Version 0.9 of the AE fonts
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is a set of virtual fonts building, from the standard CM fonts,
a set of almost T1 encoded fonts. The characters missing are mainly:
eth, thorn, and the sami letter eng. Sometimes the  character is
also missing. For the typewriter fonts, the situation is worse.

My idea with these fonts is that it should be possible to use the
exisiting Type1 versions of the CM fonts to produce PDF files even
when one needs hyphenation patterns other than English.

I want to call this a beta release, comments and suggestions are most
welcome. In particular, it would be nice to have a font containing the
missing caracters, in order to make the layout fully T1. By the way,
the name AE fonts was chosen since the fonts are Almost European
Computer Modern.

My thanks go to Rolf Niepraschk, who contributed ae.sty and helped me
track down some bugs, and Jonas Bofjll, who pointed out a serious
error in a previous version of the fonts.

To use the fonts, simply \usepackage{ae}.
