This package was debianized by Florent Rougon on Tue, 27 Jan 2004 20:12:21 +0100. The following TeX Live packages were downloaded from http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/systems/texlive/tlnet/archive/ and merged into one orig.tar.gz file: lm.tar.xz lm.doc.tar.xz lm-math.tar.xz lm-math.doc.tar.xz Upstream work ------------- The upstream README-Latin-Modern.txt file says: Font: The Latin Modern Family of Fonts Designer (Computer Modern Family of Fonts): Donald E. Knuth Author: Bogus\l{}aw Jackowski and Janusz M. Nowacki Version: 2.003 Date: 16 IX 2009 Downloads: http://www.gust.org.pl/projects/e-foundry/latin-modern/ License: % Copyright 2003--2009 by B.

Nowacki. % This work consists of the files listed in the MANIFEST.txt file. [...] The current LM package contains the most recent version of the Latin Modern family of fonts in the PostScript Type 1 and OpenType format. The fonts are based on Donald E. Knuth's Computer Modern fonts in the PostScript Type 1 format, released into public domain by the American Mathematical Society (for the history of the outline version of the CM fonts see, e.g., http://www.math.utah.edu/~beebe/fonts/bluesky.html ). The project is supported by TeX users groups: CSTUG, DANTE eV, GUST, GUTenberg, NTG, and TUG. The current README-Latin-Modern-Math.txt says License: % Copyright 2012--2014 for the Latin Modern math extensions by B. Jackowski, % P. Strzelczyk and P. Pianowski (on behalf of TeX Users Groups). % % This work can be freely used and distributed under % the GUST Font License (GFL -- see GUST-FONT-LICENSE.txt) % which is actually an instance of the LaTeX Project Public License % (LPPL -- see http://www.latex-project.org/lppl.txt). % % This work has the maintenance status "maintained".

Appendix A -- Licensing terms for the Computer Modern fonts in Type 1 format on which the Latin Modern fonts are based. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Running t1disasm (from the t1utils package) on /usr/share/texmf/fonts/type1/bluesky/cm/*.pfb and /usr/share/texmf/fonts/type1/bluesky/cmextra/*.pfb yields: Copyright (C) 1997 American Mathematical Society. All Rights Reserved [ Florent Rougon's note: well, for /usr/share/texmf/fonts/type1/bluesky/cm/cmb{,sy}10.pfb, you will only get one space between "Society." and "All" (with tetex-extra 2.0.2-5.1). ;-) ] The precise distribution conditions for these fonts can be found in /usr/share/doc/texmf/fonts/bluesky/README from the tetex-doc package. I will duplicate here the relevant excerpt for your convenience: The PostScript Type 1 implementation of the Computer Modern fonts 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.
