Arev Sans is a derivative of Bitstream Vera Sans +created by Tavmjong Bah, adding support for Greek and Cyrillic +characters. Bah also added a few variant letters that are more +appropriate for mathematics. The primary purpose for using Arev +Sans in LaTeX is presentations, particularly when using a +computer projector. In such a context, Arev Sans is quite +readable, with large x-height, "open letters", wide spacing, +and thick stems. The style is very similar to the SliTeX font +lcmss, but heavier. Arev is one of a very small number of sans- +font mathematics support packages. Others are cmbright, hvmath +and kerkis. |
