CTAN Update: upquote
by CTAN Announcements 09 Apr '12

09 Apr '12

On Thu, 5 Apr 2012 Markus Kuhn submitted an update to the upquote package. Summary description: upright-quote and grave-accent glyphs in verbatim License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The upquote.sty LaTeX package changes the glyphs used by the verb and verb* macros and the verbatim and verbatim* environments for ASCII characters 27 and 60 to the upright quotation mark and grave accent ones required by Unicode, ISO 646, ISO 10646, and many other character set standards. This is particularly useful for typesetting software source code. The previous version 1.1 always used the textcomp package to produce the desired glyphs, which can trigger undesired side effects (use of tctt bitmap font). This new version 1.2 does not load any additional fonts as long as the default cmtt font is used in its original OT1 encoding. Only if the default font encoding or the tt font are changed, then textcomp.sty is loaded and used to select the replacement glyphs, as before. Benefit: the replacement glyphs come again by default all from cmtt, eliminating the unnecessary use of additional T1 fonts, which may exist only as bitmaps, may come with worse Type1 hinting, or cause other printing problems. There is now also PDF documentation. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/upquote .
