New on CTAN: playfair
by CTAN Announcements 16 Mar '14

16 Mar '14

Bob Tennent submitted the playfair package. Version date: 2014-03-14 License type: ofl Summary description: Playfair Display fonts with LaTeX support Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Playfair Display is well suited for titling and headlines. It has an extra large x-height and short descenders. It can be set with no leading if space is tight, for instance in news headlines, or for stylistic effect in titles. Capitals are extra short, and only very slightly heavier than the lowercase characters. This helps achieve a more even typographical colour when typesetting proper nouns and initialisms. The designer is Claus Eggers Sørensen. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/fonts/playfair/ More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/playfair We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

CTAN Update: chemnum
by CTAN Announcements 13 Mar '14

13 Mar '14

Clemens Niederberger submitted an update to the chemnum package. Version number: 1.0 License type: lppl Summary description: A method of numbering chemical compounds Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This is version 1.0 of chemnum. For this update the package has been rewritten from scratch. There are various changes some of which will break existing documents. (I have struggled with this decision for a while but then chemnum /has/ been in an experimental stage before, so...). While the new version undoubtedly has new bugs its syntax won't change anymore. So at least from the perspective of a user v1.0 is supposed to be stable :) Some of the changes have already been announced here: http://www.mychemistry.eu/2014/01/chemnum-v1-0-release-candidate/ For all changes please refer to the package manual. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/chemnum/ More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/chemnum We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
