CTAN update: unicode-math
by CTAN Announcements 31 Jul '15

31 Jul '15

Will Robertson submitted an update to the unicode-math package. Version number: 0.8 License type: lppl1.3 Summary description: Unicode mathematics support for XeTeX and LuaTeX. Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - v0.8 (2015/07/29) **Breaking changes in this update!** * `mathrm` (`mathup`), `mathit`, `mathbf`, `mathsf`, and `mathtt` revert to their traditional LaTeX meanings; they are set up to match their equivalent text fonts unless specifically set using `setmathrm` and friends from `fontspec` or the new `setmathfontface` in `unicode-math`. These commands should be used for *multi*-letter identifiers. * New symbol commands have been added, `symrm` (`symup`), `symit`, ..., to replace the behaviour of the old commands. These should be used for *single*-letter identifiers. See the package documentation for more detail on these and related commands. * Package options `mathit=sym`, `mathbf=sym`, etc., reverse the changes above to revert to pre-v0.8 behaviour for `mathXYZ`. Regardless of package option, `symXYZ` always maps to symbols and `mathtextXYZ` is provided for the traditional `mathXYZ` font switch. * New command `setoperatorfont` to set the font used for commands such as `sin` and `cos`. Usage: `setoperatorfontmathbf` or any command defined with `setmathfontface`. * Traditional LaTeX `DeclareMathAlphabet` now works again for legacy font-loading packages. * Commands defined to force Greek letters with `upbeta` and `itbeta`, etc. * Assorted bug fixes and minor changes. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/unicode-math More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/unicode-math We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
