`Computer Modern Bright' is a family of sans serif fonts for
TeX and LaTeX, based on Donald Knuth's `Computer Modern'.
It comprises OT1, T1 and TS1 encoded text fonts of various
shapes as well as all the fonts necessary for mathematical
typesetting, including the AMS symbols. CM Bright is
accompanied by a matching family of monospaced fonts,
`Computer Modern Typewriter Light'.
This distribution comprises
* the fonts in the Metafont format,
* the TeX font metrics,
* the LaTeX macro package cmbright.sty and the related font
definition files
The CM Bright fonts are available in the Type1 format, too.
See <http://www.micropress-inc.com/fonts/brmath/brmain.htm>.
To install, move all files to the corresponding directories
of your TeX system. In case yor TeX system does not support
the use of fonts in the obsolete Metafont format, omit the
directories fonts/source and doc/fonts.
Documentation regarding the use of the fonts can be found in
the document cmbright.pdf.
Additional documentation regarding the license of the
Metafont sources of the CM-Bright fonts can be found in the
directory texmf/doc/fonts/cmbright.
License
=======
The MF sources of the CM Bright and CM Typewriter Light
fonts are subject to the LPPL; see the files in the
directory doc/fonts/cmbright.
The LaTeX macros to use the CM Bright and CM Typewriter Light
fonts are separately(!) subject to the LPPL, too; see the
notice in the file source/latex/cmbrght/cmbright.dtx.
History
=======
*** 2005-04-13**
The fonts are now declared as continuously scalable, so
that arbitrary sizes are supported.
The obsolete hacks regarding the use of \oldstylenums
and \textregistered have been abolished.
When the package is loaded with the option
[slantedGreek], all upright uppercase Greek letters are
made available, too
Bug fix re. default definition of \Gamma.
The package will fix the (La)TeX logos to suit CM-Bright.
The package documentation now acts as a font sample,
too.
Source file cmbright.fdd abolished; all sources are in
the .dtx file now.
Distribution rearranged \`a la TDS.
*** 2002-05-25 ***
Fixed tbsymb.mf and all TFM's of the TC Bright fonts,
which had wong \fontdimen's; notice that the the font
shapes are unchanged!
Documentation (cmbright.dtx) cleaned up.
*** 2002-05-11 ***
fixed cmbr8.tfm cmbr9.tfm cmbrmb10.tfm cmbrmi8.tfm
cmbrmi9.tfm cmbrsl8.tfm cmbrsl9.tfm;
TFMs are no longer mentioned in manifest.txt
*** 2000-06-30 ***
cmbright v7.1: Bug fix. Loading amsfonts.sty with the
option [psamsfonts] would use the `roman' AMS fonts instead
of the `Bright' ones.
Improved documentation.
*** 2000-02-09 ***
fonts v1.0f: Fixed all Euro symbols.
*** 1999-05-12 ***
documentation revisited and reorganized
*** 1999-03-28 ***
cmbright.sty v6.9: new option [slantedGreek];
*** 1998-12-11 ***
cmbright.sty v6.7: Fixed the math font setup, so that
\mathbold acts on lowercase greek, too.
fonts v1.0e: improved Euro symbol (the metrics remain
unchanged!)
*** 1998-02-02 ***
fd files v7.3: font sizes 29.86 and 35.83 pt suppported
*** 1998-01-19 ***
Fixed cmbright.ins to prevent problems with Unix (teTeX):
Do not generate uppercase filenames automatically.
cmbright.ins now TDS-enabled.
Added oinst.ins for LaTeX < Dec.1996.
*** 1997-09-11 ***
cmbright.sty v6.6: added \relax after \ProcessOptions,
removed spurious spaces in font definitions
fd files v7.2: forced \hyphenchar\font45 in OT1 fonts,
removed spurious spaces in font definitions
included the new installation script, which was
erroneously lacking in the previous distribution :-(
*** 1997-06-03 ***
fixed a bug in the installation script: the fd files are
now generated with mixed-case names if necessary (i.e.
when running an obsolete LaTeX release on Unix)
fonts, v1.0d: corrected height of arithmetic symbols in
T1/TS1 fonts;
*** 1997-05-26 ***
Fonts, v1.0c: changed lowercase hachek accent in order
to avoid METAFONT errors occurring with certain MF modes;
fixed `root' symbol and big circles in TS1 fonts;
corrected rule_width# in semibold fonts, which had been
larger than it is in the bx fonts;
*** 1997/05/22 ***
fd files v7.0: lowercase filenames
fonts v1.0b: br17pt.mf fixed (o#, apex_o#)
cmbright.sty v6.4: minor fixes
enhanced documentation
*** 1996/11/20 ***
Documentation update only, e-mail address added.
*** 1996/07/02 ***
cmbright.sty, v6.2: The code for selecting font size and
\baselineskip has been basically changed. The default
font sizes defined in the class file will no longer be
changed. The size macros like \normalsize will no longer
be redefined. Same font sizes will always get the same
leading:
size \baselineskip
8pt 10.00pt
9pt 11.25pt
10pt 12.50pt
11pt 13.70pt
12pt 15.00pt
A new option [standard-baselineskips] enables you to
suppress the enlarged \baseselineskip values.
The commands \textregistered, \pounds, \textsterling and
\mathsterling have been made working; they will use the
roman text font.
font definition files, v6.0: In all .fd files octal
numbers have been changed to decimal ones, in order to
avoid conflicts with possibly active quote characters.
fonts, v1.0: erroneous comments fixed
*** 1996/05/02 ***
fonts: version 1.0
font definition files: 5.0
LaTeX package `cmbright': 5.0
The first `final' release, including the AMS fonts.
