Summary description:  A late medieval OpenType textura font

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

 Missaali is an OpenType/PS textura font that is based on the font
 that German printer Bartholomew Ghotan used in the late 15th century
 to print missals. It is intended to be used as a black letter display
 font and for emulating late medieval manuscripts.

 In addition to the basic textura letters, the font contains a large
 number of abbreviation sigla as well as a set of Lombardic initials.

 The package contains also a style file for using XeLaTeX to create
 the look of large 15th century printed books, such as Bibles,
 psalters, and missals.
