+ Literat package v0.2
+ May 20, 1999
+
+This is an experimental version of virtual fonts for PDF(La)TeX or dvips
+which are based on free family of type1 fonts by ParaGraph International,
+named Literaturnaya. The type1 fonts are available at
+
+ ftp://ftp.vsu.ru/pub/tex/literat.zip
+
+The virtual fonts are available at
+
+ ftp://ftp.vsu.ru/pub/tex/literat-*.tar.gz
+
+These fonts are available in T2A, OT1, T1 and TS1 encodings.
+
+we included two map files (tli.map and literat.map). PLEASE USE ONE
+OF THEM, NOT BOTH. :-) tli.map contains references to PFB fonts with
+K.Berry names (so you'll need to rename pfb files; this is done by
+the install-tli.sh script), while literat.map contains references
+to the original filenames of PFB fonts.
+
+The simple installation script as well as examples of usage are included
+into this bundle.
+
+Happy TeXing!
+
+Please mail bug reports, your comments and proposals to:

+
+Changes from version 0.1 of April 15, 1999:
+
+* added virtual fonts for OT1, T1, TS1 encodings (in addition to T2A)
+* added font shapes: now 12 for each of T2A, OT1, T1, and 8 for TS1
+ (against 6 in the previous version)
+* virtual fonts `optimized' because regenerated with current version of
+ fontinst (e.g. removed duplicated kerns)
+* fixed incorrect name for one font
+* renamed raw fonts from `original' names (matching original pfb files)
+ to r<berry-name>.tfm, thus removing underscores in filenames
+ (MikTeX's ps2pk had problems with this?).
+
+TODO:
+* add some more font shapes? underlined, overstroke, and spaced come to
+ mind...
+* add some more faked glyphs
+* write support in literat.sty for new versions of pdftex which do not
+ accept extended fonts in map files (in case of adding faked glyphs
+ which will require such fonts)
+
