kpfonts-otf – OTF version of the Kp-fonts
This bundle provides OpenType versions of the Type1 Kp-fonts designed by Christophe Caignaert. It is usable with LuaTeX or XeTeX engines only.
It consists of sixteen Text fonts (eight Serif, four Sans-Serif, four Monotype) and six Math fonts.
Serif and Sans-Serif families have small caps available in two sizes (SmallCaps and PetitesCaps), upper and lowercase digits, real superscripts and subscripts; ancient ligatures (ct and st), ancient long-s and a long-tailed capital Q are available via font features.
Math fonts cover all usual symbols including AMS’; a full list of available symbols is provided, see the ‘List of glyphs’.
