The allrunes package is a set of fonts and a LaTeX package
for writing runes of all kinds using LaTeX.
AUTHOR AND HOMEPAGE
Carl-Gustav Werner is the author of allrunes.

VERSION
This README.txt describes the allrunes version 2.1
CHANGES
1.0 First public release.
1.01 Removed a few remaining 8-bit characters from
frum.mf. They didn't work with the new MiKTeX
package handling system. Also added a lost table,
added an example and corrected a few spelling
mistakes in the documentation.
2.0 Added type1 versions for the main types of the
allrunes fonts, and support for them in the LaTeX package.
Merged the former Scandinavian-Gothic and the Continental
font families to a Common Germanic font family. Renamed the
commands for flipping and turning runes. Made the commands
for flipping and turning runes work for all six font families.
Inserted kerning information for the Common Germanic and
Anglo-Frisian font families. Complemented the sets of runes
with a few more, especially the Medieval one. Corrected many
spelling mistakes in the documentation.
2.1 Modified the handling of type1 fontes to take advantage
of the new map-file handling system of MiKTeX- and teTeX-
implementations. Removed a bug that prevented the use of
medieval rune with straight twigs. Minor updates to the
documentation.
FILES AND DIRECTORIES AT CTAN
README.txt This file.
allrunes.dtx The source for the allrunes Metafont fonts and
LaTeX package.
allrunes.ins Driver file for allrunes.dtx
allrunes.ps PostScript version of the documentation,
using only mf (pk) fonts.
allrunes.pdf Pdf version of the documentation,
using only type1 fonts.
type1 Directory for the type1 fonts, containing:
pfb Directory for the pfb files
allrunes.map Map file for mapping the type1 file names
REQUIREMENTS
The installation of the allrunes package requires the docstrip
package. Using the allrunes package requires the ifthen package.
Processing the documentation for the allrunes package requires
the fontenc package and the ec fonts. I do not know what version
of LaTeX is required.
INSTALLATION (OF THE LATEX PACKAGE AND THE METAFONT SOURCE FILES)
The installation procedure is described in the documentation, but
since there is weak catch 22, in that you might need the fonts to
produce the documentation, and you might need the documentation to
install the fonts, it's also described here. The descriptions below
are intended to be correct for MiKTeX version 2.3 and 2.4, and for
teTeX version 2.0.
1. Download the files allrunes.ins and allrunes.dtx to a preferably
empty directory. If you intend to keep the documentation, you'd
better create a suitable directory and put the files there right
now; like
<tex doc base>/fonts/allrunes/
In a typical MiKTeX system it would be
C:\texmf\doc\fonts\allrunes\
In a teTeX system it might be like
/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/doc/fonts/allrunes/
2. Start a window where you can enter commands from the keyboard,
i.e. get an DOS prompt on a Windows machine or a xterm-window
on a UNIX/linux machine.
3. Go to the directory where you did put the files allrunes.dtx
and allrunes.ins
4. Run the command
latex allrunes.ins
Wait. There are 231 files to be generated.
5. Move all the 224 *.mf files to a suitable directory, preferably
<font source base>/public/allrunes/
which in a typical MiKTeX system would be
C:\texmf\fonts\source\public\allrunes\
In a teTeX system it might be like
/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/fonts/source/public/allrunes/
6. Move the 6 *.fd files and the file allrunes.sty
to a suitable directory, preferably
<tex base>/tex/latex/allrunes/
which in a typical MiKTeX system would be
C:\texmf\tex\latex\allrunes\
In a typical teTeX system it would be like
/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/tex/latex/allrunes/
7. Refresh the file name database. In MiKTeX you would run
the command
initexmf -u
or find it somewhere in Start|Program|MiKTeX...
In teTeX you would just run
texhash
or use the configuration tool
texconfig
and find some suitable alternative.
8. Run the command
latex allrunes.dtx
to produce the documentation and test the installation.
Run it one more time to resolve the references, before
you view it.
INSTALLATION (OF THE TYPE1 FONT FILES)
Installation of the type1 fonts requires the allrunes package
to be installed according to the above description. Be sure
that both LaTeX and dvips works fine with the Metafont
fonts before you install the type1 fonts.
1. Copy all the files (named fru??.pfb) from the type1/pfb
directory to a suitable directory, preferably
<type1 font base>/public/allrunes
which in a typical MiKTeX system would be
C:\texmf\fonts\type1\public\allrunes\
and in a teTeX system it might be like
/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/fonts/type1/public/allrunes/
2. Copy the file allrunes.map from the type1 directory
to some suitable directory, like
<dvips base>/allrunes
which in a typical MiKTeX system would be
C:\texmf\dvips\allrunes\
and in a teTeX system it might be like
/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/dvips/allrunes/
3. Edit the file
<texmf base>/web2c/updmap.cfg
which in a typical MiKTeX system would be
C:\texmf\web2c\updmap.cfg
and in a teTeX system it might be like
/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg
search for a line like:
MixedMap allrunes.map
in the file. If the line is not present, then add that line.
4. Refresh the file name database, see paragraph 7 above.
5. Update the other .map files. In MiKTeX you run
initexmf -v --mkmap
and in teTeX you run
updmap
6. Run
latex allrunes.dtx
then try both
dvips -Ppk allrunes
(which will use the bitmapped pk fonts) and
dvips -Poutline allrunes
(which will use the ouline type1 fonts). You might also try
pdflatex allrunes.dtx
