announcing frenchle and French Pro V5.08
by Rainer Schoepf 21 Oct '02

21 Oct '02

I'm sending this on behalf of Bernard Gaulle Rainer Schöpf ------------------------------------------------------------------- Here is just a little announce for the new version 5.08 of the frenchle (LPPL) package and of the frenchpro (shareware) package for LaTeX. The first one was released weeks ago but never announced. The last one was a little delayed for Windows but is now quite ready with a complete unix-like installation procedure. Major changes in the installation makefiles for Unix and MacOS X. All this stuff will go their way through the CTAN servers in few hours or days. --bg

CTAN submission -- cmbright fonts in Type 1 format
by Reinhard Zierke 15 Oct '02

15 Oct '02

----- Forwarded message from Harald Harders ----- I have uploaded the file hfbright.tar.gz to ftp.dante.de. Licence is LPPL. >From the README: This package contains the cmbright fonts in Type1 format. Only the fonts are included that are not part of the cm-super bundle (thus, math and OT1 fonts). This package contains the ready Postscript Type1 fonts in PFB format as used by dvips and pdflatex, as well as a map file and a config file for dvips. The font names and the file names begin with 'hf' for 'harders font'. This has been done for not getting mixed up with the commercial cmbright fonts by MicroPress. This has been suggested by Walter Schmidt, the creator of the cmbright fonts. I suggest to put the contents of this file to CTAN/fonts/ps-type1/hfbright Yours Harald ----- End forwarded message ----- Thanks for the upload. I installed the files as suggested in CTAN:/tex-archive/fonts/ps-type1/hfbright/ next to the cm-super package. Reinhard Zierke for the CTAN team
