This is the file `NEWS' that accompanies version 1.5 of `mflogo'.
=================================================================

This file describes the history of the `mflogo' package and lists
important changes in the new release compared to earlier versions.


* NEWS for the release of version 1.5c of `mflogo' (1995/12/04):

Version 1.5c of `mflogo' just fixes a minor incompatibility in the
definitions of the |\MF| and |\MP| logos when used in the LaTeX
tabbing environment.  These changes should be invisible to user.


* NEWS for the release of version 1.5b of `mflogo' (1995/09/01):

The first public release version of the `mflogo' package (version 1.2)
was made available in May 1994, just a few weeks before the release
of the first production version of LaTeX(2e), which introduced a much
improved internal interface for defining font commands.

This version of `mflogo' (version 1.5) now makes use of this internal
interface in the definitions of the font commands |\logofamily| and
|\textlogo| and it also fixes a minor bug concerning the space factor
after the logos.  The increase of the version number from 1.2 to 1.5
just reflects the fact that I've started revising the `mflogo' package
three times, but never managed to complete a new release.

Apart from these minor internal changes that don't actually affect
the functionality of the package, there has been one important change
concerning the font definition file: The decision to allow creating
two different versions of `Ulogo.fd' depending on the range of font
shapes available at your site has been reverted.  In future, there
will be only one standard version of `Ulogo.fd' which does assume
that some non-standard variants of the `logo' fonts are available.

This decision was made in order to avoid compatibility problems
arising from the possibility of creating two different versions
of a file under the same name.  As it is discussed in the document
``Modifying LaTeX'' (see the file |modguide.tex| distributed with
the LaTeX release 1995/06/01), you cannot ensure portability of
documents unless standard files with the same name are guaranteed
to be same everywhere.

An archive file containing all required font files is provided along
with this package for the convenience of installers and in particular
for those who do not yet have the non-standard variants of the `logo'
fonts required for the `mflogo' package.
