lm fonts

package.

Package: Latin Modern fonts Authors: JNSteam License: GUST Font Source License Location on CTAN: fonts/lm

The Latin Modern family of fonts is based on the Computer Modern fonts in the PostScript Type 1 format, released into public domain by the American Mathematical Society. The fonts, as compared to the CM family, contain a lot of additional characters, mainly accented ones, but not only. The current distribution contains: Latin Modern fonts in the PostScript Type 1 and OpenType formats, source files for MetaType1 plus all requisites for using the fonts with TeX/pdfTeX; there is one set of PostScript fonts and five sets of TeX Font Metric files, corresponding to: -- EC (Cork) encoding (ec-*.tfm), -- QX encoding (qx-*.tfm), -- TeX'n'ANSI aka LY1 encoding (texnansi-*.tfm), -- T5 (Vietnamese) encoding (t5-*.tfm), -- Text Companion for EC fonts aka TS1 (ts1-*.tfm). LaTeX *.sty and *.fd files were also added plus a few test files.

Most important recent changes: We fixed some annoying bugs (e.g., improper positioning of some accents in our lovely ;-) lmtlc10 and discrepancies between widths of oldstyle and normal digits in several fonts) and added a ``dense'' or Euro Letter encoding on Hans' demand.

Thanks for the upload.
