The Greek fonts
The latest version of the "babel" package supports the Greek language. In
order to be able to use the "greek" option correctly someone must have
the correct fonts properly installed. The "greek" option basically uses
the fonts by K J Dryllerakis plus an outline font based on these fonts.
It also uses the the rgrsc10 font by Y. Haralambous and the Greek font
of the Malvern family. Please, note that the Malvern font does not fit
well with the others but it is included for reasons of completeness. (See
the test.ps file.) Another known problem is that for some reason the
rgrsc10 font cannot produce a "valid" tfm file so someone has to create
one from the file rgrsc10.pl This solution, however, produces some
"checksum mismatch" warnings on any previewer which should be ignored.
Where to find them
All the necessary Greek fonts reside in any of the CTAN nodes. You should be
able to find the file greek_fonts.zip which contains all necessary fonts,
source and tfm files.
