Boisik

Font Boisik is a serifed font (inspired by Baskerville typeface) written in MetaFont. It comprises roman and italic text fonts and math text fonts. It requires the IL2 encoding from cslatex.

Alternatively the lines 

\usepackage[IL2]{fontenc}
\usepackage{boisik}
may be replaced with 
\usepackage[OT1]{fontenc}
\renewcommand*\familydefault{bsk}
Unfortunately this disables the math support and some of the font shapes.

Font is in development and its application is not recommended in instances, where stability of typesetting is important. The font is provided “as is” without warranty of any kind. The italic font is seen to be buggy.
