On Wed, 2 Jun 2010 Josef Kleber submitted an update to the
softmaker-freefont
package.
Summary description: Support files for SoftMaker free fonts available at www.freefont.de License type: lppl
Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- In June 2009 www.freefont.de offered a beautiful handwriting font for free download: The Softmaker Stone Handwriting. 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: Artistic, Baskerville-Nova (regular + bold + italic + bold italic), Canossa (regular + bold + light), Congress (regular + bold + italic), Delano-Caps, Flagstaff, Helium (regular + bold), Henderson, Iceberg (regular + bold), Jugendstil, Old Blackletter, Stone Handwriting, Sunset (regular + bold)
License: LPPL (not the fonts themselves)
New in v1.12:
- added support for the font Softmaker Helium (regular + bold + faked slanted + faked small caps) Attention: The font is not included! This font is font of the month (June 2010) and can be downloaded for free (at least this month) at: http://www.freefont.de Later you can buy it from Softmaker
- renamed font families (5xx -> 6xx) to avoid naming conflict with LaTeX support for Softmaker FontSite 500 CD ----------------------------------------------------------------------
