shortdesc SC and OsF fonts for URW Palladio L
longdesc The FPL Fonts provide a set of SC/OsF fonts for URW Palladio L
longdesc which are compatible with respect to metrics with the Palatino
longdesc SC/OsF fonts from Adobe. Note that it is not my aim to exactly
longdesc reproduce the outlines of the original Adobe fonts. The SC and OsF
longdesc in the FPL Fonts were designed with the glyphs from URW Palladio L
longdesc as starting point. For some glyphs (eg 'o') I got the best result
longdesc by scaling and boldening. For others (eg 'h') shifting selected
longdesc portions of the character gave more satisfying results. All this
longdesc was done using the free font editor FontForge
longdesc (http://fontforge.sf.net). The kerning data in these fonts comes
longdesc from Walter Schmidt's improved Palatino metrics. [description
