4 To use the proper font for PDF rendering you need to install the necessary typefaces into your TeX distribution.
6 ## Installing Open Sans for TeXLive/MacTeX (> 2011)
8 * `tlmgr install opensans` (with `sudo`, if applicable)
9 * Or, on MacTeX, use the _TeX Live Utility_ to search for 'opensans'
12 ## Installing Open Sans manually
14 1. Find your texmf directory: `kpsewhich -var-value TEXMFHOME`
15 2. Copy the font folders from the `fonts/opensans` directory in the repository to the respective folders your texmf folder. Be careful not to replace any existing contents in there.
16 3. Run `mktexlsr` to refresh the file name database and make TEX aware of the new files. (You _may_ need `sudo` here.)
17 4. Run `updmap --enable Map=opensans.map` to make `Dvips`, `dvipdf` and `pdfTEX` aware of the new fonts.
20 Now you can use `make pdf` to render a PDF using the new fonts.
22 You can find further information on Open Sans in the file `fonts/opensans/doc/fonts/opensans/opensans.pdf` and here: <http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/opensans/>
