Summary description: Footnotes in separate file

are inserted in a document. Footnotes and endnotes can, thus, be easily grouped
together in a separate file, so that the main body is less cluttered.

On Tue, 6 Mar 2012 Markus Kohm submitted an update to the
koma-script
package.
Summary description: KOMA-Script a versatile LaTeX2e bundle
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
KOMA-Script is a versatile bundle of LaTeX2e document classes and packages. It
aims to be a replacement to the standard LaTeX2e classes. KOMA-Script does not
stop with the features known from the standard classes, but it extends the
possibilities in order to provide the user an almost complete working
environment.
Classes at KOMA-Script: scrartcl (article class), scrbook (book class), scrdoc
(internal), scrguide (internal), scrlettr (obsolete), scrlttr2 (letter class),
scrreprt (report class).
Packages at KOMA-Script: scraddr (handling of address files), scrbase (basic
features for class and package authors, e.g, key-value-options), scrdate (e.g.,
name of the day), scrextend (provides some KOMA-Script features for users of
other classes), scrfontsizes (developer help package to generate font size
files), scrhack (beta, improves some other packages), scrjura (beta, writing
laws, contracts etc.), scrkbase (sub-package used by KOMA-Script classes and
packages), scrlfile (manipulations while loading files, packages or classes),
scrpage (obsolete), scrpage2 (configuration and definition of page styles),
scrtime (output of current time), scrwfile (minimize number of write handles and
provide cloning of helper files), tocbasic (easy generation and handling of
table of contents and lists of floats), tocstyle (alpha), typearea (professional
type area and borders for ordinary persons).
Main documentation files: scrguide.pdf (German), scrguien.pdf (English),
scrhack.pdf (English), scrjura.pdf (German), tocstyle.pdf (English).
For a detailed list of changes see <http://www.komascript.de/release> (in
German) or <http://developer.berlios.de/project/showfiles.php?group_id=4307> (in
English) or simply the ChangeLog inside the bundle.

soulpos
package.
Summary description: Fancy underlining
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This package combines soul with the savepos mechanism provided by the pdftex
engine, so that you can create (almost) arbitrary underlining and similar
``decorations'', including rules, leaders and even pictures (pgf, pstricks,
etc.). Unlike soul underlines, which are built by repeating small elements, here
each chunk of text to be underlined is a single element.

paratype
package.
Summary description: LaTeX support for free fonts by ParaType
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
- Added font PT Mono (currently just TrueType format).
- My converted Type 1 version of fonts PT Sans and PT Serif is replaced
by Type 1 fonts kindly provided by ParaType. It has two important
advantages: First, they are of much higher quality. Second,
the distribution of the fonts is not limited to TeX.
- Added map file paratype-mixed.map that sets Type 1 version of PT Sans
and PT Serif and TrueType version of PT Mono. It is just temporary
sollution before I get Type 1 version of PT Mono. This map file
may disappear in future releases of this package.
- Added support for faked styles UprightItalic and Slanted of PT Serif.
Requested by A. Jan Kutylowski. There are no font files containing
these styles, the styles are generated on the fly. There is small
incompatibility: In the previous version of paratype, if you
requested slanted shape of PT Serif, it was replaced by italic
shape. Now, there is both italic and slanted shape and they are
different.
- Removed f-ligatures from the TS1 and X2 encodings. They were set explicitely
for all encodings on the command line, no matter if they were really
needed.
- The file paratype.sty sets PTMono-TLF as the default monospaced font.
