This directory contains all the font properties list (VPL)
for the GFS Didot family and few other VPL files
needed to build them.
The different VPL files are:
didot*7a.vpl VPL files for each serie and shape of the GFS Didot
and the encoding OT1. These files have been tuned individually
(each! a long work) and only the metrics of the characters
have been included automatically.
ts1-gfsdidot_model.vpl
VPL file used as a model to build all the GFS Didot
VPL fonts for the TS1 encoding (Text Companion encoding).
This file has been manually crafted but all the specific
parts have been marked (with special strings or comments)
By using some scripts available in the directory "../tools"
all the GFS Didot fonts for the TS1 encoding can be generated.
The main file to use is "../tools/MetricsTS1Fonts.sh".
Since not all characters for the TS1 encoding are available
in the GFS Didot Postscript fonts, a supplementary font
TeXGyre Pagella was used to retrieve the misssing characters.
This model should be used when the Postscript font GFS Didot
in regular form is used (since this font contains more characters
than the other GFS Didot Postcript fonts).
ts1-gfsdidot_model_1.vpl
similar to the previous one but more characters are retrieved from
the font TeXGyre Pagella. It should be used when the GFS Didot Postscript
fonts in non regular shape and serie are used
ts1-gfsdidot*.vpl
The final VPL font file for the GFS Didot font and the TS1 encoding.
gdidot*6a.vpl The final VPL used to produce the greek fonts. These
files are generated fully automatically.
gfsudidotmath8a.vpl
The files for producing the math font. This file has been tuned manually.
