CTAN update: xpinyin
by CTAN Announcements via ctan-ann 30 Sep '26

30 Sep '26

Liam Huang submitted an update to the xpinyin package. Version: 3.2 2026-09-27 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Automatically add pinyin to Chinese characters Announcement text: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- xpinyin v3.2 brings new commands for querying pinyin data, broader input support, updated Unicode data, and several bug fixes. NEW FEATURES - `\disablepinyin` now has a starred form that also covers the `\xpinyin` command itself. (#265) - Four new commands `\xpinyinvalue`, `\xpinyininitial`, `\xpinyinshengmu`, and `\xpinyinyunmu` for querying the pronunciation of individual characters, useful for Chinese index grouping and sorting; the data table is loaded on demand via the `query` option. (#550) - Pinyin arguments now accept `ü`/`Ü` directly, equivalent to the existing `v`/`V` notation. Previously `\pinyin{nü3}` produced the literal text `nü3` under XeTeX, and caused an error under pdfTeX with `CJKutf8`. (#1069) BUG FIXES - When xeCJK's `AutoFallBack` has switched to a fallback font, the box used for width measurement no longer reselects the main font, fixing ruby text being compressed to an incorrect width. (#997) - `\setpinyin` now also updates the query table for characters not in the built-in database; previously only the ruby table was updated while `\xpinyinvalue` still reported "no pronunciation". (PR #1051) - `\setpinyin` now strips the trailing `5` (neutral tone marker) when storing to the query table, consistent with the convention that the query table omits the digit for neutral tone; previously the `none` form returned `shi5` instead of `shi`. (PR #1051) OTHER CHANGES - Pinyin data updated to Unicode 18.0 Unihan (v3.1 used 14.0), adding pronunciations for about 3,000 more characters; the preferred reading of about 300 characters has changed accordingly, mostly corrections to the current standard pronunciation, e.g. "绩" changed from `jī` to `jì`. The characters "子", "們", "啊", "啦", and "哇" retain their original neutral-tone readings. Use `\setpinyin` to override when needed. - Added standalone regression tests and integrated version-consistency checks for tag-based release builds. This only affects the test and release workflow, not the package behavior.

FYP submitted the mpformulation package. Version: 2.0 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Typesetting mathematical programs (optimization models) Announcement text: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- mpformulation typesets mathematical programs (linear, integer and nonlinear optimization models) the way they appear in operations research journals: a named objective, a "subject to" line, and one constraint per line with its quantifier (for all i in I) and an equation number. Main features: - "subject to" and the final period of the model are added automatically; - numbering per constraint, per model with sub-numbers (1a, 1b, ...), or a single number for the whole model; labels for the model number and the model name; - constraints too wide for the line, e.g. in two-column journals, are reorganized automatically: the indent shrinks, the quantifier is broken at its commas or moved below, and optional break points can be given in long expressions and objectives; - optional alignment of the constraints on their relation symbol, and left-aligned quantifiers in a common column; - no page break after the objective or "subject to", nor before the last constraint. The package is configured with key-value options, globally or per model. The manual introduces each feature with an example. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/mpformulation More information is at https://ctan.org/pkg/mpformulation -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.

CTAN update: monoref
by CTAN Announcements 30 Sep '26

30 Sep '26

Srikanth Mohankumar submitted an update to the monoref package. Version: 1.4 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Single-pass cross-references, page totals, TOC and citations for LuaLaTeX Announcement text: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 1.4 adds single-run numbered citations: \cite against a hand-written thebibliography (or an existing BibTeX .bbl) resolves in the same single LuaLaTeX run, including forward citations, multi-key lists and the optional note; natbib/cite/biblatex are detected and left untouched. The load order of monoref and hyperref no longer matters, and the flush phase now warns when a resolved value is wider than its reserved slot. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/luatex/latex/monoref More information is at https://ctan.org/pkg/monoref -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.

Sikai Yang submitted the impe-framework package. Version: 1.0.1 License: mit Summary description: A XeLaTeX framework for building documents from reusable components Announcement text: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tired of bloated, repetitive preambles? IMPE offers a simpler, more modular way to build XeLaTeX documents. Instead of wiring layouts, fonts, and optional features together by hand in every document, IMPE brings them behind a small set of common interfaces and ready-to-use document classes. Simple documents can stay simple, while more specialized typesetting—including multilingual and script-specific work—can be added when needed. This is the first CTAN release of IMPE. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/xetex/latex/impe-framework More information is at https://ctan.org/pkg/impe-framework -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.

Alain Stalder submitted an update to the cmgraded package. Version: 1.0.4 2026-09-28 License: ofl lppl1.3c Summary description: Classic LaTeX look and feel in different grades of blackness Announcement text: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This release only improves behavior for a feature that is not officially supported by the package, namely handling of Type 1 *text* fonts, hence mostly relevant for pdfLaTeX: Some characters like curly braces were mapped to ungraded characters from different fonts; this has now been improved, search for "OMS" in cmgraded.sty for the gory details. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/fonts/cmgraded More information is at https://ctan.org/pkg/cmgraded -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.
