      The well-known Euler math fonts are suitable for typsetting math
      in conjunction with a variety of text fonts which do not provide
      math character sets of their own.  Euler-VM is a set of
      <em>virtual</em> math fonts based on Euler and CM.  This
      approach has several advantages over immediately using the
      <em>real</em> Euler fonts: Most noticeably, less TeX
      resources are consumed, the quality of various math symbols is
      improved and a usable \hslash symbol can be provided.  The
      virtual fonts are accompanied by a LaTeX package which makes
      them easy to use, particularly in conjunction with Type1
      PostScript text fonts. They are compatible with <xref
      refid="amsmath">amsmath</xref>. A package option allows the
      fonts to be loaded at 95% of their nominal size, thus blending
      better with certain text fonts, e.g., Minion.
