metatype1 on ctan
by Robin Fairbairns 12 Jun '04

12 Jun '04

metatype1 is the tool used to build the excellent lm fonts (there's a paper by boguslaw jackowski coming in the proceedings of the 1993 tug conference, which the tugboat team are currently working on). the authors of metatype1 have now agreed that it should appear on ctan, so i have mirrored its home site to fonts/utilities/metatype1. the directory also contains the source of an extended version of knuth's logo font, which serves as an example of the use of metatype1.

latex companion examples
by Robin Fairbairns 11 Jun '04

11 Jun '04

those of you who've already got a copy of the latex companion, second edition, may have noticed a remark (top of p14) that the examples were going to be on ctan. the arrangement was that i would install them as soon as my copy arrived. my copy took some time in the maws of the publishers' system... ... but arrived today. so, from today, there is indeed a ctan directory info/examples/tlc2, which contains files for running the examples in the book. so, even people without the book (and its accompanying cd) can now use the examples without further ado.
