Name of contribution: renditions
Version number: v0.1
Author's name: D. P. Story
Summary description: Using the renditions package, you can create many versions, or 
  renditions, of content from the same source file.

This is a short package sets up comment environments, called renditions.
These renditions can be included or excluded according to the value of

rendition4.

  softmaker-freefont

package.

Location on CTAN: /fonts/softmaker-freefont
Summary description: Support files for SoftMaker free fonts.
License type: lppl

Announcement text: 
----------------------------------------------------------------------
In June 2009 www.freefont.de offered a beautiful handwriting font
for free download: The Softmaker Stone Handwriting.
As handwriting fonts are a quite limited resource in the LaTeX world,
i decided to create support files for this beautiful font. Therefore,
Stone Handwriting will be the starting point for the softmaker-freefont 
bundle. Other fonts will be included in future.

Supported fonts at the moment: 
Baskerville-Nova (regular + bold + italic + bold italic), 
Congress (regular + bold + italic), Delano-Caps, Flagstaff, Henderson,
Iceberg (regular + bold), Jugendstil, Old Blackletter, Stone Handwriting

License: LPPL (not the fonts themselves)

New in v1.8:

 - added support for the font family Baskerville-Nova
   (regular + bold + italic + bold italic + faked slanted + faked small caps)
