Background
This font was designed in the \‘twenties and the \‘thirties of XX century by a Polish graphic artist and a typographer Adam P�?tawski. It was widely used by Polish printing houses as long as metal types were in use (until ca the \‘sixties).
The electronic replica of Antykwa P�?tawskiego was prepared by Bogus?aw Jackowski, Janusz M. Nowacki and Piotr Strzelczyk (JNS TEAM) and released during the meeting of the Polish TeX Users Group (GUST) (Bachotek, Poland, April-May, 2000) as a preliminary version.
The main source of Antykwa P�?tawskiego were printouts of metal types. Janusz M. Nowacki programmed glyphs in METATYPE1 using tools prepared by Bogus?aw Jackowski and Piotr Strzelczyk. The tools make use of METAPOST, AWK, TeX, Type 1 utilities, Ghostscript, and perl. A lot of testing and tuning was carried out in the BOP firm.
The current version of Antykwa P�?tawskiego is meant for bold people, primarily for testing purposes.
