>The kpfonts-otf package
========================

## Description

`kpfonts-otf` is meant as a replacement, for LuaLaTeX and XeLaTeX users,
of Christophe Caignaert’s `kpfonts` package. Christophe’s Type1 fonts have
been converted to OpenType using fontforge and Adobe's AFDKO bundle.
The package is still experimental, bug reports and suggestions are welcome.

## Contents

* the `font/` directory holds 21 OpenType fonts (16 for text and 5 for maths);
* the `tex/`  directory holds the style file kpfonts-otf.sty and
  fontspec configuration files;
* the `doc/`  directory holds documentation in English and French and
  a table of available maths symbols comparing kpfonts-otf to LatinModern,
  STIXTwo, Erewhon, TeXGyreTermes, Garamond and Libertinus.

## Installation

This package is meant to be installed automatically by TeXLive, MikTeX, etc.
Otherwise, `kpfonts-otf` can be installed under TEXMFHOME or TEXMFLOCAL, f.i.

+ alls fonts (`fonts/*.otf` files) in directory
  `texmf-local/fonts/opentype/public/kpfonts-otf/`
+ style and fontspec files (`tex/kpfonts-otf.sty` and `tex/*.fontspec`) in
  directory `texmf-local/tex/latex/kpfonts-otf/`
+ documentation (from doc/ directory) in
  `texmf-local/doc/fonts/public/kpfonts-otf/`

Don't forget to rebuild the file database (mktexlsr or so) if you install
under TEXMFLOCAL.

Finally, you may want to make the system font database aware of the
`kpfonts-otf` fonts (fontconfig under Linux).

  =  ≠  <  ≤  >  ≥ (all five maths fonts affected, original Type1 too).

  1. Text fonts:
     - `kpfonts-otf.sty` corrected: the "light" option didn't work properly.

     - Reduced boldness for superscripts and supersuperscripts.

    - Roman Text fonts:
      Added 54 glyphs in Latin-ExtendedA range (mostly complete now).

* v. 0.34:
  Massive glyph cleaning: many spurious control points deleted in glyphs
  for both Maths and Text fonts.

  1. Text fonts:
     - kernings before and after quoteright improved.
     - German capital Eszet (U+1E9E) added, in Petite and Small caps too,
       feature "StylisticSet=2" added to get SS instead of capital Eszet.
     - diacritics corrected in `KpRoman-LightItalic` (some were upright).
     - breaking change: feature "Alternate=1" changed to "StylisticSet=1"
       as it didn't work with XeTeX.
  2. Maths fonts:
     -  metrics (width, italic correction) reviewed.
     -  accents ovhook (U+0309), candra (U+0310), vertoverlay (U+202D) added.

     - Extensible delimiters corrected in KpMath-Sans.
     - Options `frenchstyle`, `partialup` and `fancyReIm` now work as intended.

  2. Maths fonts:
     - Completed the collection of "squares", "triangles", "diamonds" and
       "lozenges".

       shifted up, their bottom rests on the baseline now.

  2. Math fonts:
     - \vert and \Vert corrected: left and right bearings enlarged.
     - \Vvert (U+2980) added.

         Fixed inconsistencies about bold and semibold integrals.

* v. 0.46:
  1. Text fonts: option longs deleted, option veryoldstyle improved, the
         substitution from `s' to `ſ' is now handled by "StylisticSet=12".

         - Vertical variants added for \vert, \Vert, \Vvert.
     - Added extensible integral for U+222B (usable with luametatex).

* v. 0.47:
         Text fonts: moved the s= ligature from liga to hlig as it only makes
         sense with the "veryoldstyle" option.
