(description
"The PSNFSS collection includes a set of files that provide a complete
working setup of the LaTeX font selection scheme (NFSS2) for use with common
PostScript fonts. It covers the so-called \"Base\" fonts (which are built
into any Level 2 PostScript printing device and the Ghostscript interpreter)
and a number of free fonts. It provides font definition files, macros and
font metrics. The bundle as a whole is part of the LaTeX required set of
packages.")
PostScript fonts. The base set of text fonts covered by PSNFSS includes the
AvantGarde, Bookman, Courier, Helvetica, New Century Schoolbook, Palatino,
Symbol, Times Roman and Zapf Dingbats fonts. In addition, the fonts Bitstream
Charter and Adobe Utopia are covered. Separate packages are provided to load
each font for use as the main text font. The package @code{helvet} allows
Helvetica to be loaded with its size scaled to something more appropriate for
use as a Sans-Serif font to match Times, while @code{pifont} provides the
means to select single glyphs from symbol fonts. The bundle as a whole is
part of the LaTeX required set of packages.")
