The LH fonts address the problem of the wide variety of alphabets that are written with Cyrillic-style characters. The fonts are the original basis of the set of T2* and X2 encodings that are now used when LaTeX users need to write in Cyrillic languages.

Macro support in standard LaTeX encodings is offered through the cyrillic and t2 bundles, and the package itself offers support for other (more traditional) encodings.

The fonts, in the standard T2* and X2 encodings are available in Adobe Type 1 format, in the CM-Super family of fonts.

The package also offers its own LaTeX support for OT2 encoded fonts, CM bright shaped fonts and Concrete shaped fonts.
