New on CTAN: fnlineno
by CTAN Announcements 16 Feb '11

16 Feb '11

On Wed, 16 Feb 2011 Uwe Lück submitted the fnlineno package. Summary description: numbering footnote lines, including linelabel support License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- fnlineno.sty extends lineno.sty such that even footnote lines are numbered and can be referred to using linelabel, ef, etc. It has been motivated as support for critical editions of printed works with footnotes, as opposed to scholarly critical editions of manuscripts. For this purpose, an extension edfnotes of the ednotes package for critical editions, building on fnlineno, is provided in a different directory. lineno.sty has also been used for the revision process of submissions. With fnlineno.sty, reference to footnotes in the submitted work may become possible. As to implementation, the method of typesetting footnotes on the main vertical list may later lead to applying the line numbering method to several parallel texts (with footnotes) and to `inner' material such as table cells. This work of some weeks, including approaches that failed, was possible due to major support by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, organized by Christian Tapp. The lineno bundle still needs reworking ... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/lineno .

CTAN Update: PT Sans
by CTAN Announcements 10 Feb '11

10 Feb '11

On Thu, 10 Feb 2011 Pavel Farar submitted an update to the ptsans package. Summary description: PT Sans font and LaTeX support. License type: other-free Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - In the fonts/enc/ and fonts/map directories omitted the paratype level (suggested by Karl Berry). - Changed style files in this way: 1) Added an option to scale the fonts. In the font definition files was support for it but not in the style files. It was caused by creating simpler style files than those created by autoinst from fontools (they were created because the original files required the package fontenc with all supported encodings -- which might be a problem). 2) Style files do not change neither familydefault nor fdefault. There are font substitutions in the font definition files now. Both suggested by Ricard Torres. Used his patches (based on Walter Schmidt's macros) for PTSans.sty and T1PTSans-TLF.fd.
