This README file accompanies the teubner bundle version 5.8.x dated
August 2023 or later.
Copyright 2010-2023 Claudio Beccari
The bundle contains the files
README this file
teubner.txt a more descriptive file
teubner.dtx the self extracting documented TeX source file
teubner-doc.tex an extended documentation file
teubner.pdf general and technical documentation
teubner-doc.pdf specific documentation with examples
The bundle is distributed under the LPPL license version 1.3c or any later
version.
The bundle has the status of author maintained.
The main purpose of this bundle is to provide Hellenists and classical
philologists with some means for typesetting their documents that usually
contain very specific mark up.
This version allows the typesetter to use both Greek "italic" shapes: the
Olga-like and the Lipsian-like ones; it complies with the LICR (LaTeX
Internal Character Representation) of the Greek glyphs that avoid the
kerning problems that arise with the ligature mechanism embedded in the
LGR encoded default CBfonts; it is compatible with the use of different
vector Latin Type 1 fonts; contains new designs for the horizontally
stretchable markers, et cetera.
Running pdflatex on the .dtx file produces both the documentation and
extracts the byproduct files teubner.sty, teubnertx.sty, teubner.pdf.
The readable extended documentation file teubner-doc.pdf is obtained by
running pdflatex on the teubner-doc.tex file.
Moreover this teubner package generates on the fly the font description
files necessary to use the LGR encoded Greek fonts with some non standard
TeX PostScript fonts; for example, it automatically generates the necessary
files if using the TX or the PX fonts; with other Type 1 fonts the
necessary .fd files require manual intervention, which simply means giving
a suitable command from within another open file that loads teubner.
Please, be sure to work with an updated collection of the CBfonts;
with a *2020* updated version of the TeX system; with a babel version
3.9g or later; with the language description file greek.ldf version 1.9b
or later; teubner version 5.2 and later patches the modifications of
greek.ldf 1.10 so as cope with the ancient Greek numbering system. The
teubner package works also with previous versions of the above pieces of
software, but with limited performances.
Versions 5.8.2 and later patch some changes that
were introduced in recent versions
of the babel-greek language description file.
Version 5.8.3 should work shamelessly with both
formats of the ISO date.
