auto1 font package
by CTAN Announcements 30 May '12

30 May '12

the author considers the package obsolete; its results are (he says) far better achieved by regular use of xetex or luatex. i have therefore, at his request, moved the package on ctan from fonts/auto1 to obsolete/fonts/auto1 the change will propagate as usual with ctan mirroring. the catalogue entry http://www.tex.ac.uk/ctan/help/Catalogue/entries/auto1.html will have changed by tomorrow morning (cambridge time).
