494 Appendix G. T E X Fonts<br />

Package:<br />

latexsym<br />

amsfonts<br />

The term old in these encoding names refers <strong>to</strong> the original encoding<br />

as introduced by Donald Knuth, in the same way that the text encoding<br />

OT1 indicated the old, or original, text encoding with 128 characters per<br />

font. The new encoding schemes contain 256 characters. For text, the<br />

encoding is named T1 (Section G.4.3); such extended math fonts do not<br />

yet exist.<br />

The extra A M S fonts in Section 12.4.1 add additional bold face sizes<br />

for cmmib* <strong>and</strong> cmbsy* as well as some more sizes for cmex*.<br />

Decorative fonts<br />

Three families of decorative or special fonts are available in a single design<br />

size <strong>and</strong> limited attributes. They all exhibit OT1 encoding.<br />

cmfr Funny Roman family, consists of two fonts, cmff10 leaning <strong>to</strong> the left<br />

<strong>and</strong> cmfi10 which leans <strong>to</strong> the right. Both are series m with shapes n<br />

<strong>and</strong> it respectively.<br />

cmfib Fibonacci family, contains one font cmfib8 derived from the Fibonacci<br />

series of numbers. It has series m <strong>and</strong> shape n.<br />

cmdunh Dunhill family, with one font cmdunh10 with series m <strong>and</strong> shape<br />

n. This font is demonstrated in the sample letterhead on page 364.<br />

Logo fonts<br />

The fonts logo8, logo9, logo10, logosl10, <strong>and</strong> logobf10 contain only<br />

the nine letters A, E, F, M, N, O, P, S, <strong>and</strong> T, for generating the logos<br />

METAFONT METAFONT METAFONT<br />

METAPOST METAPOST METAPOST<br />

The L AT E X lasy fonts<br />

As an extension of the cmsy* fonts for mathematical symbols, L AT E X pro-<br />

vides some additional symbols with the font lasy* in design sizes 5–10 pt.<br />

It contains the 15 symbols: ✭ ✮ ✯ ✰ ✁ ✂ ✄ ☎ ✵ ✶ ✷ ✸ ❀ ❁ ❂.<br />

These symbols are not defined unless one of the packages latexsym<br />

or amsfonts has been loaded.<br />

Fonts for making pictures<br />

The special picture elements for use in the L AT E X picture environment are<br />

s<strong>to</strong>red in fonts named line10, lcircle10, linew10, <strong>and</strong> lcirclew10.<br />

The first two are used for lines, ovals, <strong>and</strong> circles when \thinlines is<br />

in effect. The sloping lines <strong>and</strong> arrow heads are <strong>to</strong> be found in line10
