It consists of: Caslon (serif font): roman, oblique, bold, black, small-caps (but no bold-oblique) Monospace (~courier): roman, oblique, bold [and no-Type-1 bold-oblique] Cupola (~~~Informal): Roman, italic, bold, bold-italic, small caps Caliban (~helvetica): Roman(?) How can I use it best? I'd like to use it as complete replacement for CM for some documents, since has a lot of nice characterts. --------------------------- They do not contain * Any of the CJK characters (ideographs) * Asian & Indian alphabets and sylabaries * Arabic The CaslonRoman font contains (other fonts contain fewer): * 0000-02a8 Latin & IPA * 02b0-0361 diacritics * 0370-03f3 greek * 0401-04f9 cyrillic * 0500-050f proposed cyrillic extensions * 0530-0589 armenian * 0591-05f4 hebrew * 0e01-0e5a thai * 1680-169f ogham (celtic runes) * 16a0-16df elder fuşark (germanic runes) * 1e00-1eff more latin * 1f00-1fff more greek * 2000-2046 punctuation * 2070-208e sub/super scripts * 20a0-20af currency * 2100-2138 letterlike symbols * 2153-2182 number forms * 2190-21ea arrows * 2200-22f2 mathmatical operators * 2300-232f (some) misc. technical * 2400-2424 control pictures * 2460-24ea (some) enclosed alphanumerics * 2500-257f box drawing * 2580-2595 block elements * 25a0-25ef geometric shapes * 2600-266f misc symbols * 3041-309e hiragana * 30a1-30fe katakana * fb00-fb06 (some) alphabetic presentation forms (latin ligatures) I have extended this area slightly.
