This is the README file of the bsmi00lp-20050618.tar.gz package.

The original font file is

  ftp://ftp.gnu.org/non-gnu/chinese-fonts-truetype/bsmi00lp.ttf.gz

It has been first converted with the fontforge script `subfonts.pe' to
create a set of Unicode encoded subfonts, then with the perl script
`uni2sfd.pl' to create virtual fonts which provide Big5 encoded subfonts as
used by the CJK package for LaTeX. Finally, the script `vertical.pe' has
been used to extract a font with vertical glyph representation forms
(`bsmiuv').

These scripts are part of the CJK package. You need fontforge 20050717 or
newer to run the scripts by yourself.

This font package follows the TDS directory structure; the font family names
for Unicode and Big5 font encodings are `bsmiu' and `bsmilp', respectively.
For installation, simply copy the files to the corresponding locations in
your TEXMF tree. LaTeX font definition files and example files for testing
can be found in the CJK package.
