The original distribution site of the font files is
<http://www.artifex.com/downloads/>.

The fonts are accompanied by the TeX font metrics, virtual
fonts, font definition and font mapping files to use them
with the LaTeX typesetting system on the PC or Un*x
platform.  The layout of the distribution and the related
installation instructions suit recent, TDS-compliant TeX
systems, particularly teTeX, MikTeX and VTeX/Free.



Installation paths
------------------
The files of your TeX system are arranged in one or more
tree structures, the so-called "texmf trees".  The names and
paths of the particular root directories of these trees vary
between different TeX systems.  In the following
instructions the install paths are indicated in a form such
as, for instance:

  <texmf>/fonts/type1/...
 
<texmf> stands for the the actual name of the root directory
of the texmf tree, where you want to install the files:  

teTeX and MikTeX require additional files to be installed in
a particular "local" tree (rather than in the one where the
default components of the TeX system reside).  Its path must
either be indicated in the documentation of the TeX system
or you should have defined it yourself upon installation.
With MikTeX 2.4+, for instance, the root directory of the
"local" texmf tree is usually "c:\localtexmf", so you would
in fact have to substitute

  c:\localtexmf\fonts\type1\...
 
for the path name in the above example.  

VTeX/Free, in contrast, has only one single texmf tree,
whose root directory is normally "/usr/local/vtex/texmf" (on
Linux) or "c:\texmf" (on OS/2).

Note that paths are indicated in "Unix notation" (i.e.,
using slashes as directory separators), unless they are
specific for Win or OS/2.



Installing the Type1 font files in your TeX system
--------------------------------------------------
The Type1 font files

  ugmr8a.pfb
  ugmri8a.pfb
  ugmb8a.pfb
  ugmbi8a.pfb

are to be copied to the directory

  <texmf>/fonts/type1/urw/garamond
  
of your TeX system, and the related .afm files should go
into

  <texmf>/fonts/afm/urw/garamond

Most likely, you will have to create these directories
first.

Feel free to use the fonts also with applications other than
TeX!  The related PFM files are provided for this purpose;
move them to the same directory as the PFBs.



Installing the TeX support files from the archive ugm.zip
---------------------------------------------------------
Unpack the ZIP archive ugm.zip in the directory <texmf>,
i.e., in root directory of the TeX file tree, where you want
to install the present collection.  Thus, all files will end
up in the appropriate directories.



Updating the filename database
------------------------------
Many TeX systems require manual updating of a "filename
database" after adding of new files.  Please, consult the
documentation of your TeX system!



Configuring your TeX system
---------------------------

The present distribution includes several font map files for
the URW Garamond fonts.  You need to configure your
TeX system so that an appropriate file will be used in fact.
The required steps depend on the particular TeX system.
Particular sets of instructions are provided below for the
following systems:

  * teTeX 2.0 and later
  * MikTeX 2.4 and later
  * VTeX/Free 8 and later

With other TeX systems (or older versions of teTeX and
MikTeX) consult the related documentation how to install an
additional font map file.  The name of the map file to be
used for Garamond is "ugm.map".  Two identical copies of
this file reside in the directories <texmf>/dvips/config and
<texmf>/fonts/map/dvips/ugm.


* Configuring teTeX 2.0+
Delete the file <texmf>/dvips/config/ugm.map, which is
not needed with a recent teTeX.  Next, issue the following
commands in a command shell:

  texhash
  updmap --enable Map ugm.map


* Configuring MikTeX 2.4+
Edit the file <texmf>\miktex\config\updmap.cfg.  (In case it
does not yet exist, create it as a new file.)  Add the line

  Map ugm.map 
  
and save the file; then execute the following commands 
in a command line window ("DOS shell"):

  initexmf -u 
  updmap 


* Configuring VTeX/Free 8+
Make VTeX read the additional font mapping file ugm.ali.
This is usually accomplished by putting an appropriate
record into each of the configuration files

  <texmf>/vtex/config/pdf.fm
and
  <texmf>/vtex/config/ps.fm

Edit these files; in each file add "ugm.ali" to the TYPE1
section:

  TYPE1 {
    ...
    ugm.ali
    }
  



Using the URW Garamond fonts with LaTeX
---------------------------------------
See the file garamond.txt, which resides in the directory
<texmf>/doc/fonts/urw.



Fontinst sources
----------------
The archive file ugmfnst.zip contains the Fontinst script
and additional mtx files which were used to create the font
metrics and virtual fonts for URW Garamond.  You need not
install this material, if you just want to _use_ the fonts
with TeX.
