Luciole package
|
||
===============
|
||
|
||
## Description
|
||
|
||
This package provides four Unicode Math text fonts `Luciole-*.ttf` and
|
||
a companion maths font `Luciole-Math.otf`.
|
||
They have been developed explicitly for visually impaired people
|
||
and are the result of a collaboration between the Regional Technical Center
|
||
for Visual Impairment, the type-design studio typographies.fr and
|
||
the mathematician Daniel Flipo. The Luciole project received a grant from
|
||
the Swiss Ceres Foundation and the PEP69 association, and support from
|
||
the DIPHE laboratory at the Université Lumière Lyon 2 and the association
|
||
GUTenberg.
|
||
|
||

## Installation
|
||
|
||
This package `Luciole’ is meant to be installed automatically by TeXLive,
|
||
MikTeX, etc. Otherwise, can be installed under TEXMFHOME or TEXMFLOCAL, f.i.
|
||
text and math fonts in directory texmf-local/fonts/truetype/public/luciole/,
|
||
and luciole-math.sty, Luciole.fontspec in directory
|
||
texmf-local/tex/latex/luciole/.
|
||
Documentation files and their sources can go to directory
|
||
texmf-local/doc/fonts/public/luciole/
|
||
|
||
Don't forget to rebuild the file database (mktexlsr or so) if you install
|
||
under TEXMFLOCAL.
|
||
|
||
Finally, make the system font database aware of the Luciole fonts
|
||
(fontconfig under Linux).
