Created by George Ryan, Web-O-Mints contains a + rich assortment of typographic decorations inspired by + historical sources. + + The Web-O-Mints font is available in TrueType or PostScript + format, for use on PCs or Macs. Web-O-Mints can be downloaded + and used immediately in all environments. We hope you enjoy + using this original collection of images. + +This collection includes all the files needed to use this font in +LaTeX and three small LaTeX examples. + + Installation instructions + ========================= + +N.B.: I assume a more-or-less standard TeX file tree; the root of tree + may be "texmf", as in the following example, or "temf.local", as + in my own setup; and is located under the "share" directory of + my teTeX installation ($TETEXDIR/share). YOUR SETUP MAY BE + DIFFERENT. If you have a teTeX-like installation, you may need + to rebuild the file database, running (as root) "texhash"; for + different distributions, consult their documentation. + +1) Copy WebOMintsGD.tfm to the directory texmf/fonts/tfm/public/misc +2) Copy WebOMintsGD.pfb to the directory texmf/fonts/type1/public/misc +3) Copy uwebo.fd to the directory texmf/tex/latex/misc +4) If you are using dvips or pdfTeX, copy webo.map and config.webo to + the directory texmf/dvips/config. Add the contents of webo.map + permanently to the font map or call dvips with the option -Pwebo . +5) If you are using VTeX/Free, copy webo.ali to the directory + texmf/vtex/config; add an entry for webo.ali to the Type1 section + of the configuration files pdf.fm and ps.fm, + +In order to typeset the examples on Unix, you can simply use the +included Makefile: just type "make samples". Otherwise run the files +manually through LaTeX. They require the fancyhdr package; in +addition, the Makefile calls dvips with the option -Pcmz, so the +configuration file config.cmz should be available on your system. + +The supplied .fd file declares a font family named "webo" with the +encoding being "U" for the Web-O-Mints font. Take a look at the +source code of the examples to see how it can be used. + + Enjoy! + +********* news ********* news *********** news ******** news ********* + +Important changes have been introduced with the current release of this +package; these changes were performed by the same Walter Schmidt who +first named in comp.text.tex these fonts. + +The files webo8r.tfm, webo8t.tfm and webo8t.vf were replaced with one +single file WebOMintsGD.tfm, since the Web-O-Mints font is no longer +reencoded. The font map file webo.map has changed accordingly. + +Within LaTeX, the font family "webo" is now declared with the encoding +"U" instead of "T1". Thus, the new font definition file uwebo.fd +replaces the former t1webo.fd. + +In case you have installed a previous release, please update your TeX +system accordingly. + +-- +Maurizio Loreti http://www.pd.infn.it/~loreti/mlo.html +Univ. of Padova, Dept. of Physics - Padova, Italy loreti@pd.infn.it |
