Idris Samawi Hamid submitted the almfixed package. Version number: 0.92 License type: gfl Summary description: Arabic-Latin Modern Fixed extends TeX-Gyre Latin Modern Mono 10 Regular to full Arabic Unicode support Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. For more details, see README.txt. For more extensive documentation, examples, and background; see almfixed-dtk.pdf. 2. Arabic-Latin Modern Fixed is an extension of TeX-Gyre Latin Modern Mono 10 Regular. Every glyph and opentype feature of the Latin Modern Mono has been retained, with minor improvements. On the other hand, we have changed the vertical metrics of the font. Although the Arabic script is designed to use the same x-size as Latin Modern Mono, the former script needs greater ascender and descender space. 3. Every Arabic glyph in each Unicode-code block is supported (up to Unicode 7.0): Arabic, Arabic Supplement, Arabic Extended, Arabic Presentation-Forms A, and Arabic Presentation-Forms B. 4. There are two versions of the font: otf and ttf. The opentype version is for print applications (and usually the default for TeX). The TrueType version is for on-screen applications such as text editors. Hinting in the ttf version is much better for on-screen, at least on Microsoft Windows. 5. The most unique feature of Arabic-Latin Modern is in its treatment of vowels and diacritics. Each vowel and diacritic (ALM Fixed contains a total of 68 such glyphs) can now be edited horizontally within any text editor or processor. I believe this is the very first opentype Arabic font ever to have this capability. Editing complex Arabic texts will now be much easier to input and to proofread. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/fonts/almfixed More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/almfixed We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

Scott Pakin submitted an update to the bundledoc package. Version number: 3.2 License type: lppl Summary description: Bundle together all the files needed to build a LaTeX document. Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- bundledoc is a post-processor for the snapshot package that bundles together all the classes, packages, and files needed to build a given LaTeX document. It reads the .dep file that snapshot produces, finds each of the files mentioned therein, and archives them into a single .tar.gz (or .zip, or whatever) file, suitable for moving across systems, transmitting to a colleague, etc. As an added bonus, this distribution includes a small script called arlatex. arlatex is a LaTeX-specific archiving program that combines a bunch of files into a single .tex file. When the .tex file is run through latex, all of the original files are recreated and the LaTeX document is built. bundledoc can be easily configured to use arlatex as its archiver in place of tar, zip, etc. Version 3.2 includes a new texlive-unix-arlatex.cfg script that facilitates using arlatex with bundledoc. arlatex-generated .tex files now use the filecontents package if available. bundledoc has been modified to work slightly better when given filenames containing spaces (although I'm sure that bugs in filename processing still remain). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/support/bundledoc More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/bundledoc We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
