This archive contains PostScript binary files for a few "decorative
initials" (also called "dropped initials") fonts, and the service
files needed in order to use these fonts with [La]TeX.
The fonts are freely usable for non-commercial use, and are a (small)
subset of the ones designed and crafted by:
Dieter Steffmann
Marburger Straße 93a
D-57223 Kreuztal (Germany)
and available under his Web page
http://www.steffmann.de/english/index.htm
(follow the link to "Fonts"). That URL states:
"You may download [the fonts] for free and use them for personal
purposes."; my own files (all but the .pfb and .afm from the following
list) are public domain.
The files included in the distribution are:
.pfb files: PostScript Font Binary files;
.afm files: Adobe Font Metric files;
.tfm files: TeX Font Metric files, for LaTeX;
.fd files: Font Description files, for LaTeX;
config files: configuration files, for dvips;
