Yet they +may not exactly fit your particular TeX system; please, +consult its documentation, too! + +The directory name "texmf" refers to the root directory of a +TDS directory tree. In case your TeX systems has more than +one TDS tree, its documentation should tell you where to +install additional files. + + + +Installing the Type1 font files in your TeX system +-------------------------------------------------- +The Type1 font files + + ulgb8a.pfb + ulgbi8a.pfb + +are to be copied to the directory + + texmf/fonts/type1/urw/lettrgth + +of your TeX system, and the related .afm files should go +into + + texmf/fonts/afm/urw/lettrgth + +Most likely, you will have to create these directories +first. + +Feel free to use the fonts also with applications other than +TeX! The related PFM files are provided for this purpose; +move them to the same directory as the PFBs. + + + + + +Installing the TeX support files from the archive ulg.zip +--------------------------------------------------------- +Unpack the ZIP archive ulg.zip in the directory "texmf" of +your TeX system; thus, all files will be copied to the +appropriate directories. + + + +Updating the filename database +------------------------------ +Many TeX systems require manual updating of a "filename +database" after adding of new files. Please, consult the +documentation of your TeX system! + + + +Configuring your TeX system +--------------------------- +The required actions depend on the particular TeX system. +Particular sets of instructions are provided below for + + * teTeX 2.0 and later, + * VTeX/Free 8.x and later. + +In case you have a different TeX system, consult its +documentation how to make it use the additional font map +file named "ulg.map". Two copies of this file reside in the +directories texmf/dvips/config/ and texmf/fonts/map/dvips. + +Configuring teTeX: +Use the shell script "updmap" to add the font map file named +"ulg.map" to the configuration. See the documentation of +your particular teTeX version how to use the script. With +teTeX 2.0 and above, execute the following commands: + + texhash + updmap --enable Map ulg.map + +Configuring VTeX/Free: +Make VTeX read the additional font map ("aliasing") file +ulg.ali. This is usually accomplished by putting a record +for this file into each of the configuration files + + texmf/vtex/config/pdf.fm +and + texmf/vtex/config/ps.fm + +"ulg.ali" is to be added to the TYPE1 section of the +above-mentioned files: + + TYPE1 { + ... + ulg.ali + } + + + +Using the URW Letter Gothic fonts with LaTeX +-------------------------------------------- +See the file lettrgth.txt, which resides in the directory +texmf/doc/fonts/urw. + + + +Fontinst sources +---------------- +The archive file ulgfnst.zip contains the Fontinst script +and additional mtx files, that were used to create the font +metrics and virtual fonts for URW Letter Gothic.
