README
This is the README for the alegreya package, version 2022-09-14. This package provides LaTeX, pdfLaTeX, XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX support for the Alegreya and AlegreyaSans families of fonts, designed by Juan Pablo del Peral (juan at huertatipografica.com.ar) for Huerta Tipografica (http://www.huertatipografica.com.ar). To install this package on a TDS-compliant TeX system download the file "tex-archive"/install/fonts/alegreya.tds.zip where the preferred URL for "tex-archive" is http://mirrors.ctan.org. Unzip the archive 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 Alegreya.map. To use, add \usepackage{Alegreya} and/or \usepackage{AlegreyaSans} to the preamble of your document. These will activate Alegreya as the main (serifed) text font and/or Alegreya Sans as the sans-serif font. To use the Sans font as the main text font, use \usepackage[sfdefault]{AlegreyaSans} LuaLaTeX and xeLaTeX users who might prefer type1 fonts or who wish to avoid fontspec may use the type1 option. Options scaled=<number> or scale=<number> may be used to scale the fonts. The default figure style is proportional-lining, but the oldstyle (or osf) option will change the default to OldStyle figures and the tabular (or tf) option will change the default to tabular (monospaced) figures. Font encodings supported are OT1, T1, LY1, TS1 and LGR. The black option to either package activates that series as the default bold font and the medium option activates that series as the default regular font. Options thin, light and extrabold are similarly available but for the Sans family only. Commands \Alegreya, \AlegreyaExtraBold, \AlegreyaBlack, \AlegreyaMedium, \AlegreyaSans, \AlegreyaSansThin, \AlegreyaSansLight, \AlegreyaSansMedium, \AlegreyaSansExtraBold, and \AlegreyaSansBlack select the specified family. Commands \AlegreyaLF, \AlegreyaOsF, \AlegreyaTLF, and \AlegreyaTOsF allow for localized use of non-default figures. Superior or inferior numbers are available using \sufigures, \infigures, \textsu{...} or \textin{...}. 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 Opentype fonts were obtained from https://github.com/huertatipografica/ and are licensed under the SIL Open Font License, version 1.1; the text may be found in the doc directory. The type1 versions were created using ccftot1. The support files were created using autoinst and otftotfm and are licensed under the terms of the LaTeX Project Public License. Holger Gerhardt improved the ligatures. The maintainer of this package is Bob Tennent (rdt at cs.queensu.ca)

alegreya – Alegreya fonts with LaTeX support
The Alegreya fonts are designed by Juan Pablo del Peral for Huerta Tipográfica. Alegreya is a typeface originally intended for literature. It conveys a dynamic and varied rhythm which facilitates the reading of long texts. The italic has just as much care and attention to detail in the design as the roman. Bold, black, small caps and five number styles are available.
