Standard installation

This distribution is provided as a set of .dtx files which need to be unpacked using docstrip to create user files. The resulting .sty files change the font defaults to use some new group of fonts (sometimes just one default is changed).

Scripts are provided for docstrip in the form of .ins files, which simply need to be run through TEX; when that has been done, install all the .sty files that result in a directory where LATEX will find them.

You have an important decision to make at some point — are you going to use fonts encoded in the `Cork' layout, or the old ones which look like the CM fonts described in the TEX book? This manual will not attempt to explain why you should or should not use Cork fonts... Font description (.fd) files are available for both T1 and OT1 encoding in the CTAN fonts/psfonts directories.

If you follow the Cork-encoding route, you need different TEX font metric files and virtual font files. To activate this, use the package t1enc.

Important. If you use the Cork (T1 in LATEX2e scheme) encoding, you will probably also need the EC fonts to go with them, for maths and so on.

The standard `35' POSTSCRIPT fonts built into most POSTSCRIPT printers are known by their `Berry' names:
