ABOUT

URW++ Core 35 Fonts

In 1999-2000, URW++ Design and Development GmbH released the Type 1 implementations of the Core 35 fonts under the GNU General Public License (GPL) and the Aladdin Ghostscript Free Public License (AFPL). In 2016, URW++ released a major Version 2.0 upgrade to the Core 35 fonts. This version is an extensive reworking of the original Core 35 fonts, with improved font outlines, and greatly extended character sets, including Cyrillic and (monotonic) Greek. Also, some font names have been changed. Version 2.0 is released in Type 1, OpenType-CFF and OpenType-TTF formats. The fonts:

• C059 (=Century Schoolbook)
• D050000L (=Zapf Dingbats)
• Nimbus Mono (=Courier New)
• Nimbus Roman (=Times New Roman)
• Nimbus Sans (=Helvetica), Nimbus Sans Narrow
• P052 (=Palatino, formerly Palladio at URW)
• URW Bookman
• URW Gothic (=Avant Garde)
• Z003 (=Zapf Calligraphic)
