by CTAN Announcements 15 Jul '10

15 Jul '10

On Thu, 15 Jul 2010, Hans-Martin Münch submitted an update to the undolabl package. Summary description: This package allows to override existing labels, especially automatically generated ones. License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Updated to the recent code version of Ulrich Diez WARNING: Since version 1.0d [2010/07/15] the undonewlabel command takes only one argument, undonewlabel{<label name>}, instead of two, undonewlabel{<label name>}{on@line}. Packages or documents, which used older versions of the undolabl package, must be updated by removing the second argument of undonewlabel, i. e. the {on@line}. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/undolabl/ . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/info/?id=undolabl (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

the daemon cries to an increasingly weary admin: > The following information was provided by the package's contributor. > > Name of contribution: pgfplots > Author's name: Christian Feuersanger > Location on CTAN: graphics/pgf/contrib/pgfplots/ > Summary description: pgfplots - Create normal/logarithmic plots in two > and three dimensions for LaTeX. > License type: gpl > > Announcement text given by the package's contributor: > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > Version 1.4 contains several new features, mostly work on details. > It fixes many bugs and provides the following improvements: > > - Added support for detached legends and detached colorbars > - ybar (and similar plots) can now be mixed with other plot types > like line plots. > - improved legend formatting > - added 'restrict x to domain*' which cups coordinates outside of a > specified domain (same for y and z) > - Added support for linear regression > - Inline tables, > - Lots of bug fixes > > The next version will make a greater step when it is stable. ;-) thanks for the upload; i have installed the files and updated the catalogue repository. > Users may view the package catalogue entry at > http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/pgfplots.html > or they may browse the package directory at > http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/graphics/pgf/contrib/pgfplots/ the catalogue entry has hardly changed, and the revised version won't appear on the web until some time tonight.

i'm finally close to catching up with the daemon. this time he's written: > The following information was provided by the package's contributor. > > Name of contribution: baskervaldadf > Author's name: Clea F. Rees > Location on CTAN: fonts/baskervaldadf/ > Summary description: Baskervald ADF fonts collection in ps type 1 > format with TeX/LaTeX support. > License type: other-free > > Announcement text given by the package's contributor: > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > Baskervald ADF is a serif family with lining figures designed as a > substitute for Baskerville. The family currently includes upright and > italic or oblique shapes in each of regular, bold and heavy > weights. All fonts include the slashed zero and additional > non-standard ligatures. The support package renames them according to > the Karl Berry fontname scheme and defines two families. One of these > primarily provides access to the standard or default characters > while the other supports additional ligatures. The included package > files provide access to these features in LaTeX as explained in the > baskervaldadf.pdf. thanks for the upload: i have installed the new files, and created an entry in the catalogue repository for the package. > Users may view the package catalogue entry at > http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/baskervaldadf.html > or they may browse the package directory at > http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/fonts/baskervaldadf/ the catalogue entry won't appear on the web until some time tonight.

CTAN update: cfr-lm
by CTAN Announcements 14 Jul '10

14 Jul '10

oh dear, that poor old daemon: > The following information was provided by the package's contributor. > > Name of contribution: cfr-lm > Author's name: Clea F. Rees > Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/cfr-lm > Summary description: Enhanced support for the Latin Modern fonts. > License type: lppl > > Announcement text given by the package's contributor: > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > This is a very minor update to ensure that encoding files are > unique. The map file and manifest.txt are changed accordingly. > > The package supports a number of features of the Latin Modern fonts > which are not easily accessible via the default (La)TeX support > provided in the official distribution. In particular, the package > supports the use of the various styles of digits available, small-caps > and upright italic shapes, and alternative weights and widths. It > also supports variable width typewriter and the quotation > font. Version 2.004 of the Latin Modern fonts is supported. > > By default, the package uses proportional oldstyle digits and variable > width typewriter but this can be changed by passing appropriate > options to the package. The package also supports using e.g. different > styles of digits within a document so it is possible to use > proportional oldstyle digits by default, say, but tabular lining > digits within a particular table. See the README for details. > > The package requires the official Latin Modern distribution, including > its (La)TeX support. The package relies on the availability of both > the fonts themselves and the official font support files. The package > also makes use of the nfssext-cfr package. > > Only the T1 and TS1 encodings are supported for text fonts. The set up > of fonts for mathematics is identical to that provided by Latin > Modern. thanks for the upload; i have installed the files (and done a bit of touching-up work on the catalogue repository entry ... which wasn't strictly necessary). > Users may view the package catalogue entry at > http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/cfr-lm.html > or they may browse the package directory at > http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/cfr-lm/ the catalogue entry on the web will change overnight. nothing significant, just editorial work on my previous workding.

the daemon is staggering slightly with the weight of updates ahead of the tex live freeze, but it still managed: > The following information was provided by the package's contributor. > > Name of contribution: fontspec > Author's name: Will Robertson > Location on CTAN: contrib/latex/fontspec > Summary description: Advanced font selection in XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX. > License type: lppl > > Announcement text given by the package's contributor: > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > Just when I thought the final release for TeX Live 2010 was done, a > couple more issues arose. This time for sure; version v2.0b brings: > > * Improved examples in the documentation, with fewer proprietary fonts > * All font examples are included as separate images on CTAN, so the > manual can be compiled (with pdfLaTeX) by anyone, anywhere > * LuaLaTeX fixes for the StylisticSet and Annotation features > * New OpenType feature `CharacterVariant` now supported > * Minor change: `Ligatures=Historical` is now `Ligatures=Historic` > for consistency thanks for the upload; i have installed the package and updated the catalogue repository. > Users may view the package catalogue entry at > http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/fontspec.html > or they may browse the package directory at > http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/contrib/latex/fontspec the catalogue entry on the web will change, somewhat, overnight.
