It was initially colled College Oldstyle and based on Le +Moreau de Jeune from G. Peignot foundry. Its realtion to the +classical Caslon font family is rather distant. Nevertheless it is a +nice titling and display font. + +Adobe sells OTF version of this font, but other versions, including +Type 1 are still available from other vendors, including +http://www.fonts.com. Note that there are many ``free'' variants of +this font available for downloading on various sites; I chose not to +use them because of unclear license status. + +While modern engines like XeTeX and LuaTeX can use system fonts +directly, the installation base of the other systems is huge, so it +might be worthwile to release support files. + +The name pcarl follows the standard Fontname scheme for Adobe Caslon +Open Face. + +This package was commssioned by Annals of Mathematics, +http://annals.princeton.edu/. + + +Changes: + + Version 1.0a + Documentation cleanup |
