On Fri, 12 Aug 2005, Werner LEMBERG submitted version 4.6.0 of the

CJK package

to CTAN.

Location on CTAN: language/chinese/CJK/4_6.0

======================================================================

Version 4.6.0: new: 11-Aug-2005 CJKutf8.sty merges basic LaTeX's and CJK's UTF-8 support. See CJKutf8.doc for details.

                The two new macros Thaispace and Thainospace can be
                used to control the EOL behaviour in Thai text blocks
                if processed with cjk-enc.el.

                There are now scripts (for Unix) to call pdflatex
                instead of latex: bg5pdflatex, sjispdflatex, etc.;
                all scripts now pass parameters to latex (the program).

                New documentation files giving hints how to set up the
                CJK package for optimal PDF output.

                New documentation file `reftex.doc' describing
                customization for RefTeX (which is part of Emacs).

                CJKfntef.sty provides more font effects specific to
                CJK scripts. See the example file CJKfntef.tex for
                typical usage.

•               All .fdv-files have been renamed to use the suffix
  

•               `.fdx' since they are no longer restricted to vertical
  

•               writing direction.  See the new file `fdxfiles.doc'
  

•               for more information.
  
            changed:
                All plain text documentation files now have the suffix
                `.txt'.
  
  

•               Thai support has been improved.
  

•                 . Internally, the font creation process now uses
  

•                   fontinst to create the TFM files. As a consequence,
  

•                   virtual fonts are no longer necessary.
  

•                 . Due to an uncertain license, the `dbtt' font family
  

•                   has been replaced with `garuda', taken from
  

•                   thailatex version 0.3.5.1 which you can find at
  

•                     http://linux.thai.net/plone/TLWG/thailatex
  

•                 . The directory tree below `utils/thaifont' has been
  

•                   updated to reflect TDS 1.1, as supported by the
  

•                   forthcoming TeXLive 2005 and teTeX 3.0.
  

•                 Please replace all files related to Thai fonts in your
  

•                 TEXMF tree with the new fonts and font support files.
  
  

•               HLaTeX support has been updated to handle fonts from
  

•               version 1.0.1---there are no longer MF source files,
  

•               only PS fonts. Support for non-uhc fonts have been
  

•               removed; you should upgrade to the latest HLaTeX font
  

•               archives from CTAN. Please consult CJK.txt, section
  

•               `Korean input', for the (slightly) changed font names of
  

•               HLaTeX support.
  
            errors:
                Some characters in Big 5 encoding disappeared without
                a warning if pseudo-vertical writing was active.
  
                pinyin.sty:
                  Umlaut u with diacritc appeared bold.
  
                  Umlaut u with macron above was broken.
  
                CJKulem.sty:
                  User-defined CJKglue value was ignored.
  
                  Line breaks before a post-punctuation CJK glyph
                  weren't disabled when uline and friends were used.
  
                MULEenc.sty:
                  	extordfeminine and 	extordmasculine were exchanged
                  if used with cjk-enc.el.
  
                contrib/wadalab/*.fdx:
                  Handle Hiragana-Katagana prolongation mark correctly.
  
                cjk-enc.el:
                  Multifile support was partially broken.
  
                CJKvert.sty:
                  Both CJKvert and CJKhorz had both local and global
                  effects.  Now they are completely local.
  

Thanks for the update.
