:Abstract: Set up the Zapf Chancery font as script (calligraphic) math
           alphabet.

           **Obsoleted by the urwchancal_ package.**


Versions

:0.1:  2011-02-03  first published version
:0.2:  2011-03-28  documentation update: deprecated by urwchancal_

Introduction
============

The `pzccal` package sets up the Zapf Chancery font (pzcmi7t) as
script (calligraphic) math alphabet ``\mathpzc``. It provides options
to scale the font and to configure the alias command name. By default,
`pzccal` overwrites the predefined math alphabet command ``\mathcal``.

The urwchancal_ package (developed independently and published less
than a month after pzcal.sty) provides not only a style file but also
virtual fonts solving problems with accents and spacing.  Like
`pzcal`, it provides both lowercase and capital Latin math script
letters. It is highly recommended to use ``urwchancal.sty`` instead of
``pzcal.sty``.

====================  =====================================

The bidirectional text <-> code converter PyLit_ can convert between
``pzccal.sty`` and ``pzccal.sty.txt``.

The Python Docutils_ and pdflatex were used to generate the HTML and PDF
documentation from the reStructuredText_ sources.


Requirements
============

This package uses fonts from the PSNFSS bundle.
It also requires kvoptions_.


Installation
============

* Unpack pzccal.zip (preferably in a TDS_ documentation folder).

* Make sure LaTeX can find pzccal.sty:

  Copy/Move/Link it to a suitable place in the TDS_ and run ``texhash``
  or place it in the current working directory (e.g. for testing).


Usage
=====

It is highly recommended to use urwchancal_::

  \usepackage{urwchancal}

instead of ::

  \usepackage{pzccal}

Option descriptions in the literate source.
