New on CTAN: tikz-nfold
by CTAN Announcements 28 Mar '23

28 Mar '23

Jonathan Schulz submitted the tikz-nfold package. Version: 0.0.1 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Triple, quadruple, and n-fold paths with TikZ Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This new library adds support for n-fold paths (double, triple, quadruple, ...) in TikZ. Contrary to the approach of TikZ' /tikz/double, this works by offsetting the path instead of superimposing paths of various thicknesses, fixing some rendering issues of /tikz/double. Basic layer pgf code for offsetting Bezier curves is also provided. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/tikz-nfold The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/graphics/pgf/contrib/tikz-nfold/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

Kushagra Lakhwani submitted the KorigamiK package. Version: 1.0 License: gpl3+ Summary description: Typeset articles using KorigamiK’s document class Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I am excited to announce the release of the KorigamiK document class, a new LaTeX document class designed specifically for university or school projects and lab reports. Based on the popular article class, KorigamiK includes a range of modifications to make it more flexible for use in academic writing. It features customizable front-matter, including title, author, date, and institution, as well as support for multiple sections, subsections, and appendices. KorigamiK also includes a range of small changes designed to make it easier to use, including improved defaults for margins and font sizes, and better support for bibliographies and references. The KorigamiK class is released under the GNU GPL3+ license to promote more open source documents. It is available now on CTAN and can be installed via your TeX distribution's package manager. I hope you find the KorigamiK class useful in your academic writing, and I welcome any feedback or suggestions for future improvements.
