On Thu, 8 May 2008, Staszek Wawrykiewicz submitted the new font package
cyklop
to CTAN.
> Font: Cyklop
> Author: Janusz Marian Nowacki, Grudziadz, Poland
> Version: 0.9
> Date: May 2008
> Licence: GUST Font License
> Downloads: http://www.gust.org.pl/projects/e-foundry
> Location on CTAN: fonts/cyklop
>
> The Cyclop typeface was designed in the 1920s at the workshop of Warsaw
> type foundry "Odlewnia Czcionek J. Idzkowski i S-ka". This sans serif
> typeface has a highly modulated stroke so it has high typographic
> contrast. The vertical stems are much heavier then horizontal ones.
> Most characters have thin rectangles as additional counters giving the
> unique shape of the characters.
>
> The font was generated using the Metatype1 package. Then the original
> set of characters was completed by adding the full set of accented
> letters and characters of the modern Latin alphabets (including
> Vietnamese).
>
> The fonts are distributed in the Type1 and OpenType formats along with the
> files necessary for use these fonts in TeX and LaTeX including
> encoding definition files: T1 (ec), T5 (Vietnamese), OT4, QX, texnansi
> and nonstandard ones (IL2 for Czech fonts).
