Description : The package provides a LaTeX interface to the micro-typographic
: extensions that were introduced by pdfTeX and have since also
: propagated to XeTeX and LuaTeX: most prominently, character
: protrusion and font expansion, furthermore the adjustment of
: interword spacing and additional kerning, as well as
: hyphenatable letterspacing (tracking) and the possibility to
: disable all or selected ligatures. These features may be
: applied to customisable sets of fonts, and all micro-
: typographic aspects of the fonts can be configured in a
: straight-forward and flexible way. Settings for various fonts
: are provided. Note that character protrusion requires pdfTeX,
: LuaTeX, or XeTeX. Font expansion works with pdfTeX or LuaTeX.
: The package will by default enable protrusion and expansion if
: they can safely be assumed to work. Disabling ligatures
: requires pdfTeX or LuaTeX, while the adjustment of interword
: spacing and of kerning only works with pdfTeX. Letterspacing is
: available with pdfTeX or LuaTeX. The alternative package
: `letterspace', which also works with plain TeX, provides the
: user commands for letterspacing only, omitting support for all
: other extensions.
