This update to the gentium-tug package changes only the
lgr-gentiumplus-regular.tfm and lgr-gentiumplus-italic.tfm
metric files. Now, as expected for the LGR encoding, a sigma
at the end of a word, or followed by punctuation, will be
automatically changed (via the TeX/MF ligature mechanism)
to a final sigma. All the pfb/ttf/etc. files, and all the
other metric files, are unchanged. The documentation is
slightly updated.
Big thanks to Ralf Stubner for suggesting and then implementing this!
The major addition in this gentium-tug TeX package remains
Type 1 fonts corresponding to the TrueType originals. These
incorporate the name "Gentium" by permission of SIL given to
the TeX Users Group. The package also includes support files
for LaTeX and ConTeXt, and TeX-specific documentation
discussing the supported encodings, etc.
pdfTEX: Support JPEG Exif as well as JFIF; do not even emit a warning if
\pdfinclusionerrorlevel is negative; sync with xpdf 3.04.
LuaTEX: New library newtokenlib for scanning tokens; bug fixes in the normal
random number generator and other places.
XeTEX: Image handling fixes; xdvipdfmx binary looked for first as a sibling
to xetex; internal XDV opcodes changed.
MetaPost: New numbersystem binary; new Japanese-enabled upmpost and
updvitomp programs, analogous to up*tex.
Infrastructure: The fmtutil script has been reimplemented to read
fmtutil.cnf on a per-tree basis, analogous to updmap. Web2C mktex* scripts
(including mktexlsr, mktextfm, mktexpk) now prefer programs in their own
directory, instead of always using the existing PATH.
