Haralambous Broken Typefaces PostScript Fonts (Adobe Type 1 format) Copyright (c) 2002 Torsten Bronger, torsten.bronger@gmx.de 2002/05/23 Ver. 1.0 This PostScript Type 1 implementation of the fonts yfrak, yswab and ygoth, originally created by Yannis Haralambous using METAFONT, is freely available for general use. The conversion was done with textrace, finetuning and hinting with pfaedit. This distribution does not contain the TFM files that are necessary to use the fonts with TeX; the TFM files can be obtained from CTAN, in fonts/gothic/{yfrak,yswab,ygoth}, where you also can find the Metafont sources of the original glyphs. Notice that the AFM files included in this distribution contain no ligature information, therefore they cannot be used to generate proper TFM files. The fragment for the dvips mapfile is yfrak yfrak-Regular < yfrak.pfb yswab yswab-Regular < yswab.pfb ygoth ygoth-Regular < ygoth.pfb Although the PFB files may still need some finetuning, the font metrics are frozen since 1990 and thus the use with TeX is totally unaffected by future improvements of the PFB files.
