Subject: Lucida Bright Fonts from StarOffice
Date: Thu, 19 Aug 2004 09:21:44 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <6a394d6a1cfa.6a1cfa6a394d@tampabay.rr.com> (raw)
For right now, I am giving up on the postscript fonts. Lets try something else.
At http://home1.vr-web.de/~was/lucidayy/, you will see some files that tell you how to use the Lucida Bright fonts that come with StartOffice 5.2 with LaTeX.
I copied all the pfb and afm files from StarOffice52 into a folder. Its contents are:
[khilji@localhost fonts]$ ls *.pfb
hlcbot6w.pfb hlcrot6w.pfb hlhd80.pfb hlhri80.pfb hlsdo80.pfb hlsro80.pfb
hlcbot80.pfb hlcrot80.pfb hlhd81.pfb hlhri81.pfb hlsdo81.pfb hlsro81.pfb
hlcbot81.pfb hlcrot81.pfb hlhdi80.pfb hlsd6w.pfb hlsr6w.pfb
hlcbt6w.pfb hlcrt6w.pfb hlhdi81.pfb hlsd80.pfb hlsr80.pfb
hlcbt80.pfb hlcrt80.pfb hlhr80.pfb hlsd81.pfb hlsr81.pfb
hlcbt81.pfb hlcrt81.pfb hlhr81.pfb hlsdo6w.pfb hlsro6w.pfb
[khilji@localhost fonts]$
I also have all the *.afm files from StarOffice.
Is there any way I can use these fonts with ConTeXt? If yes, where do I need to copy them and what do I rename them to? Are these fonts exactly the same as the ones that you buy from yandy.com?
Also the above site says "On the other hand, only the basic font styles (roman, sans serif, typewriter) are available, whereas the fonts from Y&Y include many more variants such as true smallcaps, sans serif italic, fax, handwriting, blackletter and more)" Does CoTeXt use the other fonts that are missing?
I suppose it would be legal for me to use these fonts with ConTeXt? I may have to ask someone at yandy.com. It could be possible that these fonts are supposed to be used with StarOffice and StarOffice only.
