The PostScript Type 1 implementation of the AMSFonts produced by and
|
|
previously distributed by Blue Sky Research and Y&Y, Inc. are now freely
|
|
available for general use. This has been accomplished through the cooperation
|
|
of 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 Applied
|
|
Mathematics (SIAM) Springer-Verlag American Mathematical Society (AMS)
|
|
|
|
In order to assure the authenticity of these fonts, copyright will be held by
|
|
the American Mathematical Society. This is not meant to restrict in any way
|
|
the legitimate use of the fonts, such as (but not limited to) electronic
|
|
distribution of documents containing these fonts, inclusion of these fonts
|
|
into other public domain or commercial font collections or computer
|
|
applications, use of the outline data to create derivative fonts and/or
|
|
faces, etc. However, the AMS does require that the AMS copyright notice be
|
|
removed from any derivative versions of the fonts which have been altered in
|
|
any way. In addition, to ensure the fidelity of TeX documents using Computer
|
|
Modern fonts, Professor Donald Knuth, creator of the Computer Modern faces,
|
|
has requested that any alterations which yield different font metrics be
|
|
given a different name.
