CTAN update: FPL Fonts
Minor change in the internal font structure: Refrain from using 'div' for compatibility reasons.
Thanks for the update. For the CTAN Team Rainer Schöpf
fpl – SC and OsF fonts for URW Palladio L
The FPL Fonts provide a set of SC/OsF fonts for URW Palladio L which are
compatible with respect to metrics with the Palatino SC/OsF fonts from
Adobe. Note that it is not my aim to exactly reproduce the outlines of
the original Adobe fonts. The SC and OsF in the FPL Fonts were designed
with the glyphs from URW Palladio L as starting point. For some glyphs
(e.g. o
) I got the best result by scaling and
boldening. For others (e.g. h
) shifting selected
portions of the character gave more satisfying results. All this
was done using the free
font editor FontForge. The
kerning data in these fonts comes from Walter Schmidt’s improved
Palatino metrics.
LaTeX use is enabled by the mathpazo package, which is part of the psnfss distribution.
