Garamond for LaTeX in CrunchBang/Debian Wheezy

Quite straightforward operations, and a beautiful font for your thesis/book!
  • install the mathdesign package for LaTeX:
$ sudo apt-get install texlive-font-extra

At this point you could already start using a more elegant font:
\usepackage[osf]{mathpazo}

(someone suggested also another one: \usepackage[t1]{libertine}, didn't work for me, though)

But our quest is still toward Garamond (ok, urw-garamond)!
$ wget http://tug.org/fonts/getnonfreefonts/install-getnonfreefonts
$ sudo texlua install-getnonfreefonts
  • download and install at system level all the fonts:
$ sudo getnonfreefonts-sys -a
  • add in the .tex file the right package references:
\usepackage[urw-garamond]{mathdesign}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}


That's all!
