CTAN update: abntexto
by CTAN Announcements 10 May '26

10 May '26

Elayson Abreu submitted an update to the abntexto package. Version: 1.1 2026-05-08 License: pd Summary description: LaTeX class for formatting academic papers in ABNT standards Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- A breaking change refers to a change capable of altering older documents if compiled with the current version of the class. - Breaking change. The locators `\listacronymname`, `\listabbreviationname`, and `\listsymbolname` are no longer defined in Portuguese but are initially defined in English (without the presence of babel.sty). This only represents a breaking change in documents that do not load babel, but this is very unlikely; - `\normalsize` is now initialized in `\DeclareOption{10pt}` and `\DeclareOption{11pt}` from now on. - New command `\abntextonote` for inserting notes into tables: `\long\def\note#1{\abntextonote{#1}}` or `\long\def\nt#1{\abntextonote{#1}}`. New commands `\savedabntextonote`, `\abntextonotelabel`, `\printnotebox`; - New command `\setplacepos`; - Added `\gresetORIlabel` to the definition of `subplace`; - The definition of `\alternativesublegend` has been simplified; - New command `\subnote`; - New commands \abntextodecimalcomma, \abntextohyperrefpatch, \abntextodisabledecimalcomma, \abntextodisablehyperrefpatch and \disableautotextual; - New command `\useeletroniclayout`; - Addition to the manual on how the end user can define `\nextoddphysicalpage` to ensure that sections start on the front of the sheets; - Addition to the manual on how the end user can redefine `\bibsetup` to ensure that References are formatted according to NBR~6023:2018; - Addition to the manual regarding the situation where a floating object and a non-floating object are together on the same page with out-of-order numbering. The solution is to avoid floating and non-floating objects on the same page; - Addition to the manual regarding the fact that the latest version is always available on Github (the version on CTAN is not necessarily the most recent); - Addition to the manual: a new subsection on the typographical treatment of quaternary and quinary sections; - In abntexto-exemplo.tex, the abstract in a foreign language must be enclosed in `\selectlanguage`; - In abntexto-exemplo.tex, the cataloging record page cannot have the `\onesidelayout` layout because such a page must be on the back of the title page, therefore `\twosidelayout` was added. In addition, the pre-textual elements were presented on the front side, as recommended by NBR 14724:2024; - The manual stated that "both `\singlesp\onehalfsp` and `\onehalfsp\singlesp` produce the same effect", but this statement is incorrect. The correct statement is "both `\abntsmall\onehalfsp` and `\onehalfsp\abntsmall` produce the same effect"; - The `\sectionmark` in the example in the Headers and Footers section of the Source Code appendix correctly resets `\marks1` from now on; - The commands `\phantomsection`, `\Hy@writebookmark`, and `\NG@gettitle` were defined using `\providecomand`; - A note regarding the occasion when the warning `\tnba@warn@eqbox` (formerly `\tnba@obs@eqbox`) cannot be displayed when it should: during a change in the document's font; - The abntexto-uece class was cited in the manual as a help source for class writers; - Pages in direct quotations in the manual were marked; - An occurrence of NBR 10520 was replaced by NBR 14724 in the manual. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/abntexto The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/abntexto/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
