Using Linotype Palatino with Latex ================================== This package contains everything you need (apart from the fonts themselves) to use Linotype Palatino in your Latex documents. The Truetype version of Linotype Palatino contains a much larger character set than earlier (Postscript) versions of Palatino, including Greek, Cyrillic and small caps in all weights and shapes. It is distributed with Microsoft Windows 2000 and XP. USING THE FONTS --------------- Using these fonts in your Latex documents is as easy as specifying \usepackage{palatinox} (*) somewhere in the preamble of your document (but note that they should be used with Pdftex, not with normal Tex; most dvi-drivers don't support Truetype fonts). (*) It's named `palatinox' to avoid confusion with the `palatino' package in the PSNFSS bundle. The package `palatinox' takes two possible options: - lining Use lining figures - oldstyle Use oldstyle figures (this is the default). The fonts are only available in T1 and TS1 encodings; the `palatinox' package automatically sets up these encodings for you by including the `fontenc' and `textcomp' packages. The obsolete OT1 encoding, which unfortunately is still Latex's default, is not supported. NFSS CLASSIFICATION encodings family series shape(s) -------------------------------------------- T1 lplx m, b n, it, sc, ic (*) T1 lplj m, b n, it, sc, ic TS1 lplx m, b n, it TS1 lplj m, b n, it (*) ic = Italic (small) Caps The TS1-encoded fonts are incomplete; many symbols in this encoding are specific to the Computer Modern fonts. The euro symbol (\texteuro), however, is included.
