[OS X TeX] Bera Sans

Hello

I've recently installed the free Bera fonts from CTAN (based on the 
Vera family, if you're familiar with it) and been very happy with them. 
They are a family of roman, sans serif, and typewriter fonts -- there 
is a sample here:
<http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/bera/bera.pdf>

I recall a couple of discussions in times past about blending various 
combinations of roman/sans fonts -- specifically Palatino has been a 
bit of a funny one, and I think Bera Sans does a better job with that 
than any other previously proposed candidate. I've put a small sample 
of the two here:
<http://www.mecheng.adelaide.edu.au/~will/tex/bera>

The fonts may be installed from:
<http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/bera/>

If the size isn't too great, this might be a good thing to add to 
gwTeX. (Maybe a separate bundle of "extra fonts" should be created, 
combining Fourier, Latin Modern, Bera, and the others.)

Regards,

Will Robertson
