README
This is the README for the gofonts package, version 2022-09-12. This package provides LaTeX, pdfLaTeX, XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX support for the GoSans and GoMono families of fonts designed by the Bigelow & Holmes foundry for the Go project. GoSans is available in three weights: Regular, Medium and Bold (with corresponding italics). GoMono is available in Regular and Bold, with italics. Regular and italic small caps are provided. Notes on the design may be found at https://blog.golang.org/go-fonts To install this package on a TDS-compliant TeX system download the file "tex-archive"/install/fonts/gofonts.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 go.map. To use, add \usepackage{GoSans} to the preamble of your document. These will activate GoSans as the sans-serif text font. To activate it as the main text font, use \usepackage[sfdefault]{GoSans} Use \usepackage{GoMono} to activate GoMono as the monospaced text font. The nomap option will suppress the tex-text mapping of TeX "smart quotes" and other ligatures into unicode glyphs for xeLaTeX and luaLaTeX. 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. Font encodings supported are OT1, T1, TS1, LY1 and LGR. For GoSans, the medium option activates that series as the default bold series. Commands \gomedium and \gobold allow for localized use of those series. Commands \golgr and \gomonolgr allow for localized use of LGR-encoded type1 fonts. The original TrueType fonts were obtained from https://go.googlesource.com/image and are licensed under the same open source license as the rest of the Go project's software. The text may be found in the doc directory. The 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 at rdt(at)cs(dot)queensu(dot)ca.
