AMSFonts PostScript Fonts (Adobe Type 1 format) -----------------------------------------------------------------------------The PostScript Type 1 implementation of the AMSFonts produced by andpreviously distributed by Blue Sky Research and Y&Y, Inc. are now freelyavailable for general use. This has been accomplished through the cooperationof a consortium of scientific publishers with Blue Sky Research and Y&Y.Members of this consortium include: Elsevier Science IBM Corporation Society for Industrial and AppliedMathematics (SIAM) Springer-Verlag American Mathematical Society (AMS) In order to assure the authenticity of these fonts, copyright will be held bythe American Mathematical Society. This is not meant to restrict in any waythe legitimate use of the fonts, such as (but not limited to) electronicdistribution of documents containing these fonts, inclusion of these fontsinto other public domain or commercial font collections or computerapplications, use of the outline data to create derivative fonts and/orfaces, etc. However, the AMS does require that the AMS copyright notice beremoved from any derivative versions of the fonts which have been altered inany way. In addition, to ensure the fidelity of TeX documents using ComputerModern fonts, Professor Donald Knuth, creator of the Computer Modern faces,has requested that any alterations which yield different font metrics begiven a different name. The AMS does not provide technical support or installation assistance beyondany installation instructions included in this file.  Installation and use ofthese fonts may require some technical expertise.  Review this READ.ME filein its entirety before undertaking an installation. The fonts are available in Macintosh and PFB (binary Type 1) outlineformats. The canonical version of the PostScript AMSFonts is located onthe AMS FTP server, ftp.ams.org, at /pub/tex/psfonts/amsfonts.   ----------------------------------------------------------------------------History The PostScript versions of the AMSFonts were produced  by Blue Sky Researchof Portland, Oregon, and Y&Y, Inc., of Concord, Massachusetts, who publishedthe fonts in conjunction with their commercial implementations of the TeXprogram. Character outlines were derived from high-resolution METAFONT-generatedcharacter bitmaps by the ScanLab application from Projective Solutions (IanMorrison and Henry Pinkham), applied and corrected by Douglas Henderson ofBlue Sky Research. Character hints were created by software from Y&Y(Berthold and Blenda Horn), with extensive hand work by Blenda Horn. Fontengineering, production, and packaging were by Douglas Henderson and BertholdHorn.   ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Font Distributions The canonical version of the PostScript AMSFonts is located on the AMSFTP server, ftp.ams.org, at /pub/tex/psfonts/amsfonts.  These fontsare also available on the Comprehensive TeX Archive Network (CTAN). The following three files are in this directory for you to download: amsps-textures.hqx         for use with Textures, contains fonts in standard				Macintosh Type 1 formatamsps-oztex.hqx            for use with OzTeX, contains fonts in standard				Macintosh Type 1 formatamsps-pc.zip               for use on a Windows or DOS system, contains fonts				in PFB format with PFM metrics filesamsps-unix.tar.gz          for use on a Unix system, contains fonts in				PFB format with AFM metrics files  Each distribution includes a READ.ME file which contains instructionsfor installing the fonts.  Please review the READ.ME file in its entiretybefore undertaking to install the fonts on your system.
