The sqrcaps and allsqrc packages provide Metafont fonts based on the
Square Capitals manuscript book-hand used from the 1st century AD.
The font consists of capital letters and digits, with some appropriate
period punctuation marks. Both normal and bold versions are provided.
This is one in a series of manuscript fonts.
Access to the docmfp package is desireable but not essential.
The distribution consists of the following files:
README (this file)
sqrcaps.ins
sqrcaps.dtx
tryfont.tex
allfont.tex
The distribution is provided under the terms of the LaTeX
Project Public License (LPPL).
To install the package:
=======================
o run: latex sqrcaps.ins, which will generate:
sqrc*.mf files
*.fd files
sqrcaps.sty
allsqrc.sty
o Move the generated files to locations where LaTeX will find them.
For example: the sqrc*.mf files to .../texmf/fonts/source/public/sqrcaps
the *.fd and *.sty files to /texmf/tex/latex/local/sqrcaps
On a teTeX distribution you might also have to add lines like the
following to texmf/fontname/special.map:
sqrc7.mf public sqrcaps
sqrc10.mf public sqrcaps
sqrc17.mf public sqrcaps
sqrcb7.mf public sqrcaps
sqrcb10.mf public sqrcaps
sqrcb17.mf public sqrcaps
On a teTeX distribution remember to run texhash after moving the files.
(I use a teTeX distribution and found that if I didn't add to the special.map
file, then the generated tfm and pk files were put in directories corresponding
to some vendor's font.)
Other LaTeX distributions might require procedures similar to those for teTeX.
To typeset the documentation:
=============================
o run: latex sqrcaps.dtx
o if you want an index then run: makeindex -s gind.ist sqrcaps
o run: latex sqrcaps.dtx
o Print sqrcaps.dvi for a hardcopy of the package manual
Note that the docmfp package is normally required for LaTeXing sqrcaps.dtx.
The package is available from CTAN in tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/supported.
If you haven't got this and don't want to get it, then there are instructions
in the first part of the .dtx file about how to edit it to avoid the use of docmfp.
(docmfp is an extension of the doc package for describing METAFONT, or other
non-LaTeX, code.)
To check out your installation:
===============================
o run: latex tryfont for a testpage of the fonts
o run: latex allfont for a document typeset with the fonts
