As handwriting fonts are a quite limited resource in the LaTeX world, i decided to create support files for this beautiful font. Therefore, Stone Handwriting will be the starting point for the softmaker-freefont bundle. Other fonts will be included in future. Supported fonts at the moment: Congress (regular + bold + italic), Delano-Caps, Flagstaff, Henderson, Iceberg (regular + bold), Stone Handwriting License: LPPL (not the fonts themselves) New in v1.5: - added LaTeX support for the very nice font family Congress Attention: The font is not included! This font is font of the month (November 2009) and can be downloaded for free (at least this month) at: http://www.freefont.de Later you can buy it from Softmaker ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/fonts/softmaker-freefont/ .
