Version 1.0 of the AECC fonts ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is a set of virtual fonts building, from the standard Concrete fonts, a set of almost T1 encoded fonts. The characters missing are mainly: eth, thorn, and the sami letter eng. Sometimes the � character is also missing. For the typewriter fonts, the situation is worse. My idea with these fonts is that it should be possible to use the Knuthian Concrete fonts to produce PS/PDF files even when one needs hyphenation patterns other than English. The package assumes that the underlying AE (Almost European Modern Roman) fonts have been previously installed. The package borrows the ideas and a large part of the implementation from the AE package by Lars Engebretsen. It would be nice to have a font containing the missing caracters, in order to make the layout fully T1. By the way, the name AECC fonts was chosen since the fonts are Almost European Concrete. To use the fonts, simply \usepackage{aecc}. To use bitmap versions of the characters missing in the ae fonts, \usepackage{aecompl}. Denis Roegel has constructed a separate package, aeguill, to produce guillemets built with the polish CMR fonts, WNCYR fonts, LASY fonts, or EC fonts. AECC.sty must be loaded last in order to substitute the underlying AE virtual fonts in the roman typeface only.

aecc – Almost European Concrete Roman virtual fonts
The package provides a set of virtual fonts (built from the standard Concrete fonts) providing a set of fonts that almost cover the T1 encoding.
The main characters missing, of those specified in the T1 specification are eth, thorn, and the Sami letter eng. Sometimes the £ (pound sterling) character is also missing. For the typewriter fonts, the situation is worse.
According to the author, the purpose of this package is nowadays better served by a combination of the MLTeX and ccfonts packages.
