Classic Cyrillic CM Virtual Fonts for LaTeX

This small set of files provides Russian/Bulgarian languages support for 
LaTeX users at the base of the Type 1 copies (Cyrillic part by B.Malyshev) 
of classic CM fonts (OT1 part by D.E.Knuth, Cyrillic part by A.Samarin & 
N.Glonti) which present in any TeX distribution. These virtual fonts are 
using LCYW encoding. LCYW is almost subset of T2A (see `lcyw.dtx' for 
details). This encoding can be used via `fontenc' package.  This provides 
support only for OT1, guillemets, numero sign, and Russian alphabets 
symbols. However LCYW option to `fontenc' is not enough to provide copy & 
search features of the pdf viewers because standard `cmap' package lacks 
support for the virtual fonts. The LCYW encoding companion package 
`cmap-cyr-vf' should be used together with `cmap' to provide such support.

This encoding (unlike old LCY encoding) is compatible with all LaTeX 
features.  

It may be distributed and/or modified under the
conditions of the LaTeX Project Public License, either version 1.3c
of this license or (at your option) any later version.
The latest version of this license is in

and version 1.3c or later is part of all distributions of LaTeX 
version 2005/12/01 or later.
