Loading of the macro package xconcorde

  \usepackage{xconcorde}

makes LaTeX use ConcordeBE as the roman font family.
Whether Concorde is used with lining or oldstyle digits is
contolled by a package option.  The package option [osf]
selects oldstyle digits,

  \usepackage[osf]{xconcorde}

while normal digits are selected by default.

Optional scaling:

The Concorde fonts appear larger than many others, when used
with the same nominal size.  This may lead to problems as
far as blending with other typefaces and use of the standard
document classes are concerned.  The macro package provides
a key-value option to scale the Concorde fonts; for instance

  \usepackage[scaled=0.92]{xconcorde]

loads the Concorde fonts at 92% of their nominal size.  This
particular value makes the x-height equal to that of the
popular "Times" fonts, so that you can easily substitute
Concorde for Times.  When the value is omitted

  \usepackage[scaled]{bconcorde]

a default of 92% is used.

Typesetting math;

There are no math fonts that were designed particularly to
go with Concorde.  The best match are the `MathTime
Professional' fonts distributed by Personal TeX Inc.

The font family "pocx" has lining digits, while "pocj" has
oldstyle digits.

Available encodings are OT1, T1, TS1.  The TS1 encoded fonts
comprise only those symbols, that are part of the ISO-Adobe
character set, plus a faked Euro (\texteuro).
