cmbright: Computer Modern Bright
|
Family of sans serif metafonts based on Donald Knuth's CM font. It is `lighter' and less obtrusive than CMSS. Together with CM Bright there comes a family of typewriter fonts, `CM Typwewriter Light', which look better in combination with CM Bright than the CMTT fonts would do. The whole package is by Walter Schmidt. A commercial-quality type 1 version of these fonts is available from Micropress. Free versions are available, in the cm-super font bundle (the T1 and TS1 encoded part of the set), and in hfbright (the OT1 encoded part, and the maths fonts). Development spanned 1996-2004.

Devanagari (type 1)

These outline renderings (PostScript Type 1) of Frans Velthuis' Devanagari fonts (originally, dated 1990) for TeX were created by Primoz Peterlin. The original METAFONT sources were automatically converted to PFB using Peter Szabo's TeXtrace, and subsequently edited using George Williams' PfaEdit PostScript font editor by Anshuman Pandey (University of Washington). In 2003-2004, additional updates in the set of 22 Metafont files are due to Kevin Carmody (email: i@kevincarmody.com), who presently maintains the package. The font names: TeX-dvng10, TeX-dvng9, TeX-dvng8. These were later changed to VelthuisDevanagari8-Regular, VelthuisDevanagari9-Regular and VelthuisDevanagari10-Regular.

Professor of computer science at Stanford University, who by himself changed the world of mathematical and scientific typesetting when he developed TeX in the 1980s. That system needed fonts, so he developed a program called Metafont that permits a simple software description of a glyph. And with Metafont, and the help of Hermann Zapf, he created the Computer Modern type family. This is a tour de force, because each letter in the 72 original fonts has only one descriptive program that contains several parameters. Different parameter settings yield the typefaces, from italic to roman and bold, from 5pt to 10pt and 17pt optical settings, and from sans to serif and typewriter. Since a few years ago, he is Professor Emeritus of The Art of Computer Programming at Stanford University. Bitstream write-up. Author in 1998 of Digital Typography (CSLI Publications). His METAFONT book is free.

Jörg Knappen writes: there are now the stable ec fonts Version 1.0 available from the CTAN archives in directory tex-archive/fonts/jknappen/ec. The ec fonts support the complete LaTeX T1 encoding, as defined at the 1990 TUG conference hold at Cork/Ireland. They are intended to be as stable as the cm fonts are, i.e., there shall be no more changes to the tfm files. The ec fonts also contain a Text Companion Symbol font, called tc, featuring many usefull characters needed in typesetting, for example oldstyle digits, currency symbols (including the newly created Euro symbol), the permille sign, copyright, trade mark and servicemark as well as a copyleft sign, and many others. The upcoming release of LaTeX2e will support the ec fonts. The dc fonts, which were termed as preliminary versions, will dissappear from the archives soon. It is suggested, that you replace them entirely by the ec fonts. Let me thank to all the people who have contributed to the success of the ec font project. They are too numerous to mention all of them, but some of them should have a place here: Donald E. Knuth and Richard Southall for designing and coding the cm fonts, which are the base of the ec fonts; Barbara Beeton, Michael Ferguson, and Jan-Michael Rynning for pushing the project into existence; Norbert Schwarz for the first two releases of the dc fonts; Yannis Haralambous for numerous contributions to the METAFONT code; Boguslaw Jackowsky and Marek Rycko for designing and programming the Polish letters; Andreas Schwab for finding and fixing some very bad bugs; Daniel Taupin and Denis Roegel for fine-tuning of the accented letters needed in french. The remaining errors and bugs in the distribution are all mine, no one of the persons credited above and the other unnamed contributors should be blamed for them.

In 2002, Harald Harders used mftrace to turn Walter Schmidt's cmbright from Metafont into PostScript. The font names and the file names begin with 'hf' for 'harders font'. This has been done for not getting mixed up with the commercial cmbright fonts by MicroPress. "hfbright" are the type 1 versions of the OT1-encoded and maths parts of the Computer Modern Bright fonts. The list: HFBR10, HFBR17, HFBR8, HFBR9, HFBRAS10, HFBRAS8, HFBRAS9, HFBRBS10, HFBRBS8, HFBRBS9, HFBRBX10, HFBRMB10, HFBRMI10, HFBRMI8, HFBRMI9, HFBRSL10, HFBRSL17, HFBRSL8, HFBRSL9, HFBRSY10, HFBRSY8, HFBRSY9, HFSLTL10, HFTL10.

