That's curious - I'm doing my PhD at Reading! Coincidences!

That's fantastic... and packages available for Linux, too. : )

I discovered this font a few months ago, when I was searching for fonts useful for academic work that would involve the medieval period. I really am looking forward to that nebulous date in 2004 when a more full-featured version of the font will be available (with bold and bold-italic!). That's the only thing preventing me from using it as, say, my default web font. At the moment I am still using Junicode, though it doesn't work in Camino for some stupid reason. Just as a little typographical aside, is there ever going to be a Unicode-friendly, user-friendly implementation of LaTeX (I think I got it right) that is native on OS X? I really hate having to completely root through my system to install a new font (I still haven't been able to).

Unfortunately, it's ugly. Bits are too thick.
