Idzkowski i S-ka. This sans serif > typeface has a highly modulated stroke so it has high typographic > contrast. The vertical stems are much heavier then horizontal ones. > Most characters have thin rectangles as additional counters giving the > unique shape of the characters. > > The font was generated using the Metatype1 package. Then the original > set of characters was completed by adding the full set of accented > letters and characters of the modern Latin alphabets (including > Vietnamese). > > The fonts are distributed in the Type1 and OpenType formats along with the > files necessary for use these fonts in TeX and LaTeX including > encoding definition files: T1 (ec), T5 (Vietnamese), OT4, QX, texnansi > and nonstandard ones (IL2 for Czech fonts). > > In the ver. 0.91 metric .tfm files were corrected and also .fd files for > LaTeX.

CTAN Update: new version of Wadalab fonts
by CTAN Announcements 24 May '08

24 May '08

On Thu, 22 May 2008 at 12:16 +0200, Werner LEMBERG submitted an update to the wadalab package. These are font bundles for the Japanese Wadalab fonts which work with the CJK package. All subfonts now have glyph names compliant to the Adobe Glyph List, making ToUnicode CMaps in PDF documents (created automatically by dvipdfmx) work correctly. All font bundles now contain virtual Unicode subfonts. Location on CTAN: /fonts/wadalab License: unknown Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This version incorporates the hwkatakana bundle of Gernot Hassenpflug (which now becomes obsolete). The main reason for this merge was that some files of Gernot's package replace files from the Wadalab fonts, causing nasty dependency issues. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/fonts/wadalab . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/info/?id=wadalab (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
