Summary : Arbitrary size font selection in LaTeX
URL : http://tug.org/texlive/
License : LPPL
Description : LaTeX, by default, restricts the sizes at which you can use its
: default computer modern fonts, to a fixed set of discrete sizes
: (effectively, a set specified by Knuth). The type1cm package
: removes this restriction; this is particularly useful when
: using scalable versions of the cm fonts (Bakoma, or the
: versions from BSR/Y&Y, or True Type versions from Kinch, PCTeX,
: etc.). In fact, since modern distributions will automatically
: generate any bitmap font you might need, type1cm has wider
: application than just those using scaleable versions of the
: fonts. Note that the LaTeX distribution now contains a package
: fix-cm, which performs the task of type1cm, as well as doing
: the same job for T1- and TS1-encoded ec fonts.
