Bob Tennent submitted the clearsans package. Version date: 2014-03-16 License type: apache2 Summary description: Clear Sans fonts with LaTeX support Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Clear Sans was designed by Daniel Ratighan at Monotype under the direction of the User Experience team at Intel’s Open Source Technology Center. Clear Sans is available in three weights (regular, medium, and bold) with corresponding italics, plus light and thin upright (without italics). Clear Sans has minimized, unambiguous characters and slightly narrow proportions, making it ideal for UI design. Its strong, recognizable forms avoid distracting ambiguity, making Clear Sans comfortable for reading short UI labels and long passages in both screen and print. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/fonts/clearsans/ More information will appear later at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/clearsans We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

CTAN update: babel
by CTAN Announcements 16 Mar '14

16 Mar '14

Javier Bezos submitted an update to the babel package. Version number: 3.9i License type: lppl1.3 Summary description: Multilingual support for Plain TeX or LaTeX. Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- What's new ~~~~~~~~~~ - With LuaTeX, spaces are not ignored after shorthands and closing braces can follow them. - extlatin and friends are deprecated. For the logos (see below) a new macro is used if necessary (ensureascii), so extlatin is not used in the core any more. - abelensure can be used to wrap caption texts with foreignlanguage, as well as to enforce an encoding. - abeltags is just for syntactical sugar, and defines macros with short names to switch the language (eg, extdeu and deu). - Bug fixed -- The logos TeX and LaTeX were typeset in a wrong font in some cases. Now if a non-ASCII font is not loaded they are not redefined at all. - Partial compatibility with languages named as lang@ instead of l@ (plain etex/xetex/luatex). - Bug fixed -- bl@allowhyphens is now ignored in vertical mode. - Bug fixed -- Loops with @for failed in Plain. - Bug fixed -- A few codes in xetex where wrong when loading patterns. - Bug fixed -- With strings=encoded captions were left unchanged in MakeUppercase/MakeLowercase. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/required/babel/base More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/babel We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

New on CTAN: playfair
by CTAN Announcements 16 Mar '14

16 Mar '14

Bob Tennent submitted the playfair package. Version date: 2014-03-14 License type: ofl Summary description: Playfair Display fonts with LaTeX support Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Playfair Display is well suited for titling and headlines. It has an extra large x-height and short descenders. It can be set with no leading if space is tight, for instance in news headlines, or for stylistic effect in titles. Capitals are extra short, and only very slightly heavier than the lowercase characters. This helps achieve a more even typographical colour when typesetting proper nouns and initialisms. The designer is Claus Eggers Sørensen. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/fonts/playfair/ More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/playfair We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
