urw garamond for distribution

urw garamond for distribution

[Peter Münster]

Hello,

I've put 3 files into http://pmrb.free.fr/tmp/garamond/ :

t-garamond.tex
texnansi-urw-garamond.map
type-ugm.tex

Would you put them into the distribution? (would be nice)

Cheers, Peter

where have the ol' dam' font was Re: urw garamond for distribution

[andrea valle]

Hi to all,
I asked to the list how to know which font are installed on my machine.
The reply was that I cannot guess this info from inside tex, but it  
should be possible to grasp information starting form the distro I use.

(I'm using TeXShop, with Gerben distro on macosx)

So, I was tinkering: can anyone suggest a list of widely used font name  
so that at least I can try to call them from inside ConTeXt and see if  
they are present or not?
I was lucky with Palatino, as an example.


Thanks to all

-a-

I support the idea of including urw-garamond in the distribution. 
Makes it much easier for font newbies like me to use them :)

BTW, do you plan to add support for "math design" font for garamond?

Please wrap them up in an external module if you want them included
in the distribution. Have a look at
     http://modules.contextgarden.net/urwgothic

As an example; it should be very close those what is needed for
urwgaramond. If you have any trouble, drop me a message privately.

Cheers, taco

ok, thanks 

if these font defs are stable i.e. don't need regular maintainance by a third party, they can be added to the regular typescript some day

Hans,

De 'BNF Grammar' module is ook klaar voor cont-ext. Ik zou ze trouwens
lekker in cont-ext laten zitten, dan wordt het ook nooit jouw probleem
als er iets verandert aan het font zelf.

I don't know, but URW Garamond seems to be stable at least since the last
12 month.

ok, keep an eye on it; as soon as you think garamond defs can be moved to the core, let us know (my experience is that font gets renamed without communication -)

All right, I'll check the modification dates in
ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/dante/nonfree/fonts/urw/garamond/ on a regular time
interval.
But for me, there is only one little difference in the case of font
changes:
- if the files are in cont-ext.zip, then I'll update the module on
  contextgarden.net
- if the files are in cont-tmf.zip, then I'll drop you an email to update
  the typescripts
Cheers, Peter
