Summary description: TFM subfonts files for using Chinese Fonts in 8-bit TeX
License type: lppl

Announcement text: 
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The new version of this package includes the following update:

- in order not to mess up TeXLive's map files,  now font map lines are loaded 
runtime through pdfTeX primitives and 
DVIPDFMx specials. 
- Since HTH kindly applied a ttc support patch to pdfTeX, now simsun.ttf is 
renamed to simsun.ttc in the map lines so there is 
no need for the user to break their ttc fonts manually. Everything should work 
right out of the box.
- a new script, CTeXFonts.lua is included into the scripts directory. This 
enables the users to convert Chinese TTF files into 
Type1 subfonts for dvips and dvipdfm.
