The package contains the Antykwa Poltawskiego family of fonts in the PostScript Type 1 and OpenType formats. The original font was designed in the twenties of the XX century by the Polish typographer Adam Poltawski(1881-1952). Following the route set out by the Latin Modern and TeX Gyre projects (http://www.gust.org.pl/projects/e-foundry), the Antykwa Poltawskiego digitisation project aims at providing a rich collection of diacritical characters in the attempt to cover as many Latin-based scripts as possible. To our knowledge, the repertoire of characters covers all European languages as well as some other Latin-based alphabets such as Vietnamese and Navajo; at the request of users, recent extensions (following the enhancement of the Latin Modern collection) provide glyphs sufficient for typesetting of romanized transliterations of Arabic and Sanskrit scripts. The Antykwa Poltawskiego family consists of 4 weights (light, normal, medium, bold), each having upright and italic forms and one of 5 design sizes: 6, 8, 10, 12 and 17pt. Altogether, the collection comprises 40 font files, containing the same repertoire of 1126 characters. The preliminary version of Antykwa Poltawskiego (antp package) released in 2000 is rendered obsolete by this package.

Palatino-like fonts in support of mathematics
Pxfonts supplies virtual text roman fonts using Adobe Palatino (or URWPalladioL) with some modified and additional text symbols in the OT1, T1, and TS1 encodings; maths alphabets using Palatino/Palladio; maths fonts providing all the symbols of the Computer Modern and AMS fonts, including all the Greek capital letters from CMR; and additional maths fonts of various other symbols. The set is complemented by a sans-serif set of text fonts, based on Helvetica/NimbusSanL, and a monospace set derived from the parallel TX font set. All the fonts are in Type 1 format (AFM and PFB files), and are supported by TeX metrics (VF and TFM files) and macros for use with LaTeX.
These fonts were created in Metafont by Knuth, for his own publications. At some stage, the letters 'P' and 'S' were added, so that the MetaPost logo could also be expressed. The fonts were originally issued (of course) as Metafont source; they have since been autotraced and reissued in Adobe Type 1 format by Taco Hoekwater.
Times-like fonts in support of mathematics
Txfonts supplies virtual text roman fonts using Adobe Times (or URW NimbusRomNo9L) with some modified and additional text symbols in the OT1, T1, and TS1 encodings; maths alphabets using Times/URW Nimbus; maths fonts providing all the symbols of the Computer Modern and AMS fonts, including all the Greek capital letters from CMR; and additional maths fonts of various other symbols. The set is complemented by a sans-serif set of text fonts, based on Helvetica/NimbusSanL, and a monospace set. All the fonts are in Type 1 format (AFM and PFB files), and are supported by TeX metrics (VF and TFM files) and macros for use with LaTeX.
A font to typeset maths in Xe(La)TeX and Lua(La)TeX
The Asana-Math font is an OpenType font that includes almost all mathematical Unicode symbols and it can be used to typeset mathematical text with any software that can understand the MATH OpenType table (e.g., XeTeX 0.997 and Microsoft Word 2007). The font is beta software. Typesetting support for use with LaTeX is provided by the fontspec and unicode-math packages.
TeX Fonts extending freely available URW fonts
The TeX-GYRE bundle consists of six font families: TeX Gyre Adventor is based on the URW Gothic L family of fonts (which is derived from ITC Avant Garde Gothic, designed by Herb Lubalin and Tom Carnase). TeX Gyre Bonum is based on the URW Bookman L family (from Bookman Old Style, designed by Alexander Phemister). TeX Gyre Chorus is based on URW Chancery L Medium Italic (from ITC Zapf Chancery, designed by Hermann Zapf in 1979). TeX-Gyre Cursor is based on URW Nimbus Mono L (based on Courier, designed by Howard G. Kettler in 1955, for IBM). TeX Gyre Heros is based on URW Nimbus Sans L (from Helvetica, prepared by Max Miedinger, with Eduard Hoffmann in 1957). TeX Gyre Pagella is based on URW Palladio L (from Palatino, designed by Hermann Zapf in the 1940s). TeX Gyre Schola is based on the URW Century Schoolbook L family (which was designed by Morris Fuller Benton for the American Type Founders). TeX Gyre Termes is based on the URW Nimbus Roman No9 L family of fonts (whose original, Times, was designed by Stanley Morison together with Starling Burgess and Victor Lardent and first offered by Monotype). The constituent standard faces of each family have been greatly extended, and contain nearly 1100 glyphs each (though Chorus omits Greek support, has no small-caps family and has approximately 800 glyphs). Each family is available in Adobe Type 1 and Open Type formats, and LaTeX support (for use with a variety of encodings) is provided. Vietnamese characters were added by Han The Thanh.
This is the TeX Live scheme for installing ConTeXt.
Martin Vogel's Symbol font (marvosym) contains the Euro currency symbol as defined by the European commission, along with symbols for structural engineering; symbols for steel cross-sections; astronomy signs (sun, moon, planets); the 12 signs of the zodiac; scissor symbols; CE sign and others. The package contains both the original TrueType font and the derived Type 1 font, together with support files for TeX (LaTeX).
Gentium fonts (in two formats) and support files
Gentium is a typeface family designed to enable the diverse ethnic groups around the world who use the Latin, Cyrillic and Greek scripts to produce readable, high-quality publications. It supports a wide range of Latin- and Cyrillic-based alphabets. The package consists of: The original (unaltered) GentiumPlus, GentiumBook, and other Gentium-family fonts in TrueType format, as developed by SIL and released under the OFL (see OFL.txt and OFL-FAQ.txt); Converted fonts in PostScript Type 1 format, released under the same terms. These incorporate the name "Gentium" by permission of SIL given to the TeX Users Group; ConTeXt, LaTeX and other supporting files; TeX-related documentation, and the SIL documentation and other files.
A Scientific Times-like font with support for mathematical typesetting
XITS is a Times-like font for scientific typesetting with proper mathematical support for modern, Unicode and OpenType capable TeX engines, namely LuaTeX and XeTeX. For use with LuaLaTeX or XeLaTeX, support is available from the fontspec and unicode-math packages.
The Y&Y 'texnansi' (TeX and ANSI, for Microsoft interpretations of ANSI standards) encoding lives on, even after the decease of the company; it is known in the LaTeX scheme of things as LY1 encoding. This bundle includes metrics and LaTeX macros to use the basic three (Times, Helvetica and Courier) Adobe Type 1 fonts in LaTeX using LY1 encoding.
The well-known Euler fonts are suitable for typsetting mathematics in conjunction with a variety of text fonts which do not provide mathematical character sets of their own. Euler- VM is a set of virtual mathematics fonts based on Euler and CM. This approach has several advantages over immediately using the real Euler fonts: Most noticeably, less TeX resources are consumed, the quality of various math symbols is improved and a usable \hslash symbol can be provided. The virtual fonts are accompanied by a LaTeX package which makes them easy to use, particularly in conjunction with Type1 PostScript text fonts. They are compatible with amsmath. A package option allows the fonts to be loaded at 95% of their nominal size, thus blending better with certain text fonts, e.g., Minion.
These are the wasy (Waldi symbol) fonts, second release. This bundle presents the fonts in Metafont format, but they are also available in Adobe Type 1 format. Support under LaTeX is provided by the wasysym package.
The TeX Live software distribution offers a complete TeX system for a variety of Unix, Macintosh, Windows and other platforms. It encompasses programs for editing, typesetting, previewing and printing of TeX documents in many different languages, and a large collection of TeX macros and font libraries. The distribution includes extensive general documentation about TeX, as well as the documentation for the included software packages.
