If you use % XE\LaTeX or Lua\LaTeX, access to fonts has been greatly simplified. % In that case, you don't need this package. % % 'Verdana' is a common font that can be downloaded from: % \url{http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/corefonts/verdan32.exe?download} % % The font is readily available on machines with a Microsoft % operating system. % % The wrapper provides a T1 encoded font. % % The wrapper would be most straightforward weren't it for the % ligature problems that Verdana exhibits. % The core of the problem is that over the years, % Microsoft removed several glyphs from the font, including the % ligatures 'fi' and 'fl' (on the T1 octal positions 34 and 35). % The font version 2006 (as it can be downloaded from sourceforge), % still has the ligatures. In version 2008 they have been removed. In % version 2010, even more glyphs have been removed. The reason for % removing these glyphs is unclear to me. % % To overcome these issues, the wrapper provides an option '|nofligs|' % (shorthand for 'no f-ligatures'), that disables the invocation of % these ligatures involving f. % % If a testpage, or a testfont page generated with % \TeX{} shows missing ligatures, then just use the options % '|nofligs|'. % % Most standard \TeX{} installations do embed fonts in PDF % files. However, in case your PDF document does not contain embedded % fonts, make sure, when handing over a PDF document % containing Verdana to your publishing company, to check wether their % version of Verdana contains the fi and fl glyphs. E.g., send them a % document generated without the '|nofligs|' option, containing the % sentence: ``the flying fish fled finally'', and ask them to send you % a print-out of the document. If it reads ``the ying sh ed nally'', % then you'd better turn on the '|nofligs|' option when generating your % print-ready PDF (or make sure you create PDFs with embedded fonts). % % \section{Installation} % % The following excellent webpages tell you everything there is to % know about installing fonts: % \url{http://tug.org/fonts/fontinstall.html}. Please, read % it (especially section 4). Every step of it is important. % % You will find a procedure for: % \begin{itemize} % \item TeX Live % \item MiKTeX % \item MacTeX % \end{itemize} % % Of course, you have to make sure the Verdana ttf files are available % in your \TeX search path. The TDS tree of the package (available in % the verdana.tds.zip package) contains an indication of a common % place to put your ttf files. % % \section{Usage} % % The macro package verdana loads the verdana font for use with % \LaTeX. As the font is T1 encoded, we first specify the usage of % T1. % \begin{verbatim} % \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} % \usepackage{verdana} % \end{verbatim} % or one can selectively enable the verdana fonts using: % \begin{verbatim} % \fontfamily{vna}\selectfont % \end{verbatim} % % In case your Verdana exhibits the f-ligature problems mentioned % before, use the option '|nofligs|': % \begin{verbatim} % \usepackage[nofligs]{verdana} % \end{verbatim} % or one can selectively enable the verdana fonts without f-ligatures using: % \begin{verbatim} % \fontfamily{vnax}\selectfont % \end{verbatim} % \section{Demo} % % Below, one can find the four variants of the verdana font, % corresponding to the four ttf flavours. % % \newcommand{\fontblurb}{ % ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ\\ % abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz\\ % 0123456789-\{\}';/.,@\%><\&*()\\ % Ligature test: ff fi fl ffi ffl - -- ---\\} % \newcommand{\loremipsum}{ % Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do % eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.
