Loading of the macro package frutigernext.sty, i.e.,

  \usepackage{frutigernext}

makes LaTeX use Linotype Frutiger Next as the default sans
serif font family.

|  Notice that Frutiger Next is supported with T1 (european)
|  and TS1 (textcompanion) encoding only, so you should
|  issue the commands
|
|    \usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
|    \usepackage{textcomp}
|
|  in the document preamble.  The obsolete OT1 encoding,
|  which is still the default with LaTeX, is _not_
|  supported.


Optional Scaling:

The package provides a key-value option to scale the
Frutiger Next fonts.  This may be useful to improve the
blending with other typefaces.  For instance,

  \usepackage[scaled=0.90]{frutigernext}

scales the Frutiger Next fonts to 90% of their nominal size.
