11 Sep '04

A new package has been installed on tug.ctan.org and should soon get to your favorite mirror. Thanks for the upload, Jim Hefferon ====================================================================== The following information was provided by the package's contributor. Name of contribution: microtype Author's name: R Schlicht Location on CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/microtype Summary description: An interface to the micro-typographic extensions of pdfTeX License type: lppl Announcement text given by the package's contributor: - - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The `microtype' package provides a LaTeX interface to pdfTeX's micro-typographic extensions: character protrusion and font expansion. It allows to restrict character protrusion and/or font expansion to a certain set of fonts, and to configure micro-typographic aspects of the fonts in a straight-forward and flexible way. Settings for various fonts are provided. Note: Font expansion and character protrusion only works with the pdfTeX compiler, at least version 0.14f, resp. version 1.20a, for automatic font expansion. - - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can have a look at the package at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/microtype although you may get a better network connection by visiting a mirror of CTAN that is near to you; see http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/README.mirrors
