Oliver Beery submitted an update to the
fontscale
package.
Version number: 5.0.0 2026-02-17
License type: lppl1.3c
Summary description: A flexible interface for setting font sizes
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
## [v5.0.0] - 2026-02-17
### Changed
- Major update before TeX Live 2026. This update includes many changes that are backwards incompatible.
- Updated requirements:
- Now requires `l3kernel` version 2023-11-01.
- No longer incompatible with the `scalefnt` package.
- The documentation no longer uses the terms "font step" and "font scale" to describe the font size. All package features which relied on the "font step" or "font scale" have been removed or redesigned. In hindsight, I do not find these concepts to be particularly helpful for users. Moreover, this had led to large package feature bloat.
- The documentation has been completely rewritten.
- Improved performance in the package code added to the `selectfont` hook.
- Keys `<font size command>/scale` renamed to `<font size command>/size-normalsize-ratio`.
- All font size commands defined by this package now issue an error instead of a warning if used in math mode.
- Improved the warning message in `\fontscalesetup` when the lengths of the font sizes are not correctly ordered from `\tiny` to `\Huge`.
- `\currentfontsize`, `\currentfontbaselineskip`, and `\currentnormalsize` are now proper lengths instead of expandable commands. This is more convenient when performing computations.
- `\setfontsize` now has an `o`- instead of an `s`-type argument with a new functionality.
- `\printfontsizecommand` now prints the command name in `\ttfamily`.
### Removed
- Files:
- `fontscale-v3.sty` (no support for versions older than 5.0.0)
- `fontscale-code.pdf`
- Keys:
- `typographic-scale/classic-10pt`
- `typographic-scale/classic-11pt`
- `typographic-scale/classic-12pt`
- `typographic-scale/classic-10bp`
- `typographic-scale/classic-11bp`
- `typographic-scale/classic-12bp`
- `typographic-scale/classic-10dd`
- `typographic-scale/classic-11dd`
- `typographic-scale/classic-12dd`
- `typographic-scale/classic-10nd`
- `typographic-scale/classic-11nd`
- `typographic-scale/classic-12nd`
- `classic-10pt`
- `classic-11pt`
- `classic-12pt`
- `classic-10bp`
- `classic-11bp`
- `classic-12bp`
- `classic-10dd`
- `classic-11dd`
- `classic-12dd`
- `classic-10nd`
- `classic-11nd`
- `classic-12nd`
- `magscale` (lacks use case)
- Commands:
- `\currentfontstep`, `\currentfontscale`
- `\setfontstep`, `\setfontscale`
- `\scalefont` (redundant with `\setfontsize` and `\currentfontsize`)
- `\setfontsizebaselineskip` (redundant with `\setfontsize`)
- `\setfontbaselineskip` `s`-type argument (redundant with
`\currentfontbaselineskip`)
- `\printfontsizeparameters`, `\printallfontsizeparameters`
- Variables:
- `\c_fontscale_<font size command>_step_fp`
- `\c_fontscale_normalsize_scale_fp`
- `\l_fontscale_<font size command>_scale_fp`
- `\l_fontscale_step_fp`, `\l_fontscale_scale_fp`
### Added
- Keys:
- `typographic-scale/classic`
- `classic`
- `classic/base`
- `classic/point`
- `\stepfontsize`

Summary description: LaTeX commands for enclosing characters in circles, squares, diamonds, or brackets
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
In this update, the following points are changed.
1. \period command was deleted. It has never been used since the
significance of existence had been absolutely questionable.
I finally decided to delete it.
2. New package option tsumesuji was added.
3. New command \zenkakuhabafixer was added.
This command is similar to the \ichimoji command, but
the vertical scaling is different.
For further explanation for the new option and command,
please refer to the package documentation.
