Charles P. Schaum submitted an update to the nameauth package. Version: 3.01 2016-10-27 License: lppl1.3 Summary description: Name authority mechanism for consistency in body text and index Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I am pleased to announce the release of nameauth 3.0. This extensive redesign of the package brings greater simplicity, compactness, and power. Notable feature additions include: * Alternate names are available for both Western names and comma-delimited non-Western names. * The index macros generate both `see' and `see also' types of references. More can be done in terms of index management. * Writing custom name format hooks has been simplified greatly. * In most cases, the package remains backward-compatible with earlier versions through the use of package options. The modular redesign of the package has reduced its size by over 100 lines even after adding features. Distinct paths exist for printing names in the text, putting page entries in the index, and putting cross-references into the index. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package's Catalogue entry can be viewed at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/nameauth The package's files themselves can be inspected at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/nameauth/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

Antonis Tsolomitis and Andreas Papasalouros submitted the latex2nemeth package. Version: 1.0 License: gpl3 Summary description: Convert LaTeX source to Braille with math in Nemeth Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- After many failed attempts to transcribe real math notes and books to Braille/Nemeth in order to deal with a real situation (blind student in Math Dept.) we decided to develop a new program that follows a direct, from LaTeX to Braille/Nemeth, approach. Other attempts (such as tex4ht) failed because they all needed an extra step to go from xml to Braille and this step (say, with liblouis) produced incomprehensible output (liblouis focuses in Office apps). Our main target was the Greek language which is only Braille level 1, but English at level 1 is also supported. Simple pictures in pstricks are also supported in order to produce tactile graphics with specialized equipment. The README file contains documentation and links to the project pages. License is GPL3 or newer. At the moment this is the only project we are aware of that has published real Math University Notes and Books in Braille. Check http://myria.math.aegean.gr/labs/dt/braille/index-en.html Embossing needs LibreOffice and odt2braille so that we do not need to deal with embossers' drivers. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package's Catalogue entry can be viewed at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/latex2nemeth The package's files themselves can be inspected at http://mirror.ctan.org/support/latex2nemeth/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

10 Oct '16

Masamichi Hosoda submitted the extractpdfmark package. Version: 1.0.0 License: gpl3 Summary description: Extract page mode and named destinations as PDFmark from PDF Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- If you create a PDF document by something like TeX systems, many small PDFs as figures get included into the main PDF. It is common for each small PDF to use the same fonts. If the small PDFs are embedded subsetted fonts, the TeX system includes them as-is for the main PDF. As a result, the main PDF is embedded different subsets of the same duplicate font. It is not possible to remove the duplicates since they are different subsets. It enormously increases the main PDF file size. On the other hand, if the small PDFs are embedded full set fonts, the TeX system also includes all of them for the main PDF. The main PDF is embedded many duplicate fonts, but they are all same full set fonts. Therefore, Ghostscript can remove the duplicates. It can reduce the main PDF files size. Moreover, if the small PDFs are not embedded any fonts, the TeX system outputs the main PDF which lacks some fonts. In this case, Ghostscript can embed the necessary fonts. It can significantly reduce the required disk size. Either way, Ghostscript inputs the main PDF which is outputted by the TeX system, and outputs the final PDF. Unfortunately, during this process, Ghostscript does not preserve PDF page-mode and named-destinations etc. As a result, when you open the final PDF, it cannot realize the intended how the document shall be displayed. Remote PDF links also do not work. Extract PDFmark can extract page mode and named destinations as PDFmark from PDF. You can get the small PDF that has preserved them by using this tool. https://github.com/trueroad/extractpdfmark ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package's Catalogue entry can be viewed at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/extractpdfmark The package's files themselves can be inspected at http://mirror.ctan.org/support/extractpdfmark/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

Joseph Rabinoff submitted the spalign package. Version number: 2016-10-05 License type: lppl1.3 Summary description: Typeset matrices and arrays with spaces and semicolons as delimiters. Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The purpose of this package is to decrease the number of keystrokes needed to typeset small amounts of aligned material (matrices, arrays, etc.). It provides a facility for typing alignment environments and macros with spaces as the alignment delimiter and semicolons (by default) as the end-of-row indicator. For instance, typeset a matrix using spalignmat{1 12 -3; 24 -2 2; 0 0 1}, or a vector using spalignvector{22 frac{1}{2} -14}. This package also contains utility macros for typesetting augmented matrices, vectors, arrays, systems of equations, and more, and is easily extendable to other situations that use alignments. People who have to typeset a large number of matrices (like linear algebra teachers) should find this package to be a real time saver. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/spalign More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/spalign We are supported by the TeX User Groups.
