README
This is the README for the gillius package, version 2022-10-30. This package provides LaTeX, pdfLaTeX, XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX support for the Gillius and Gillius No. 2 families of sans serif fonts and condensed versions of them, designed by Hirwen Harendal. According to the designer, the fonts were inspired by Gill Sans. To install this package on a TDS-compliant TeX system unzip the file tex-archive/install/fonts/gillius.tds.zip at the root of an appropriate texmf tree, likely a personal or local tree. If necessary, update the file-name database (e.g., texhash). Update the font-map files by enabling the Map file gillius.map. To use, add \usepackage{gillius} or \usepackage{gillius2} to the preamble of your document. These make Gillius (or Gillius No. 2) the default sans family. To also set them as the main text font, use the option sfdefault. LuaLaTeX and xeLaTeX users who might prefer type1 fonts or who wish to avoid fontspec may use the type1 option. The condensed option loads the condensed variants. Options scaled=<number> or scale=<number> may be used to adjust fontsizes to match a serifed font. The only figure style supported is proportional-lining. Font encodings supported are OT1, T1, LY1 and TS1. Commands \gillius, \gilliustwo, \gilliuscondensed and \gilliustwocondensed select the specified font family. The original fonts (version 1.009) were downloaded from http://arkandis.tuxfamily.org/adffonts.html and are licensed under the GPL License, (version 2 or later), with font exception; the text may be found in the doc directory. The type1 versions were created using cfftot1. The support files were created using autoinst and are licensed under the terms of the LaTeX Project Public License. The maintainer of this package is Bob Tennent (rdt at cs.queensu.ca)
