Oliver Kopp submitted an update to the scientific-thesis-cover package. Version: 5.0.0 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Provides cover page and affirmation at the end of a thesis Announcement text: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ### Changed - The cover page follows the current layout requirements of the Faculty of Computer Science: university name (or logo) on top, institute and its address as separate blocks, fixed positions for thesis type, title, author, and the examination data. The postal code is written without the "D–" prefix. - The package requires LaTeX 2020-10-01 or newer. - English cover labels follow the layout requirements: "Study program", "Advisor", "Start date", and "End date". - The options `supervisor` and `course` are now called `advisor` and `studyprogram`. The old names still work. ### Fixed - The cover page is now centered regardless of the margins set by the document class or packages such as `geometry` (e.g., with the masters-doctoral-thesis template). See [#9](https://github.com/latextemplates/scientific-thesis-cover/issues/9). - A custom institute with several lines (`institute={...\\...}`) is centered line by line. See [latextemplates/scientific-thesis-template#145](https://github.com/latextemp…. - Option values may contain `\\` and commands, e.g., a department below the institute or two advisors; `kvoptions-patch` is only needed with an older LaTeX distribution. See [#4](https://github.com/latextemplates/scientific-thesis-cover/issues/4) and [#5](https://github.com/latextemplates/scientific-thesis-cover/issues/5). - German declaration: "Hilfsmitel" is now spelled "Hilfsmittel".

Conversely, worlds marked with export=sheet/1 are written to a JSON file by \karoljsonschreiben and can be uploaded to Robot Karol Online; programs and check scripts of an imported task survive a round trip. Reading and writing need neither shell escape nor external tools. The interface lives in the new file robotkarol.lua. Documents not using it typeset exactly as with version 3.10. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/luatex/latex/robotkarol More information is at https://ctan.org/pkg/robotkarol -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.

The output is the same. * LaTeX kernel 2022-06-01 or later. * No Korean font needs to be installed: the symbols come from the bundled font `hangulmath-sans`. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/fonts/hangulmath More information is at https://ctan.org/pkg/hangulmath -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.

Zejia Fan submitted the openglyph package. Version: 0.2.1 License: mit gpl3 other-free Summary description: Font-backed typesetting and component-based construction of historic Chinese Announcement text: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [AI-assisted text, reviewed and approved by the maintainer] OpenGlyph is a font-backed LaTeX package for historical Chinese glyphs. It provides ASCII glyph identifiers, a built-in collection of 22,583 GlyphWiki ebag_s forms, and an optional offline component-edit compiler for new forms. The compiler supports occurrence-specific edits and reusable JSON modules, preserving source programs and stable project-local PUA allocations. Typesetting uses XeLaTeX or LuaLaTeX without shell escape or online services. Researchers remain responsible for checking glyphs against their sources. This contribution includes an English manual with source, a Chinese example, the font's source data, and separate notices for MIT OpenGlyph code, permissively licensed GlyphWiki data/fonts and the GPL v3 KAGE engine. Development and documentation have been substantially AI-assisted; see AI-ASSISTANCE.md in the distribution.

