Summary description: A bash script for installing a LaTeX font family
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
With this script (installfont for MiKTeX; installfont-tl for
TeXLive), you can install a LaTeX font family (Postscript Type1,
Truetype, Opentype). It supports font series from light to
ultra bold + (faked) small caps + faked slanted, but no expert
fonts. The script will rename the fonts automatically (optional)
or will otherwise expect *.afm files and the font files (in
Postscript Type1 format!) named in the Karl Berry scheme
(e.g. 5nar8a.pfb). After running the script, you should
have a working font installation in your local TeX tree.
For this month's (07/2013) free font on www.freefont.de,
simply run
installfont-tl -t otf -f 6sf -n 'Softmaker Stafford Serial'
-c Staffort -P SMFF@Ssf -p stafford -m stafford -O -d 2013/07/15
-v v1.0 -s softmakerfreefont/Stafford
to create and install support files for the usage of Softmaker
Stafford Serial from light to ultra bold font series.
License: LPPL
Changes in v1.7:
- fixed broken TeXLive version installfont-tl
kpseexpand ... -> kpsewhich --expand-var=...

Steve B. Segletes submitted an update to the
stackengine
package.
Version number: 2.0
License type: lppl
Summary description: Highly customized stacking of objects,
insets, baseline changes, etc.
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
While several improvements have been added to stackengine V2.0,
the most important of them requires a small syntax change that
will affect prior code, when specifying the default stackgaps.
This change was required to correct the deficiency that scalable
stackgaps did not scale when the fontsize was changed. V2.0
provides an [oldsyntax] package option to maintain backward
compatibility, if desired. See documentation for details.
