This file belongs to the TeX Gyre collection of fonts. The work is released under the GUST Font License. See the MANIFEST-TeX-Gyre-Bonum.txt and README-TeX-Gyre-Bonum.txt files for the details. For the most recent version of this license see http://www.gust.org.pl/fonts/licenses/GUST-FONT-LICENSE.txt or http://tug.org/fonts/licenses/GUST-FONT-LICENSE.txt Ver 2.003: 16.09.2009 * this is the first official release of the TeX Gyre Bonum fonts since June 22, 2009, when URW++, represented by Dr. Peter Rosenfeld, its Managing Director, kindly agreed to release the original 35 base PostScript fonts as shipped with Ghostscript ver. 4.00 under the LPPL (LaTeX Project Public License). This should be understood so that the 35 base Postscript fonts may be used and developed either under the LPPL or one of the GPL (GNU Public Licence) or AFPL (Aladdin Free Public Licence). The latter were put in force with the initial release of the base fonts with Ghostscript ver. 4.00 in 1996. Hereby we thank Dr. Rosenfeld. The TeX Gyre fonts are being develped from the Ghostscript ver. 4.00 base. For reasons explained elsewhere, we prefer to provide our work under the GUST Font Licence (GFL) which is legally equivallent to the LPPL. However, since 1996 the 35 PostScript base fonts were enhanced under the GNU Public License with Vietnamese glyphs by Han The Thanh and Cyrillic glyphs by Valek Filippov. Han The Thanh kindly permitted his additions to be retained under under GFL/LPPL in this and future TeX Gyre fonts releases. Unfortunately, we were unable to receive a similar permission from Valek Filippov for his Cyrillic glyphs, thus there are no Cyrillic glyphs in any of the TeX Gyre fonts. * with the removal of the Cyrillic glyphs all t2a-*.tfm, t2b-*.tfm t2c-*.tfm files and the relevant LaTeX *.fd files were also removed. * typos in ligature schemes in `comm_mph.mp' corrected (`quotedblbase' and `quotedblleft' instead `quotedblright') * spaceskip make consistent with the width of space -- qbkb, qbkbi: 0.34em plus 0.17em minus 0.113em, qbkr: 0.32em plus 0.16em minus 0.107em, qbkri: 0.3em plus 0.15em minus 0.1em; thanks to Jarmo Niemel\"a for pointing out the problem; previous spacing (0.333em plus 0.167em minus 0.111em) can be restored: (a) in plain -- by setting \spaceskip=0.333em plus 0.167em minus 0.111em (b) in LaTeX -- by using option `oldspacing' (see below) * OTF structure corrected and improved (in particular, the ligature ffi works now properly) * `visiblespace' renamed to `uni2423' (suggestion of Werner Lemberg and Karl Berry) -- hopefully everywhere... * `Dblgravecomb' renamed to `dblGravecomb' * `nomero' in MT1 sources renamed to `numero', shape altered, name `afii61352' no more used * undertie added (suggestion of Werner Lemberg) U+203F -- undertie (smile-shaped glyph placed below baseline) U+2040 -- tie (frown-shaped glyph placed at the top line) U+2054 -- undertieinverted (frown-shaped glyph placed below baseline) nota bene, there is no code point in the Unicode table for the inverted tie... * glyphs `acaron', `Acaron', `icaron', `Icaron', `idieresisacute', `Idieresisacute', `jcaron', `J_caron', `ocaron', `Ocaron', `ucaron', `Ucaron', `udieresisacute', `Udieresisacute', `udieresiscaron', `Udieresiscaron', `udieresisgrave', and `Udieresisgrave' added (proposal of Oliver Corff) -- all the glyphs but `J_caron' have code points in the Unicode table and names assigned in the Adobe Glyph List (incidentaly, in J_caron apostrophe is used alike in lcaron and tcaron -- cf. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J-caron), small caps were assigned code points in Private Unicode Area * glyps orogate and Orogate (`rogate' in Polish means `with horns') added -- they are used to denote nasal vowels in ancient Polish texts (ca. XIV century) * uni2010 (hyphen duplicate) i uni2011 (non-breakable hyphen duplicate) added (suggestion of Hans Hagen) * LaTeX *.sty and *.fd files reworked: -- option `oldspacing' provided because of the change of default spacing (see above), -- files l7x*.fd (Lithuanian) refer to `L7x', as they should, -- scheme of referring to slanted variants improved, -- option `scaled=' added which allows to rescale font at