CTAN submission -- MonTeX Implementation Level IV, 04.083
by Reinhard Zierke 30 Oct '01

30 Oct '01

A submission was uploaded to nova.dante.de:/ftp/incoming/upload-20011030.001/. The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: MonTeX Implementation Level IV, 04.083 Name and email: Dr. Oliver Corff Suggested location on CTAN: language/mongolian/montexiv Summary description: Improved Version of MonTeX IV License type: Other Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Many bugs of Sunday, October 28, release eliminated. Major new functions include vertical text boxes (page within page, so to say) for Mongolian and Manju. Documentation begins to take shape. If you have MonTeX IV.04.08 already it is sufficient to exchange texinput/mls.sty and doc/montex.tex against the latest versions. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Reinhard Zierke for the CTAN team

belleek fonts on ctan
by Robin Fairbairns 30 Oct '01

30 Oct '01

I have installed Richard Kinch's belleek font set on CTAN at fonts/belleek (retrieve belleek.zip). from the README: These are the Belleek fonts described in my paper at TUG 98, the 1998 annual meeting of the TeX Users Group. They are drop-in replacements for the proprietary fonts required by the LaTeX mathtime style, where the dropping in process is simply to change the .fd files calling for specific fonts to reflect the font names starting with bl. Notwithstanding any copyright notices in the files, these fonts have been contributed to the public domain in their Type 1 (.pfb) and TrueType (.ttf) forms: blex blsy rblmi these fonts have been available via http://truetex.com for a long time; they have recently been the subject of some discussion in comp.text.tex and elsewhere, and i (and Richard) felt it appropriate to make them more readily accessible to the world.
