    Summary description: Tools to simplify using fonts (especially TT/OTF ones)

    Announcement text: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Changes in this version:

    - generated style files use "figureversions" instead of (deprecated) "fontaxes".
    - when generating math fonts (experimental!), the script and scriptscript fonts
    are by default loaded at somewhat bigger size than Latex's standard 70% and
    50%, for better readability.
    - a few minor bug fixes and documentation updates
