CTAN Update: mf2pt1
by CTAN Announcements 03 Jul '12

03 Jul '12

On Mon, 2 Jul 2012 Scott Pakin submitted an update to the mf2pt1 package. Summary description: Produce PostScript Type 1 fonts from Metafont source. License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- mf2pt1 facilitates producing PostScript Type 1 fonts from a Metafont source file. mf2pt1's advantage over tools such as TeXtrace and mftrace is that it does not rely on bitmap tracing and therefore can produce higher-quality Type 1 fonts than trace-based tools. The catch is that mf2pt1 imposes a number of restrictions on the Metafont input so it is not, as the name may imply, an automatic converter of arbitrary Metafont fonts to Type 1 format. Version 2.5 fixes a pair of bugs that led to glyph widths being slightly larger than intended. Thanks to Michael Ummels for the corrections. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/support/mf2pt1 . More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/mf2pt1 (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 .

CTAN Update: biblatex-dw
by CTAN Announcements 28 Jun '12

28 Jun '12

On Thu, 28 Jun 2012 Dominik Waßenhoven submitted an update to the biblatex-dw package. Summary description: Humanities styles for biblatex. License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- version 1.5 This version of biblatex-dw was tested with biblatex 1.7. - BUGFIX: The functionality of ibidpage=true was broken. This is now fixed. - BUGFIX: With edbyidem=true (and xref=false), the first citation of an @inbook entry where author and editor are the same, but the bookauthor differs resulted in ed. by idem, which is wrong. This is now fixed. - BUGFIX: With edbyidem=false, the book author of @inbook entries was not typeset in the appropriate format. This could lead to a wrong output (e.g. Lastname, Firstname instead of Firstname Lastname). This is now fixed. - BUGFIX: With @inreference entries, the output could be inconsistent with regard to the volume(s). This is now fixed. - BUGFIX: Changes in font size for annotationfont and libraryfont led to a wrong baselineskip. This is now fixed. - BUGFIX: There was a small bug in @collection entries concerning the punctuation after the labelname. This should be fixed now. - BUGFIX: With shorthandinbib=true the labelnamepunct was printed when there was no author or editor present. This lead to superfluous punctuation and is now fixed. - BUGFIX: In some circumstances the final period of the bibliography items (finentry) was not printed. This is now fixed. - In authortitle-dw, the extcite command now also considers the value of the firstfull option. That means, if a work is cited for the first time via a extcite command, the result would be <Name> (<full citation>). - New option citeauthor which can take the values namefont, namefontfoot and normalfont. This option controls the name format for the citeauthor command. With citeauthor=namefont the same format as set by the option namefont is used. This is the default behaviour. With citeauthor=normalfont the normal font is always used for citeauthor, regardless of the namefont option. With citeauthor=namefontfoot the namefont format is used if the citeauthor command is inside a footnote, otherwise the normal font is used. - The list of shorthands with option terselos=true is now even more terse: the [main]subtitle and [main]titleaddon fields are now also omitted. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/biblatex-contrib/biblatex-dw/ . More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/biblatex-dw (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 .
