The Kerkis Font Family
Version 2.0
The Kerkis Font Family has now reached version 2.0. This version adds
full
polytonic support for Greek plus greek numerals in all shapes and all
series.
In addition to this we give a preliminary version of KerkisSans. Kerkis
is
based on URW Bookman freely distributed with many TeX systems.
KerkisSans is based on a free version of AvantGard found around the
Internet.
Both Kerkis and
KerkisSans greatly extend the amount of glyphs of their predecessors.
Kerkis provides the following series/shapes:
- Roman and Italic
- Bold and BoldItalic
- SemiBold and SemiBoldItalic
- Small Capitals for the Roman
- Small Capitals for the Bold
- Calligraphic
KerkisSans provides:
- Roman and Italic
- Bold and Italic
- Small Capitals for the Roman
In this pages we will give instructions for LaTeX and X11 (Kerkis is
now
included in Mandrake-Linux). The fonts can also work with GNU-groff
