Core Font Set containing 35 freely distributable fonts from (URW)++


Description

The Level 2 Core Font Set is a PostScript specification of 35 base fonts that can be used with any PostScript file. In Fedora, these fonts are provided freely by (URW)++ company, and are mainly utilized by applications using Ghostscript.

Caveats

For now, we have to distribute both Type1 (with AFM files) and OTF formats of these fonts, because there are still many applications which expect the Type1 formats to be present in the system.
