FdSymbol is a math symbol font, designed as a companion to the Fedra family by Typotheque, but it might also fit other contemporary typefaces.

Build Status

Usage

To use this font in LaTeX, include

\usepackage{fdsymbol}

in the preamble of your LaTeX document. See the PDF documentation for the details.

If you are interested in a full integration with Fedra Serif Pro, take a look at the fedraserif package.

Installation

Building the fonts requires Metafont (>=2.718281), FontForge (>=20110222) and Python 2.7 with the fontforge module enabled.

Rebuilding the FontForge source files from the Metafont sources additionally requires MetaPost (>=1.902) and mf2pt1 (>= 2.5).

To install the fonts, the accompanying LaTeX package and the documentation in your home texmf tree, run:

make install

If you want to use a different texmf tree, you can specify it using the variable TEXMFDIR:

make install TEXMFDIR=/usr/local/texlive/texmf-local

Afterwards, you may need to regenerate the file database:

texhash

Finally, you need to activate the map file:

updmap --enable Map=fdsymbol.map

For a system-wide installation, replace updmap by updmap-sys.
