Upload Information Template for Hobbes.nmsu.edu =============================================== Archive Filename: urw_ps-c44_p2.wpi Short Description: URW/GhostScript core fonts (Type 1 format), release urwcyr1.07-pre44 (part 2: redundant fonts) Long Description: The URW++ core fonts are high-quality open source clones of the basic PostScript core font set (Cyrillic-enabled versions from Valek Filippov and the GhostScript project. This package contains the fonts which were omitted from part 1: "Nimbus Sans L" (Helvetica clone), "Nimbus Sans Mono L" (Courier clone), "Nimbus Roman No. 9 L" (Times Roman clone) and "Standard Symbols L" (Symbol clone).
Since OS/2 already includes Helvetica, Courier, Times New Roman, and Symbol, most users will have no need for these fonts. This package is provided merely in order to make sure that all the URW++ core fonts are available together.
These fonts are licensed under the GNU GPL. They have been recompiled with some adjustments to the font naming logic, for optimal OS/2 compatibility.
Note: If you use OpenOffice, or require Unicode support, you are recommended to get the TrueType versions of these fonts (available separately) instead.
The font installation will use the INSTFONT utility if it is found on your system. Otherwise, rebooting will be necessary to activate the fonts after install.
