Summary : SC and OsF fonts for URW Palladio L
URL : http://tug.org/texlive/
License : GPL+
Description : The FPL Fonts provide a set of SC/OsF fonts for URW Palladio L
: which are compatible with respect to metrics with the Palatino
: SC/OsF fonts from Adobe. Note that it is not my aim to exactly
: reproduce the outlines of the original Adobe fonts. The SC and
: OsF in the FPL Fonts were designed with the glyphs from URW
: Palladio L as starting point. For some glyphs (e.g. 'o') I got
: the best result by scaling and boldening. For others (e.g. 'h')
: shifting selected portions of the character gave more
: satisfying results. All this was done using the free font
: editor FontForge. The kerning data in these fonts comes from
: Walter Schmidt's improved Palatino metrics. LaTeX use is
: enabled by the mathpazo package, which is part of the psnfss
: distribution.
