- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
The CM-LGC package contains Type 1 fonts converted from METAFONT sources of
the Computer Modern font families. The following encodings are supported:
T1, T2A (Cyrillic), LGR (Greek) and TS1. However, pfb files itself are in
standard (non-TeX) encodings, so that they are suitable for any WYSIWYG
application. The Greek fonts (based on the CB Greek package) provides
type 1 versions for Greek Computer Modern family. The package includes also
Unicode virtual fonts for use with Omega/Lambda.

cm-lgc – Type 1 CM-based fonts for Latin, Greek and Cyrillic
The fonts are converted from METAFONT sources of the Computer Modern font families, using textrace. Supported encodings are: T1 (Latin), T2A (Cyrillic), LGR (Greek) and TS1. The package also includes Unicode virtual fonts for use with Omega.
The font set is not a replacement for any of the other Computer Modern-based font sets (for example, cm-super for Latin and Cyrillic, or cbgreek for Greek), since it is available at a single size only; it offers a compact set for ‘general’ working. The fonts themselves are encoded to external standards, and virtual fonts are provided for use with TeX.
