This file contains brief descriptions of the items in this directory. For general help and ftp extension information, see the 00welcome message anf the FAQ list. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % Anything with metrics in the name % %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Metrics files are what TeX uses to deal with fonts. They contain dimensional and kerning and ligature information for typesetting. To use a font with TeX (and so with Textures) you must have a metrics file for that font in the TeX fonts folder of your Textures installation. Some font metrics are already built into Textures. You may use EdMetrics to create a metrics file, or if you see it here you mey simply download it, put it in your TeX fonts folder, and use it. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % Screen fonts % %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% The screen fonts in this directory may be used as replacements for older versions or corrections to older versions. If you need to use them, download them to your computer and place them in your System folder wherever fonts go on your system. (see the FAQ (in the Information directory), your Apple documentation, or the Textures user guide for this information.) Screen fonts are bitmap fonts which we use mostly as "handles" to the postscript fonts. They are not substitutes for the postscript fonts. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % LucidaBright.sea.hqx % %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% These are the correct screen fonts and metrics for using the Lucida fonts with TeX. (As far as I know, BTS 12/19) There are other metrics and screen fonts for using Lucida fonts with other programs. Write to help@bluesky.com if you need these or if you need other help. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % lucida.comb.scr+metrics.sea.hqx % %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% This is the set of screen fonts and metrics you should have to use the Lucida Bright+NewMath+Expert set. It contains: LucidaBright Mac Metrics, LucidaExpert Math Metric, LucidaBright Expert Mac Metrics, LucidaBright Screen, LucidaBrightExpert Screen, LucidaExpertMath TeX Screen. If you have suitcases called: Lucida NewMath TeX Screen, Lucida NewMath Ord Screen, or LucidaNewMath TeX Metrics you should get rid of them. They are superceded by these new suitcases. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % What happened to the lw35nfss metrics? % %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% They are now called lw35-metrics.cpt.hqx, and may be found on CTAN in /fonts/psfonts/textures/. Here's a specific URL to the CD-ROM CTAN site: ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/pub/tex/ctan/fonts/psfonts/textures/ Questions?
