To install the package, do the following:
Run LaTeX on eurofont.ins
Put eurofont.sty, eurofont.cfg, and all the files ending in .fd into a
directory on your tex-inputs search path.
Run LaTeX on eurofont.dtx and print out the documentation.
Read at least the introductory sections of the documentation.
If you want to use Adobe's Eurofonts, put the files zpeub.tfm -
zpeurt.tfm (all the files in the adobeuro/tfm/ directory) into a directory
on your tex-fonts search path. The file dvidrive.txt has
information on how to configure your dvi driver to use Adobe's Eurofonts.
If you want to use the Marvosym fount, read the eurofont package
documentation. The file dvidrive.txt has information on how to configure
your dvi driver to use the marvosym fount.
Read the documentation so you can set up the package to meet your needs.
FONTS CONTAINING EURO SYMBOLS
=============================
Aside from the Text Companion founts which accompany the EC founts (the T1
encoded version of the standard Computer Modern founts), Metafont euro
symbols are included in two other founts that I know of, both available
from CTAN. The following urls retrieve the packages from my nearest CTAN
mirror:
ftp://ftp.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/supported/china2e.zip
ftp://ftp.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/fonts/eurosym.zip
(other CTAN sites are listed at the end of this document)
There are PostScript Type 1 founts containing euro symbols: Adobe's
Eurofonts, a set of 12 founts providing seriffed, sanserif, and monospaced
euro symbols in medium upright, italic, bold, and bold italic version; and
the Marvosym fount, which has three euro symbols, very similar to the
medium upright seriffed, sanserif, and monospaced euro symbols from
Adobe.
Adobe's Eurofonts are available (September 1998) in a Mac version
from here:
ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/type/mac/all/eurofont.sea.hqx
ftp://ftp-pac.adobe.com/pub/adobe/type/mac/all/eurofont.sea.hqx
For Textures users on Macs, take the installer from CTAN:
systems/mac/textures/contrib/IdealFonts/EuroDefs.sit.hqx
systems/mac/textures/contrib/IdealFonts/README.IF
You should still download Adobe's Eurofonts separately.
And in a version suitable for MS-Windows PCs and Unix from here:
ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/type/win/all/eurofont.exe
ftp://ftp-pac.adobe.com/pub/adobe/type/win/all/eurofont.exe
these files are self-extracting archives on MS-Windows computers which
can be decompressed on Unix computers with the unzip command.
The marvosym fount is available from CTAN; this url retrieves the marvosym
fount from my nearest CTAN site (November 1998):
ftp://ftp.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/fonts/psfonts/marvosym.zip
CTAN SITES -- JANUARY 1999.
===========================
The three CTAN primary sites:
ctan.tug.org (in Massachusetts, USA)
ftp.dante.de (in Deutschland)
ftp.tex.ac.uk (in England)
this url can point you to your nearest CTAN site - there are many more
than the three above:
