Summary description: Support for the Stone Sans Phonetic font
Announcement text:
Stone Sans is a humanist sans-serif font, and Stone Sans Phonetic is a companion font for the International Phonetic Alphabet -- one of the first professionally-designed IPA fonts, and still one of the best. Because these beautiful fonts predate Unicode, Stone Sans Phonetic uses an idiosyncratic encoding that makes it hard to use. This package overcomes that limitation, and lets you use the two in XeLaTeX as if they were a single Unicode font with good IPA support. (The package does not contain the fonts themselves, which must be purchased separately.)
The package's Catalogue entry can be viewed at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/stoneipa The package's files themselves can be inspected at http://mirror.ctan.org/fonts/stoneipa
Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Erik Braun
