Variants and similar typefaces

URW Chancery L by URW (Unternehmensberatung Rubow Weber — from the founders' names[3] now retitled URW++) provides a GPL-ed clone of the font. An extended version TeX Gyre Chorus is another similar typeface based on the URW Chancery L font. This typeface is released in formats compatible with LaTeX as well as with modern OpenType compatible systems.
