Using Bitstream Dutch 809 (=Concorde) with LaTeX ====================================================================== 2005-02-04 Michael Gaehrken mgaehrken@gmx.de This archive contains all required files for using Bitstream Dutch 809, a clone of Concorde, with LaTeX, with the exception of the font itself, which is _not_ included. The font can be bought from Bitstream, and is included in some versions of CoralDraw. -------------------------- Installation -------------------------- This describtion assumes a TDS-compliant TeX system! 1) Unpack the archive. The archive contains all files in their correct position in a virtual texmf-tree, therefore you only need to move the files to their corresponding location in your local texmf-tree. Some of the directories might have to be created first. 2) Install the PFB-files. At first, you have to rename your fonts according to the following table. Depending on the source of your fonts, they may have different names. Bitstream: Corel: TeX: 1061A___.PFB dut809n.pfb -> bocr8a.pfb (Roman) 1062A___.PFB dut809i.pfb -> bocri8a.pfb (RomanItalic) 1063A___.PFB dut809b.pfb -> bocb8a.pfb (Bold) The resulting three PFB-files have to be moved to texmf/fonts/type1/bitstrea/concor (probably you have to create the directory first) in your local texmf-tree. 3) Update your filename database. If your tex system maintains a filename database, you might have to update manually now. Please consult the documentation of your tex system. 4) Enable the map file. Please consult the documentation of your tex system, how to enable the additional font map "boc.map", which is located in texmf/dvips/config/ and texmf/fonts/map/dvips. Under teTeX 2.0 and later, run the following commands: texhash updmap --enable Map boc.map For other distributions, please consult your documentation! ------------------- Using the fonts with LaTeX ------------------- The supplied package "bconcor.sty" selects Bitstream Dutch 809 as the default serif font. The package supports the following option: scaled=: Loads the font scaled by . scaled: Without a specified scale, a default scale of 0.92 is assumed. Most of the code used in this package is adapted from packages by Walter Schmidt. Using the font without scaling is also possible by simply using the command \renewcommand{\rmdefault}{boc} ----------------------- Shapes and Series ------------------------ boc: n (roman): n (normal), it (italic) b (bold): n (normal) Bitstream does not provide a bolditalic font, so no bolditalic shape is available. All fonts are available only T1 and TS1 encoded, so you should include the following commands in you preamble: \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} \usepackage{textcomp} Neither OT1 nor LY1 are supported at the moment. ---------------------------- History ----------------------------- 2005-02-04 slight changes to kerning tables 2005-02-03 inital release ---------------------------- Legal ----------------------------- This bundle "bconcor.tgz" and the included files are Copyright (c) 2005 Michael Gaehrken Distribution of single files prohibited. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Michael Gaehrken mgaehrken@gmx.de
