+ | THE COMICSANS PACKAGE |
+ | By Scott Pakin, scott+csan@pakin.org |
+ +--------------------------------------+
+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+The comicsans package makes Microsoft's Comic Sans font available to
+LaTeX2e. comicsans supports all of the following:
+
+ * Roman text, boldface text, small-caps text, and -- with a little
+ extra effort -- italic text
+
+ * Cyrillic (roman text, boldface text, italic text)
+
+ * Mathematics using Comic Sans wherever possible
+
+
+Installation
+============
+
+Complete installation instructions appear in the comicsans
+documentation, comicsans.pdf (formatted for U.S. Letter paper). A
+brief summary follows:
+
+ * Acquire and install the Comic Sans font.
+
+ * Merge comicsans's texmf directory tree (available from CTAN as
+ install/macros/latex/contrib/comicsans.tds.zip) with your local
+ TeX directory tree.
+
+ * Point your favorite TeX backend(s) (pdfTeX, Dvips, YAP, Xdvi,
+ etc.) to the comicsans font-mapping file.
+
+ * Refresh the TeX filename database.
+
