CTAN Update: cfr-lm
by CTAN Announcements 03 Feb '15

03 Feb '15

Clea F. Rees submitted an update to the cfr-lm package. Version number: 1.5 2015-02-01 License type: lppl1.3 Summary description: Enhanced support for the Latin Modern fonts Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Corrected two typos in .fd files and made corresponding changes to typos in source -drv.tex files. In most cases, the changes will have no effect. However, in some cases, the errors might have caused inappropriate font substitutions and could cause compilation failures in unusual circumstances. I found the bug when trying to use beamer + standalone + tikz with externalisation and a particular configuration of cfr-lm. I hope this fixes it.... (I'm still not sure why this is not triggered in other cases, given that it is triggered at all.) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/fonts/cfr-lm/ More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/cfr-lm We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

New on CTAN: urcls
by CTAN Announcements 01 Feb '15

01 Feb '15

Marei Peischl submitted the urcls bundle. Version number: 1.0 License type: lppl Summary description: Bundle with beamer and scrlttr2 style for the University of Regensburg Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The bundle provides a beamer-derived class and a theme style file for the corporate design of the University of Regensburg. It also contains a scrlttr2-derived class for letters using the corporate design of the UR. Users may use the class itself (URbeamer) or use the theme in the usual way with usetheme{UR}. Examples of using both (letters and presentations) are provided as .tex & .pdf-files. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/urcls/ More information should appear at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/urcls, but apparently this page has not yet been created. So the bug in the software behind our website seems to persist. Please refer to http://texcatalogue.ctan.org/entries/urcls.html for the time being.

01 Feb '15

Christian Feuersänger submitted an update to the pgfplots package. Version number: 1.12 License type: gpl3 Summary description: Create normal/logarithmic plots in two and three dimensions. Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.12: scalability + performance - scalability: reduced TeX memory consumption for huge inline tables - scalability: lualatex allows bigger 3d graphics - scalability: lualatex now reduces compilation time for huge 3d graphics (requires pgfplotsset{compat=newest} at the time of this writing) - scalability: lualated now reduces compilation time for boxplots. 10000 input points from table: time reduced to 23% of pdflatex - fixed bug: 3d axes where all axes used log scale produced compile failure - fixed bug: axis equal did not respect disabledatascaling - fixed bug: mesh legend was confused by color input=explicit - fixed bug: colorbar style did not reset zmin/zmax - fixed bug: memory allocation in FPU consumed too much memory - fixed bug: boxplots: removed compilation error due to spurious spaces in options list - fixed bug: boxplots: now uses standard quantile estimators: has all 9 estimators of R and uses the same as in Excel as default (as of compat=1.12) - fixed bug: boxplots: sometimes failed to compute boxplot statistics for special inputs - fixed bug: boxplots: now, it sets 'mark=*' for outliers if there is no mark (compat=1.12) - fixed regression: compat=1.11 broke arcs inside of axis - new feature: ensured that arcs inside of axis make use of 'axis cs' and 'axis direction cs' automatically - new feature: ensured that (0:1) is evaluated with axis cs - fixed bug: precision of transformation cartesian to polar was too low (added atan2 to fpu) - fixed bug: z buffer caused 'mesh legend' to produce a compile error - new feature: added 'y filter/.expression={y==3 ? nan : y}' to simplify coordinate filters More details can be found in the README shipped with the package. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/graphics/pgf/contrib/pgfplots More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/pgfplots We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
