README
This is the README for the quattrocento package, version 2022-09-13. This package provides LaTeX, pdfLaTeX, XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX support for the Quattrocento and Quattrocento Sans families of fonts, designed by Pablo Impallari. Quattrocento is a classic typeface with wide and open letterforms, and great x-height, which makes it very legible for body text at small sizes. Tiny details that only show up at bigger sizes make it also great for display use. Quattrocento Sans is the perfect sans-serif companion for Quattrocento. To install this package on a TDS-compliant TeX system download the file "tex-archive"/install/fonts/quattrocento.tds.zip, where the preferred URL for "tex-archive" is http://mirror.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 quattrocento.map. To use, add \usepackage{quattrocento} to the preamble of your document. This will activate Quattrocento as the main (serifed) text font and Quattrocento Sans as the sans font. Italic variants of Quattrocento are not currently available; artificially slanted versions have been generated and treated as if they were italic. To activate Quattrocento without Quattrocento Sans, use \usepackage[rm]{quattrocento} Similarly, to activate Quattrocento Sans without Quattrocento use \usepackage[sf]{quattrocento} To use Quattrocento Sans as the main text font, use \usepackage[sfdefault]{quattrocento} This re-defines \familydefault, not \rmdefault. 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 Quattrocento Sans fonts; the serifed variants are not affected. The only figure style supported is proportional-lining. Font encodings supported are OT1, T1, LY1 and TS1. Macros \quattrocento and \quattrocentosans select the Quattrocento and Quattrocento Sans families, respectively. The original fonts are available at http://www.google.com/webfonts and are licensed under the SIL Open Font License, (version 1.1); the text may be found in the doc directory. The slanted and type1 versions were created using fontforge and are re-named in compliance with the Reserved Font Name provision of the OFL license. The support files were created using autoinst and these and other documentation are licensed under the terms of the LaTeX Project Public License. The maintainer of this package is Bob Tennent (rdt at cs.queensu.ca)
