13 Jul '26

Yegor Bugayenko submitted the handstroke package. Version: 0.3.0 2026-07-12 License: mit Summary description: Eye-catching hand-drawn underline Announcement text: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ This LaTeX package provides the \handstroke command, which underlines a word or a phrase with a line that looks as if it were drawn by hand. A straight, ruler-perfect rule blends into the text and is easy to overlook, whereas an uneven, hand-drawn handstroke stands apart from the page and catches the reader's eye. The line can optionally be tinted in any color. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/handstroke The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/handstroke/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

CTAN update: CTeX
by CTAN Announcements 13 Jul '26

13 Jul '26

Liam Huang submitted an update to the CTeX package. Version: 2.6.2 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: LaTeX classes and packages for Chinese typesetting Announcement text: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This release adds FangSong font support for the `ubuntu` fontset, fixes a metadata inconsistency, refactors the source structure, and improves the documentation typography. NEW FEATURES - The `ubuntu` fontset now includes a FangSong configuration and the `\fangsong` command. When compiling with XeLaTeX or LuaLaTeX, the font is automatically selected from Zhuque FangSong, FandolFang, or Source Han Serif, in that order (#908). BUG FIXES - Fixed `\ProvidesExplFile` in `ctex-heading-*.def` where the declared filename (`ctex-*.def`) did not match the actual filename. IMPROVEMENTS - Split the monolithic `ctex.dtx` into six source files: `ctex.dtx` (install script and user documentation), `ctex-kernel.dtx`, `ctex-engine.dtx`, `ctex-scheme.dtx`, `ctex-auxpkg.dtx`, and `ctex-fontset.dtx`. Refactoring by Xia Mingyu (#937). - Enabled `Language` and `PoZheHaoLigature` for the documentation font, so that em dashes render as full-width ligatures (#382). - Switched the documentation monospaced font to Zhuque FangSong and the italic font to LXGW WenKai GB Lite (#908). Source code: https://github.com/CTeX-org/ctex-kit Issue tracker: https://github.com/CTeX-org/ctex-kit/issues -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/language/chinese/ctex More information is at https://ctan.org/pkg/ctex -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.

CTAN update: xecjk
by CTAN Announcements 13 Jul '26

13 Jul '26

Liam Huang submitted an update to the xecjk package. Version: 3.10.2 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Support for CJK documents in XeLaTeX Announcement text: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This release introduces new options for em-dash (破折号) ligature handling and Latin punctuation switching, improves line-breaking and spacing around long punctuation marks, and fixes two `CJKecglue`-related bugs. NEW FEATURES - Add `PoZheHao` character class to support font-level em-dash ligatures (#382). - Add `PoZheHaoLigature` option to enable font-level em-dash ligature support (#382). - Add `LatinPunct` option, allowing shared CJK/Latin curly quotes, middle dots, and ellipses to be switched to their Latin punctuation counterparts (#389, #431). IMPROVEMENTS - Check kinsoku (line-breaking prohibition) rules on both sides of a break point between long punctuation and other punctuation: an opening punctuation mark must not hang at the end of a line, and a closing punctuation mark or `NoBreakLongPunct` must not appear at the start of a line (#456). - Treat `PoZheHao`-class characters as fullwidth closing punctuation (#382). - Change the compression amount between em-dashes to a multi-way maximum, ensuring that two consecutive `U+2014` do not exceed two Chinese character widths in total (#382). - Add a new check to coordinate blank compensation for em-dashes occupying two character widths (#382). - When ligature is not enabled, add one full blank on each side of an em-dash to ensure consecutive em-dashes occupy two character widths (#382). - Restore `PoZheHaoLigature` settings after reset (#382). - Restore `LatinPunct` settings after reset (#389). BUG FIXES - Use `\setlanguage` to actively flush a language whatsit when closing a `\verb` group, fixing the doubled `CJKecglue` issue when a source-code space appears to the right of `\verb` (#919). - Patch `\meta` from the `doc` package to wrap argument content in `\hbox:n`, fixing the spurious `CJKecglue` before the first character inside `\meta` (#951). DOCUMENTATION - Enable `Language` and `PoZheHaoLigature` for the documentation font, so em-dashes are rendered as fullwidth ligature glyphs (#382). - Switch the documentation monospaced font to Zhuque Fangsong and the italic font to LXGW WenKai GB Lite (#908). Source code: https://github.com/CTeX-org/ctex-kit Issue tracker: https://github.com/CTeX-org/ctex-kit/issues -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/xetex/latex/xecjk More information is at https://ctan.org/pkg/xecjk -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.
