Summary description:  A late medieval OpenType cursive font

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 Aboensis is a 15th century paleographical OpenType/PS cursive font.
 It is based on Codex Aboensis that is a law book written in Sweden
 in the 1430s. It is intended for emulating late medieval manuscripts.

 In addition to normal letters the font has a large number of
 abbreviation sigla and two sets of initials: Lombardic and cursive.
 There is also support for writing two-colored initials and capitals.

 The package has a style file that helps in using the advanced
 features of the font.
