CTAN Update: thailatex
by CTAN Announcements 04 Nov '11

04 Nov '11

On Thu, 3 Nov 2011 Theppitak Karoonboonyanan submitted an update to the thailatex package. Summary description: Typeset Thai texts with standard LaTeX classes License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Fonts previously provided in thailatex are now split into a separate package fonts-tlwg (upstream project name: thaifonts-scalable). If your old Thai LaTeX documents do not use 'thswitch' package, font families will not be switched with sffamily or tfamily commands. Only the default one will be used throughout the document. To allow font switching, it is now recommended to usepackage{fonts-tlwg}. It is currently equivalent to usepackage{thswitch}, but the latter is deprecated soon, to allow alternative Thai font packages to come. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/language/thai/thailatex .
