OldStandard – OldStandard fonts with LaTeX support

Old Standard is designed to reproduce the actual printing style of the early 20^th century, reviving a specific type of Modern (classicist) style of serif typefaces, very commonly used in various editions of the late 19^th and early 20^th century, but almost completely abandoned later.

The font supports typesetting of Old and Middle English, Old Icelandic, Cyrillic (with historical characters, extensions for Old Slavonic and localised forms), Gothic transliterations, critical editions of Classical Greek and Latin, and many more.

This package works with TeX engines that directly support OpenType features, such as XeTeX and LuaTeX, as well as traditional engines such as TeX and pdfTeX.
