Information on the Use of Designated Fonts in NSF Proposals The Information on the Use of Designated Fonts in NSF Proposals The National Science Foundation (NSF) has published the new NSF Proposal & Award Policies & Procedures Guide (NSF 07-140), which contains documents relating to the Foundation’s proposal and award process. Part I is comprised of NSF’s proposal preparation & submission guidelines, including the NSF Grant Proposal Guide, and Part II is comprised of the documents used to guide, manage, and monitor the award and administration of grants and cooperative agreements, including the new NSF Award & Administration Guide (previously known as the Grant Policy Manual.) The new publication supercedes all prior versions of the NSF Grant Proposal Guide and Grant Policy Manual, and can be accessed at: http://www.nsf.gov/publications/pub_summ.jsp?ods_key=nsf07140. The NSF Proposal & Award Policies & Procedures Guide applies to proposals submitted on or after June 1, 2007. One of the important changes contained in the new guidelines is the use of designated fonts in proposals submitted to NSF. Proposers are reminded that the proposal must be clear, readily legible, and conform to the following requirements: a. Use of only the approved typefaces identified below, a black font color, and a font size of 10 points or larger must be used: • For Windows users: Arial, Helvetica, Palatino Linotype, or Georgia • For Macintosh users: Arial, Helvetica, Palatino, or Georgia • For TeX users: Computer Modern A Symbol font may be used to insert Greek letters or special characters; however, the font size requirement still applies; b. No more than 6 lines within a vertical space of 1 inch; and c. Margins, in all directions, must be at least an inch. Proposers are cautioned that proposals not in conformance with this guidance may be returned without review. If you have any questions regarding the new NSF Proposal & Award Policies & Procedures Guide, please contact the Policy Office on (703) 292-8243 or by e- mail to [email protected]. .

NSF rarely provides funding support to foreign organizations. In cases where the proposer considers the foreign organization’s involvement to be essential to the project (e.g., through subawards or consultant arrangements), the proposer must explain why local support is not feasible and why the foreign organization can carry out the activity more effectively. In addition, the proposed activity must demonstrate how one or more of the following conditions have been met: . The foreign organization contributes a unique organization, facilities, geographic location and/or access to unique data resources not generally available to U.S. investigators (or which would require significant effort or time to duplicate) or other resources that are essential to the success of the proposed project; and/or .

  • „Bitstream“ Fonts
    Key to the „Bitstream“ Fonts The history of typefaces is the history of forgeries. One of the greatest forgers of the 20th century was Matthew Carter. The Bitstream website (http://www.myfonts.com) describes him as follows: Matthew Carter of United Kingdom. Born: 1937 Son of Harry Carter, Royal Designer for Industry, contemporary British type designer and ultimate craftsman, trained as a punchcutter at Enschedé by Paul Rädisch, responsible for Crosfield's typographic program in the early 1960s, Mergenthaler Linotype's house designer 1965-1981. Carter co-founded Bitstream with Mike Parker in 1981. In 1991 he left Bitstream to form Carter & Cone with Cherie Cone. In 1997 he was awarded the TDC Medal, the award from the Type Directors Club presented to those „who have made significant contributions to the life, art, and craft of typography“. Carter’s „significant contribution to the life, art, and craft of typography“ consisted of forging the Linotype typeface collection. Carter can be characterized as a split personality. On the one hand, he has designed several original typefaces. On the other hand, he has forged hundreds of fonts. The following lists reveal that ca. 90% of the „Bitstream“ fonts are forgeries of the fonts contained in the catalog „LinoTypeCollection 1987“ („Mergenthaler Type Library“), i.e. the „Bitstream“ fonts are „nefarious evil knock-off clones“ (Bruno Steinert) of fonts sold by Linotype in the mid-1980s.1 „L“ in the following lists denotes that the font is contained in the „LinoTypeCollection 1987“. In the mid-1980s, the Linotype library comprised hundreds of typefaces with a total of 1700 fonts.

You may freely copy and modify this document under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license. When distributing modified versions, please include your Latex file. Traditionally, a Latex package is loaded to provide a font or set of fonts. Table 1, adapted from the PSNFSS documentation, summarizes the commonly used Latex font packages. PSNFSS provides the default Type 1 fonts listed, excluding Computer Modern (CM), Utopia, Fourier, and Euler.

Blanks indicate package does not set font for that category. The sectsty package is useful to set the font for chapter and section headers. (The examples I've included below all use fontspec, but sectsty works with or without fontspec.) xelatex enables you to use any font on your Mac OS X or Windows system. The fontspec package loads system fonts, as shown in examples below. When loading fontspec, it reverts the main roman font to Computer Modern (actually, Latin Modern). It will, however, leave the math font alone if you use the no-math option. Thus, to set a math font, load one of the above pack- ages, then load fontspec, then set the main font again using fontspec.
