Fonts & Encodings

Colophon

This book was prepared in XML with the XLAT_EX DTD, using the BBEdit editor. It was typeset and laid out using the Ωystem on an Apple PowerBook G4 running MacOS X 10.4.6. The fonts employed are Le Monde Livre, by Jean François Porchez, for the body text; The Sans Mono Condensed, by Luc[as] de Groot, for the computer code; Mantegna Italic, by Philip Bouwsma, for the dedication; and more than a hundred other fonts, for the various examples. The list of bibliographic references was generated by BibT_EX under BibDesk; the indexes, by makeindex. The illustrations were prepared in Adobe Creative Suite. The Latin text in the dedication comes from the student song Gaudeamus Igitur and means "Where be those who ere our day graced the world we live in?"
