaTeX macro package cmbright.sty and the related font definition files in the directory ./latex. The CM Bright fonts are available in the Type1 format, too. See . As to the license conditions for the fonts, see the file `copyrite.txt' in the subdirectory ./mf. As to the license conditions for the macro package and the .fd files, see the notice in the files cmbright.dtx and cmbr.fdd. Installing the fonts in MF format ================================= Skip this section, if you intend to use the CM Bright fonts in Type1 format only! Copy the files from the subdirectory ./mf of this collection to a directory searched by the Metafont program. In a TDS compliant file system the suitable place might be: texmf/fonts/source/public/cmbright You will need the source files of Knuth's original CM fonts, of the original (roman) AMS fonts, and of J. Knappen's EC fonts, too, in order to generate the bitmaps. Installing the font metrics and the LaTeX interface files ========================================================= Copy the files from the subdirectory ./tfm of this collection to a directory where TeX looks for the font metrics. In a TDS compliant file system the suitable place might be: texmf/fonts/tfm/public/cmbright Copy the files from the directory ./latex of this collection to a place where you keep documented LaTeX sources or to a temporary directory. Execute the installation script cmbright.ins by running it through LaTeX in this directory than; this will generate the file cmbright.sty and various .fd files. Move these files to a directory where you keep LaTeX's style files; in a TDS compliant files system the suitable place is: texmf/tex/latex/cmbright The latter step is not required if your "docstrip" program has been configured to write directly to the TeX directories and the directory tex/latex/cmbright exists in your TDS tree before unpacking the files. Using the fonts with LaTeX ========================== See the documentation, which is obtained by running the file cmbright.dtx through LaTeX. Future changes ============== Minor changes and/or bug fixes to the T1/TS1 fonts are still to be expected. All future changes, bug fixes and additions to the `official' EC fonts will be adopted, if appropriate. History ======= *** 2002-05-25 *** Fixed tbsymb.mf and all TFM's of the TC Bright fonts, which had wong \fontdimen's; notice that the the font shapes are unchanged! Documentation (cmbright.dtx) cleaned up. *** 2002-05-11 *** fixed cmbr8.tfm cmbr9.tfm cmbrmb10.tfm cmbrmi8.tfm cmbrmi9.tfm cmbrsl8.tfm cmbrsl9.tfm; TFMs are no longer mentioned in manifest.txt *** 2000-06-30 *** cmbright v7.1: Bug fix. Loading amsfonts.sty with the option [psamsfonts] would use the `roman' AMS fonts instead of the `Bright' ones. Improved documentation. *** 2000-02-09 *** fonts v1.0f: Fixed all Euro symbols. *** 1999-05-12 *** documentation revisited and reorganized *** 1999-03-28 *** cmbright.sty v6.9: new option [slantedGreek]; *** 1998-12-11 *** cmbright.sty v6.7: Fixed the math font setup, so that \mathbold acts on lowercase greek, too. fonts v1.0e: improved Euro symbol (the metrics remain unchanged!) *** 1998-02-02 *** fd files v7.3: font sizes 29.86 and 35.83 pt suppported *** 1998-01-19 *** Fixed cmbright.ins to prevent problems with Unix (teTeX): Do not generate uppercase filenames automatically. cmbright.ins now TDS-enabled. Added oinst.ins for LaTeX < Dec.1996. *** 1997-09-11 *** cmbright.sty v6.6: added \relax after \ProcessOptions, removed spurious spaces in font definitions fd files v7.2: forced \hyphenchar\font45 in OT1 fonts, removed spurious spaces in font definitions included the new installation script, which was erroneously lacking in the previous distribution :-( *** 1997-06-03 *** fixed a bug in the installation script: the fd files are now generated with mixed-case names if necessary (i.e. when running an obsolete LaTeX release on Unix) fonts, v1.0d: corrected height of arithmetic symbols in T1/TS1 fonts; *** 1997-05-26 *** Fonts, v1.0c: changed lowercase hachek accent in order to avoid METAFONT errors occurring with certain MF modes; fixed `root' symbol and big circles in TS1 fonts; corrected rule_width# in semibold fonts, which had been larger than it is in the bx fonts; *** 1997/05/22 *** fd files v7.0: lowercase filenames fonts v1.0b: br17pt.mf fixed (o#, apex_o#) cmbright.sty v6.4: minor fixes enhanced documentation *** 1996/11/20 *** Documentation update only, e-mail address added. *** 1996/07/02 *** cmbright.sty, v6.2: The code for selecting font size and \baselineskip has been basically changed. The default font sizes defined in the class file will no longer be changed. The size macros like \normalsize will no longer be redefined. Same font sizes will always get the same leading: size \baselineskip 8pt 10.00pt 9pt 11.25pt 10pt 12.50pt 11pt 13.70pt 12pt 15.00pt A new option [standard-baselineskips] enables you to suppress the enlarged \baseselineskip values. The commands \textregistered, \pounds, \textsterling and \mathsterling have been made working; they will use the roman text font. font definition files, v6.0: In all .fd files octal numbers have been changed to decimal ones, in order to avoid conflicts with possibly active quote characters. fonts, v1.0: erroneous comments fixed *** 1996/05/02 *** fonts: version 1.0 font definition files: 5.0 LaTeX package `cmbright': 5.0 The first `final' release, including the AMS fonts. %% finis