Scott Pakin's free program for converting metafont files to type 1 fonts. From the author: mf2pt1 facilitates producing PostScript Type 1 fonts from a Metafont source file. It is not, as the name may imply, an automatic converter of arbitrary Metafont fonts to Type 1 format. mf2pt1 imposes a number of restrictions on the Metafont input. If these restrictions are met, mf2pt1 will produce valid Type 1 output. (Actually, it produces "disassembled" Type 1; the t1asm program from the t1utils suite will convert this to a true Type 1 font.)

A free program with macros to help draw metafont figures. Its history: MFpic was initiated by Tom Leathrum in 1992. At some point in version 0.2.x most of the development passed to Geoffrey Tobin. In 1996, when the (unreleased) version was at 0.2.14, Dan Luecking began trying to transform mfpic's Metafont code into MetaPost code, and then folding MetaPost support into mfpic.tex. With Geoffrey Tobin's help, and that of a small group of mfpic aficionados on the Net, Luecking published mfpic v. 0.5. Dan Luecking is at the Department of Mathematical Sciences, University of Arkansas.

Several tens of complete fonts are already finished, in all possible font formats (truetype, type 1, metafont). "Mojikyo is the newest kind of software for Chinese Character word-processing. More than 80,000 character fonts have been built in Mojikyo. So, everyone in the world can use any font of Mojikyo, free of charge. Moreover, if you want to use Chinese Character which cannot be found in Mojikyo Internet fonts, you can ask us to make new character provided that you inform us the source(s) of the character. We make them, and put them on our Home Page free of charge for public use." Truetype fonts for Chinese and Japanese characters: The Mojikyo fonts are Japanese Shift-JIS-encoded fonts for the 48,902 Chinese characters in the Morohashi dictionary, along with tens of thousands of additional characters. Each character is assigned a six-digit Mojikyo number. The Morohashi characters are contained in fonts M101-109. Fonts M110 and above contain characters not in Morohashi. These include, for example, oracle-bone characters [M117-118], Siddham [M119-121], and Tangut [M202-203]. Mojikyo Windows truetype fonts. TEX-specific download page.

Astronomer and physicist at the University of Glasgow. Designer in 1991-2001 of the font Feyn (metafont), which can be used to produce relatively simple Feynman diagrams within equations in a LaTeX document. He writes: The other Feynman diagram package which exists is Thorsten Ohl's `feynmf/feynmp' package. That works by creating Metafont or MetaPost figures using a preprocessor. It's more general than this package, but is at its best when creating relatively large diagrams, for figures. In contrast, the present system consists of a carefully-designed font with which you can write simple diagrams, within equations or within text, in a size matching the surrounding text size.

"pbm2pfnt is a program that converts a group of PBM (portable bitmap) images to a font file suitable for use with PilRC. This allows developers to create custom fonts for use within their Palm device applications. Included with pbm2pfnt is a utility script called mkpfnt which creates fonts using the MetaFont font compiler and extracts selected bitmaps from those fonts. Together with pbm2pfnt, mkpfnt allow you to use MetaFont to create fonts for use with your Palm device."

Washington Tamil font in metafont format, created by Hal Schiffman, Vasu Renganathan and Thomas Ridgeway (University of Washington) in 1990. Hal Schiffman writes: I worked together with Tom Ridgeway to design this font, at my instigation, since I needed it for my dictionary, and he knew METAFONT. (He did not know Tamil, although he did know Hindi.) We spent many Friday mornings designing the glyphs. He would write the code and run the program, and I would then critique it, and then we would run it again until we had an acceptable glyph. But I realize he thought of himself as the sole developer, which is why he registered it in his name. Afterwards we tweaked some of the glyphs, and Vasu Renganathan worked on later versions, too, so the authors of this font should be listed as myself, Ridgeway, and Vasu Renganathan.
