This is the README for the librecaslon package, version 2013-10-15. This package provides LaTeX, pdfLaTeX, XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX support for the Libre Caslon family of fonts, designed by Pablo Impallari. To install this package on a TDS-compliant TeX system download the file tex-archive/install/fonts/librecaslon.tds.zip and unzip at the root of an appropriate texmf tree, likely a personal or local tree. If necessary, update the file-name database (e.g., texhash). Update the font-map files by enabling the Map file LibreCaslon.map. To use, add \usepackage{librecaslon} to the preamble of your document. This will activate Libre Caslon Text as the main (serifed) text font. A bold italic variant of Libre Caslon is not currently available; as a stopgap, an artificially slanted version has been generated and treated as if it were italic. LuaLaTeX and xeLaTeX users who might prefer type1 fonts or who wish to avoid fontspec may use the type1 option. Options scaled= or scale= may be used to scale the fonts. The default figure style is lining but option osf (or oldstyle) allows for use of oldstyle figures. Font encodings supported are OT1, T1, LY1 and TS1. Macro \librecaslon selects the Libre Caslon Text family. Macros \librecaslonLF and \librecaslonOsF allow for local use of lining or oldstyle figures. \textsu{...} can be used for superior (superscript) figures. Command \useosf switches the default figure style to old-style figures; this is primarily for use after calling a math package with lining figures as the default. The original fonts (version 1.0) were obtained from http://www.impallari.com/projects/overview/libre-caslon-display-and-text and are licensed under the SIL Open Font License (version 1.1); the text may be found in the doc directory. The opentype and type1 versions were created using fontforge. The support files were created using autoinst and are licensed under the terms of the LaTeX Project Public License. The maintainer of this package is Bob Tennent (rdt at cs.queensu.ca)
