NAME
     Adobe Utopia Typeface -- fonts for GNU Troff

SYNOPSIS
     groff -F/usr/local/share/utopia

DESCRIPTION
     The  print/utopia port installs the files needed to use the PostScript Type
     1 version of the Adobe Utopia typeface with GNU Troff, as it is  configured
     in a FreeBSD basic install.

USAGE
     The  port	installs the fonts and support files in /usr/local/share/utopia.
     To get Groff to see the fonts, one must either employ that program's -F op-
     tion to specify this directory, or one must set the  GROFF_FONT_PATH  envi-
     ronment variable.

     The fonts are named in Groff as follows.

	 Groff Font Name    Font
	 UR		    Utopia Roman
	 UI		    Utopia Italic
	 UB		    Utopia Bold
	 UBI		    Utopia Bold Italic

     One may employ the ".fam U" command to set the current family to Utopia.

LICENSE
     The fonts are released under a royalty-free licence, a copy of which may be
     found in

     /usr/local/share/utopia/devps/LICENSE

     Adobe  Utopia  was originally designed by Robert Slimbach and released com-
     mercially by Adobe Systems Incorporated  in  1989.   In  1992,  Adobe  con-
     tributed  the typeface to the X Consortium for distribution with the X Win-
     dow System, under a license allowing redistribution without fee.  In  2006,
     Adobe  re-licensed  the Type 1 versions to the TeX Users Group under an ex-
     panded license clarifying the terms under which modified  versions  may  be
     distributed,  and	granting  the right to sub-license.  TUG in turn sub-li-
     censed all their rights to the typeface to any and all interested parties.

     Note that this license applies only to the original PostScript Type 1  ver-
     sions  of	Adobe Utopia.  Adobe has since released a new commercial version
     of Utopia in OpenType format, to which this license does not apply.
