librisadf
---------

librisadf consists of:
1. the Libris ADF Std fonts developed by Hirwen Harendel, Arkandis
Digital Foundry (ADF) and released under the terms set out in the files
COPYING and NOTICE;
2. (La)TeX support by Clea F. Rees released under the LPPL. All files
covered by the LPPL are listed in the file manifest.txt.

(La)TeX Support
---------------

The (La)TeX support uses modified T1 encodings. The regular version
reassigns certain slots which would otherwise be empty due to missing
glyphs. The "swash" version reassigns additional slots so that certain
glyphs are not accessible when the swash variant is active even though
they are provided by the font. To access these glyphs, ensure that the
regular version of the font is active. For details of the
modifications, see comments in t1-libris.etx and t1-librisswash.etx.

The (La)TeX support requires nfssext-cfr.sty. This file is available
from CTAN.

To use the fonts in a LaTeX document, add
	\usepackage{libris}
to your preamble. This will set the default sans-serif family to Libris
ADF Std. To use this as the default font, add the line
	\renewcommand{\familydefault}{\sfdefault}
to your preamble.

To use the "swash" variant which provides some alternative characters
and additional ligatures, use
	\swashstyle
to set this as default until further notice or
	\textswash{Hello!}
to typeset just the text "Hello!" in this style.

The (La)TeX support should be considered experimental. If you find any
problems, please let me know and I will try to correct them. If you can
send a fix, so much the better.
