What's this? ============ This directory contains a LaTeX2e package for an easy and NFSS2-compliant use of the eiad font family created by Ivan A Derzhanski under LaTeX2e. Obviously Plain-TeX users, etc, cannot use this package, but they should know how to load fonts with the \font-command anyhow... What is NOT provided here? ========================== The fonts themselves are NOT in this directory. You can find them on CTAN in the directory tex-archive/fonts/eiad/, so for example in ftp://ftp.dante.de/tex-archive/fonts/eiad or ftp://ftp.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/fonts/eiad and mirrors of CTAN... So you need the 6 *.mf-files contained in this place. What IS provided here? ====================== There are two additional mf-files: Fbf10.mf Fr10.mf and two files to make the style file and the documentation: eiad.ins eiad.dtx (and this file (README) of course...). What are these files? --------------------- In the documentation of the eiad-fonts there is described how to make two additional mf-files. They are easy to produce, I admit, but this step might prevent someone from using the eiad-fonts. And since I had to make these files for using the fonts myself anyway, I think I should provide them here. So I have done some of your work, made your life easier ;-) and I am using 7kB of CTAN space more... In the 'Installation'-part of this document is described where to put these files... With the files eiad.* you can easily produce the style file and the documentation, as described in the following... Installation ============ It's easy. But I will explain it in full detail... So you got the 6 *mf-files for the eiad-font-family created by Ivan A Derzhanski (see above for finding them, if you haven't), the two *mf-files provided by me, eiad.ins and eiad.dtx. Good. In a TDS-conforming TeX-installation you now have to put the 8 *mf-files in the directory $TEXMF/fonts/source/public/eiad If you have a TeX-installation which doesn't produce *tfm and *pk-files on the fly, you have to produce them by hand. On some TeX-installations (like teTeX, for example) there are some map-files used by MakeTeX* for putting the produced *tfm and *pk-files in the correct subdirectories.. So you should add ----------- @c Gaelic fonts: eiad font family eiad10 public eiad eiadbf10 public eiad ----------- add the end of the file $TEXMF/fontname/special.map. Now run the file eiad.ins through latex: latex eiad.ins You get a file called eiad.sty Copy this in a TDS-conforming installation to $TEXMF/macros/tex/latex/eiad/ or (since this is only one file) to $TEXMF/macros/tex/latex/misc/ If you use a database for finding your files (like ls-R in teTeX) you have to update it now (e.g. run 'texhash' for teTeX). Do this first because we already need eiad.sty for producing the documentation... Now you can produce the documentation: latex eiad.dtx If you want a change history in the docs, now run makeindex -s ... -o eiad.gls eiad.glo where ... means the full path for the file 'gglo.ist'. With teTeX 0.4 you can say makeindex -s `kpsewhich tex gglo.ist` -o eiad.gls eiad Then run the file twice through latex again: latex eiad.dtx latex eiad.dtx The resulting file eiad.dvi you can put in the TDS-conforming directory $TEXMF/doc/latex/eiad or (since this is only one file) in $TEXMF/doc/latex/misc Using the package ================= To use the package you say \usepackage{eiad} in the preamble. The commands of this package are described in the documentation (see the 'Installation'-part for getting the documentation out of eiad.dtx.)