loading, -- in TeX Gyre LaTeX packages, text bold is defined as \renewcommand\bfdefault{b} (`b' instead of `bx') -- options `matchlowercase'/`matchuppercase' added which scale the font such that its `x_height'/`cap_height' matches the respective dimension of the main font of the document; one can say also, e.g., `matchlowercase=1.1' if scaling to 110% of the `x_height' of the main font of the document is needed; sample usage: \documentclass{article} \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} \usepackage[matchlowercase]{tgtermes,tgadventor,tgheros} \begin{document} We put TG Termes (main) with \textsf{TG Heros} and {\fontfamily{qag}\selectfont TG Adventor}. \textsf{As~a~result}, all small letters have the same heights. \end{document} (note that now TeX Gyre LaTeX styles require the `kvoptions' module which, in turn, necessitates using etex) very many thanks to Marcin Woli\'nski REMARKS: * we are not going to introduce any extensions that would result in yet more TFMs files (e.g., for more convenient handling of oldstyle/normal digits) -- in such cases we suggest using the OTF fonts versions * improving hints is a kind of Sisyphean job -- there are no tools for automatic hinting checking; the only method is to check optically/manually each and every character with various display agents, on various screens under various operating systems and various resolutions. We are not totally opposing Sisyphean jobs in general, but having had that much time as we had, we decided to spend it on other improvements... Ver. 1.103: 22.02.2008 * math glyphs shifted horizontally (widths left intact) * kerns between half rings and `A' (also `a.sc') added * in the OTF files, the features `salt', `ss01', `ss02', `ss03', `ss04' added Ver. 1.102: 19.02.2008 -- inofficial release * compatibility with the recent Latin Modern release (1.106) implemented, see -- http://www.gust.org.pl/projects/e-foundry/latin-modern/ main changes: the repertoire of glyphs extended by Arabic transliteration glyphs, OTF structure modified (`size' feature implemented, the ligatures `i_j' and `I_J' available only for Dutch, the ligature `f_k' -- for Polish, the `locl' feature reimplemented -- an artificial glyph `i.TRK' is no longer needed) * glyphs uni03C6 and uni03D5 used to be interchanged in all TeX Gyre fonts; the unicode specification is not explicit too much: 03C6;GREEK SMALL LETTER PHI 03D5;GREEK PHI SYMBOL but FileFormat.Info is: http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/03c6/index.htm http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/03d5/index.htm (spotted by Michael Zedler, thanks) Ver. 1.099: 30.01.2008 -- unpublished * widths of nearly all glyphs made consistent with the Adobe metric data (for the glyphs from the Adobe Standard Encoding): ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/type/win/all/afmfiles/base35/bkd_____.afm ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/type/win/all/afmfiles/base35/bkdi____.afm ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/type/win/all/afmfiles/base35/bkl_____.afm ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/type/win/all/afmfiles/base35/bkli____.afm ans exception is (in qbkri) the glyph `braceright' (Adobe: 380; TeX Gyre: 360, as `braceleft') * shape of `Delta' in qbkb altered (outer triangle replaced by a polygon) * `copyright.alt' added Ver. 1.010, 30.03.2007: * The basic Greek alphabet improved with the relevant glyphs from the Kerkis distribution (http://iris.math.aegean.gr/kerkis/), courtesy of the authors, Apostolos Syropoulos and Antonis Tsolomitis 22.01.2007: no version change * Lithuanian *.fd file corrected (reported by Sigitas Tolusis): L7X -> L7x Ver. 1.001, 14.01.2007: * LM-compatible corrections: `[Ll]dotaccent' renamed to `[Ll]dot' (in both PS and OTF), [SsTt]commaaccent renamed to uni0218, uni0219, uni021A, and uni021B, respectively (in OTF only), `[gklnr]commaaccent' duplicated to `[gklnr]cedilla', combining accents supplemented (`commaaccentcomb', `Breveinvertedcomb'), AFDKO's Glyph Order and Alias DB file (GOADB) modified (now both Latin Modern and TeX Gyre engines fonts share the same GOADB) * OTF feature locl fixed Ver. 1.000: 18.12.2006
