by CTAN Announcements 15 Feb '10

15 Feb '10

On Mon, 15 Feb 2010 Josef Kleber submitted an update to the installfont package. Location on CTAN: /support/installfont Summary description: A bash script for installing a Postscript Type1 font family. License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- With this script you can install a Postscript Type1 font family (at least the four basic cuts + (faked) small caps + faked slanted, but no expert fonts) for using it with LaTeX (MiKTeX). The script will rename the fonts automatically (optinal) or will otherwise expect the *.pfb and *.afm files named in the Karl Berry scheme (e.g. 5bbr8a.pfb). Just adapt the script variables to your fonts and directories. After running it, you should have a working font installation in your local TeX tree. License: LPPL New in v1.2: - added the options scaled and leading to the created style file to scale the font for better matching with other fonts and to increase the leading between lines ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/support/installfont .

CTAN Update: biblatex-dw
by CTAN Announcements 15 Feb '10

15 Feb '10

On Mon, 15 Feb 2010 Dominik Wassenhoven submitted an update to the biblatex-dw package, a small collection of styles for the biblatex package. It was designed for citations in the humanities and offers some features that are not provided by the standard biblatex styles. Biblatex-dw is dependent on biblatex (at least version 0.8) and cannot be used without it. Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/exptl/biblatex-contrib/biblatex-dw/ Summary description: Humanities styles for biblatex License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 1.2o ====================================================== Note that this version is NOT COMPATIBLE WITH BIBLATEX 0.9! ====================================================== - BUGFIX: When using the options 'xref=true' and 'useeditor=false', the editor was not printed in the bibliography. This is now fixed. Also, some bugs regarding the xref functionality in citations could be fixed. - BUGFIX: The editors in @incollection, @inproceedings and @inreference entries were printed using the name format 'sortname' ('Lastname, Firstname') where it should have been the name format 'byeditor' ('Firstname Lastname'). This is now fixed. - New option 'omiteditor': If one uses 'useeditor=false' and 'omiteditor=true', the editor in citations will be omitted. The same applies to the xref functionality in the bibliography. With 'useeditor=true', this option has no effect. The standard for this option is 'false'. - The limitation regarding the combination of 'xref=true', 'edbyidem=true' and 'useeditor=false' is no longer valid. That means, it is not necessary to have the editor in the child entry as well in order to get an 'idem' string. - Extended the documentation. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/exptl/biblatex-contrib/biblatex-dw/ .