Alain Matthes submitted an update to the alterqcm package. Version: 5.00c 2026-10-27 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Multiple choice questionnaires in two column tables Announcement text: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ## Changed Option handling now uses pgfkeys, loaded on its own without PGF/TikZ. xkeyval is no longer loaded. All key names are unchanged. ifthen is no longer loaded. calc is still loaded, because users write expressions such as \linewidth-1cm inside their questions. Each language is now defined in a single table (\aq@deflang) instead of three separate copies. The numeric language codes are gone. The French strings in the source are now written in UTF-8 directly (Réponses instead of R\'eponses). Internal macros now use the \aq@ prefix. These generic names are no longer defined: \nextrandom, \setrannum, \addtotoks, \mysymb, \goodrep, \liste, \nb and \last@val. \points is now defined only if it is free, so it no longer clashes with the exam class. Use \AQpoints. alea now shuffles the proposals properly (Fisher–Yates), using the random primitive of the engine. The code taken from random.tex has been removed. \AQannexe: all columns have the same width, and the true/false labels follow the current language. The documentation is now compiled with LuaLaTeX. xeCJK is replaced by luatexja-fontspec with the Fandol fonts. The package works with pdfLaTeX and LuaLaTeX. LuaLaTeX is recommended for Greek, Russian and Chinese. ## Added \AQset{...} sets default options for all the following tables. New key seed=<integer>: with alea, the same order is drawn on every compilation. A question can now have any number of proposals. The previous limit was 5, and any extra proposals were silently dropped. If \square or \blacksquare is not defined by any loaded package (for example when amssymb is not loaded), a built-in square is used instead. The option long without \usepackage{longtable} now gives a clear error, and the table is set with tabular. Before, the column specification was printed as text in the document. ## Fixed In long tables, a stray space shifted the questions by about 2pt. The width of the question box was read from the wrong register (\wd\aq@wdquest). This affected the transparent mode. A test on numprop that could never take effect has been removed. Strings now match between the language options and the language= key (Russian « Вопросы », French « Suite sur la page suivante »). Measuring the height of the proposals no longer produces spurious "Overfull \hbox" warnings. Documentation: the absolute path used with \InputQuestionList is now a relative path. transparent mode: the invisible rule is no wider than the cell, so the circles now sit where the boxes are, including with VF. The question column no longer produces an "Overfull \vbox", and with VF the question text is now hidden too. The environment starts with \noindent. The table is as wide as \textwidth, so the paragraph indent made it overflow by \parindent. Documentation: long code lines in the examples are wrapped. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/alterqcm The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/alterqcm/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

Munehiro Yamamoto submitted the subcaptionlite package.

It does not touch \@makecaption of the class, so it can be used with classes that have their own design of captions. Subfigures and subtables are numbered (a), (b), ... within each float, and the number of the float is right whether its caption comes before or after the subcaptions. hyperref and cleveref are supported.

Version: 1.7 2026-10-26 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Undergraduate thesis class for UFV (Brazil), based on abnTeX2 Announcement text: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- abntex2-ufv 1.7: LaTeX class for undergraduate theses at UFV (Brazil) Version 1.7 of abntex2-ufv, a class built on abnTeX2 for the final theses (TCC) of the Information Systems program at the Federal University of Viçosa (UFV), Rio Paranaíba campus, following the UFV normalization manual (2026-2 edition; ABNT NBR 14724/2025, 6023/2025 and 10520/2023). Changes in this release: * Minimal class: it now loads only what it needs itself (fontenc, indentfirst, acro, silence, etoolbox). graphicx, csquotes, microtype, booktabs, tabularx, multirow, biblatex and xurl moved to the document preamble, as in the template, so that editors such as TeXstudio and LaTeX Workshop recognize their commands. Breaking for documents written for 1.5/1.6 (see CHANGES.md and the guide). * Class options use the kernel \DeclareKeys (LaTeX 2022-06 or newer); the option nobiblatex is obsolete and ignored with a warning. * New defaults, which the document can override: link colors, PDF metadata taken from \titulo, \autor and the preamble note, \frenchspacing, \urlstyle{same}. * Fixed: the ilustracao environment with an optional width, e.g. \begin{ilustracao}[\linewidth], typesets its content in a minipage of that width, so listings no longer overflow the margin and breaklines works. * Fixed: the listings patch for an indented \end{lstlisting} is now applied. * Fixed: removed spurious warnings from hyperref (\uppercase in appendix bookmarks) and from memoir (deprecated \settocpreprocessor). * Documentation and template: monospaced font FiraMono with lining figures (works with pdfLaTeX, LuaLaTeX and XeLaTeX), listings guide, migration notes; new regression tests. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/abntex2-ufv More information is at https://ctan.org/pkg/abntex2-ufv -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the upload.
