CTAN Update: anyfontsize package update for LaTeX
by CTAN Announcements 23 Nov '07

23 Nov '07

On Thu, 22 Nov 2007 at 13:09 +0100, Péter Szabó submitted a bugfix to the anyfontsize package. The package allows the to user select any font size (via e.g. <tt>fontsize{...}{...}selectfont</tt>), even those sizes that are not listed in the .fd file. If such a size is requested, LaTeX will search for and select the nearest listed size; anyfontsize will then scale the font to the size actually requested. Similar functionality is available for the CM family, for the EC family, or for either computer modern encoding the present package generalises the facility. Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/anyfontsize Summary description: anyfontsize lets the author use any font in any size License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- a small bugfix ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/anyfontsize .

The package below has been updated at tug.ctan.org and should soon appear at your favorite mirror. Thank you, Jim Hefferon ..................................................................... The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: ijmart Author's name: Boris Veytsman Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/ijmart Summary description: LaTeX class for the Israel Journal of Mathematics License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The Israel Journal of Mathematics is published by The Hebrew University Magnes Press.

This will help the authors already familiar with amsart to easily submit manuscripts for The Israel Journal of Mathematics or to put the preprints in http://www.arxiv.org with minimal changes in the LaTeX source. Changes: Version 1.1: Added environments namedprop and namedprop* for special named propositions. Version 1.1a: Minor documentation updates. Version 1.2: New table of contents formatting. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/ijmart .

The package below has been updated on tug.ctan.org and should soon be at your favorite mirror. Thank you, Jim Hefferon Saint Michael's College .....................................................................

This makes it especially easy to integrate into the workflow of an editor with just LaTeX and pdfLaTeX buttons. Wrappers are provided for various psfrag-related features so that Matlab figures via laprint, Mathematica figures via MathPSfrag, and regular psfrag figures can all be input consistently and easily. v0.4 adds options to change the commandline flags passed to the auxiliary programs, improves robustness and flexibility, and simplifies the output from using the package. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/auto-pst-pdf .
