README
This is the README for the classico package, version 2022-09-29. This package provides LaTeX, pdfLaTeX, XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX support for four URW Classico fonts, which are revisions by Hermann Zapf for the URW++ foundry of his Optima fonts. To install this package on a TDS-compliant TeX system, download the file "tex-archive"/install/fonts/classico.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 classico.map. To use, add \usepackage{classico} to the preamble of your document. This will activate Classico as the sans-serif text font. The command \renewcommand\sfdefault{uop} will also work (for compatibility with legacy documents). To activate Classico as the main text font, use \usepackage[sfdefault]{classico} or \renewcommand\familydefault{\sfdefault} Options scaled=<number> or scale=<number> may be used with the classico package to scale the fonts. The only figure style is proportional-lining. Font encodings supported are OT1, T1, LY1 and TS1. Earlier versions of this package supported artificial small-caps for OT1 and T1 encodings; this has been abandoned. LuaLaTeX and xeLaTeX users who might prefer type1 fonts or who wish to avoid fontspec may use the type1 option. Command \classico allows for localized use of Classico. The URW Classico fonts are Copyright (c) 2000 and 2013 by (URW)++ Design & Development The original TrueType fonts were obtained from http://svn.ghostscript.com/ghostscript/trunk/ghostpdl/urwfonts/ Distribution and modification of these fonts are allowed subject to the Aladdin Free Public License which is available here: http://svn.ghostscript.com/ghostscript/trunk/ghostpdl/COPYING.AFPL and has also been included in the archive as doc/fonts/classico/COPYING.AFPL This license allows modification and *non-commercial* distribution of the fonts, but not distribution in a commercial product. URW++ has corrected the original fonts and added many accented glyphs. These corrected and extended fonts are included in this package with their permission. The support files were created using autoinst and otftotfm version 2.101, 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)
