Description-en: type1 and tfm DNP Japanese fonts for latex-cjk
This package installs Type1 and TFM fonts from a DNP font called "Wadalab".
You'll get three flavours: Mincho, Gothic and Maru.
.
DNP stands for "Dai Nippon Printing" (a big printing company in Japan).
DNP fonts are commercial fonts made by this company; if real DNP fonts have
been already installed at your site, you should use them. But watanabe-dnp
fonts (like Wadalab), which are customized from watanabe-jfonts to emulate
DNP fonts, are freeware. The method of emulation is symbolic name linking.
.
These Type1 fonts differ from those in the gsfonts-wadalab package, because
CJK author Werner Lemberg has introduced some fixes.
