The chess fonts gallery

Ulrike Fischer

June 6, 2006

I list here every font I installed up to now, along with all names needed (the internal fontname,the name used in TeX), and the needed encoding vector. With the exception of the originalfont skak all are type1 fonts mostly converted from true type fonts.

The colored boards are made with the encoding LSB1, LSB2 and LSB3 described in thedocumentation of the package chessfss.

The fonts lucena and skaknew also shows an example of an extended encoding.

Alphasource: http://www.enpassant.dk/chess/downl/alpha.zipauthor: Eric Bentzencharacters: figurine and board symbols, the font also has black figurines. I decided

to put them under the fontshape (not fontseries!) bl. The boardfontdoesn’t have a square character, so you should redefine\WhiteEmptySquare or \cfss@WhiteEmptySquare to something sensefulbefore using this font (or ignore the messages about the missing 0).

the notation of the board to be misplaced, one has to scaled it down inchessfss.cfg:\DeclareFontShape{LSB}{skak-k6}{m}{n}
