[tex-live] cm-super-minimal

[Norbert Preining]

Hi,

why not ask at
	debian-tex-maint at lists.debian.org
which is the appropriate place for Debian?

The Debian specific README in
	/usr/share/doc/cm-super-minimal/README.Debian
(which is the same in /usr/share/doc/cm-super/README.Debian) comes to
help:


   0. For latex, load the type1ec package and then select T1 fontenc:
        \usepackage{type1ec}
        \usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
   For tex, load the fonts with \font, see below

   BIG WARNING BIG WARNING BIG WARNING
   If you DON'T have cm-super (the full package) installed you have to use
        \usepackage[10pt]{type1ec}
   which uses only those cm-super fonts available in cm-super-minimal and
   scale those fonts for other design sizes.
   END WARNING END WARNING END WARNING


Otherwise, what will happen is that the fonts are GENERATED from the MF
sources:
