This is the README for the alegreya package, version 2013-11-13.

This package provides LaTeX, pdfLaTeX, XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX support
for the Alegreya family of fonts, designed by Juan Pablo del Peral
for Huerta Tipográfica.

To install this package on a TDS-compliant TeX system download the file
tex-archive/install/fonts/alegreya.tds.zip and unzip at the
root of an appropriate texmf tree, likely a personal or local tree. If
necessary, update the file-name database (e.g., texhash). Update the
font-map files by enabling the Map file alegreya.map.

To use, add

\usepackage{alegreya}

to the preamble of your document. This will activate Alegreya
as the main (serifed) text font. 

LuaLaTeX and xeLaTeX users who might prefer type1 fonts or who wish
to avoid fontspec may use the type1 option.

Options scaled=<number> or scale=<number> may be used to scale the
fonts.

The default figure style is proportional-lining, but the oldstyle
(or osf) option will change the default to OldStyle figures and
the tabular (or tf) option will change the default to tabular
(monospaced) figures. Option black selects the Black (ultrabold)
variants as the bold series.

Font encodings supported are OT1, T1, LY1 and TS1.

Commands \alegreya, \alegreyasc, \alegreyaBlck and \alegreyaBlcksc
select the Alagreya family, the small-capital shape, the black
series, and black small-capitals, respectively. Commands
\alegreyaLF, \alegreyaOsF, \alegreyaTLF, and \alegreyaTOsF allow for
localized use of non-default figures. Command \useosf switches the
default figure style to old-style figures; this is primarily for use
after calling a math package with lining figures as the default.

The original Truetype fonts were obtained from

http://www.google.com/fonts

and are licensed under the SIL Open Font License, version 1.1;
the text may be found in the doc directory. The type1 versions
were created using fontforge. The support files were created using
autoinst and are licensed under the terms of the LaTeX Project
Public License. The maintainer of this package is Bob Tennent (rdt
