  22.                       virtual fonts / tfm files for Hangul standard fonts.
  23.                 changed:
  24.                     font selection: modified .fd-files needed:
  25.                       structure of .fd-files much more simplified.
  26.  
  27. Version 2.1 :   new:
  28. 28-Sep-1994         optional parameters to CJK size functions added.
  29.  
  30.                     sCJK size function added.
  31.  
  32.                     CJK* environment added: spaces after CJK characters
  33.                       will be swallowed.
  34.  
  35.                     Utility programs hbf2hbf and hbf2cjk added.
  36.                 changed:
  37.                     new Big 5 encoded fonts needed (more compressed) - saves
  38.                       about 13 TeX subfonts per Big 5 encoded font.
  39.  
  40.                     modified example .fd-files .
  41.                 errors:
  42.                     Bg5text environment to pmC-Bg5 environment added.
  43.  
  44.                     pmC emulation will now use compatible font names, i.e.
  45.                       wcb5a1, wcb5a2 etc.
  46.  
  47. Version 2.2 :   new:
  48. 18-Oct-1994         CJK now supports hangul and hanja together. Two different
  49.                       sets of subfonts are used as defined in Uhangul.fd and
  50.                       Uhanja.fd .
  51.  
  52.                     CJK punctuation characters (fullwidth comma, colon,
  53.                       semicolon etc.) will not start a line. CJK opening

  58.  
  59.                     \lccode's will only be reset if the new `lowercase' option
  60.                       is set. This function is so seldom used that I decided
  61.                       to separate it from setting \uccode's. You need less
  62.                       save size if `encapsulated' is used without `lowercase'.
  63.  
  64.                     C source of hbf2cjk replaced with CWEB source. 
  65.                       .dvi files of hbf2hbf and hbf2cjk added.

  73.  
  74.                     modified example .fd-files.

  76.                     new Hangul .vf and .tfm files.
  77.  
  78.                     definition of \CJKglue changed.
  79.  
  80.                     HBF API now supports HBF 1.1 (CHARS optional).
  81.  
  82.                     fine-tuning to hbf2cjk added
  83.                       (Sam Chiu <ccc11@cus.cam.ac.uk>).
  84.                 errors:
  85.                     CJK* didn't work in sectioning commands
  86.                       (Wu Guangxi <wuxi@unixg.ubc.ca>).
  87.  
  88. Version 2.21:   errors:

  97.                     CNS coding scheme added.
  98.  
  99.                     hbf2gf added.
  100.                       This program merges bmf2gf, hbf2cjk, and hbf2hbf; it
  101.                       will be about 10 times faster than hbf2cjk.
  102.                       Consequently, hbf2cjk and hbf2hbf were removed.
  103.                 changed:
  104.                     only \uppercase disabled (see error).
  105.

  116.                       starting with the value of the first byte of the first
  117.                       code range.
  118.  
  119.                     Bg5conv.tex added: this is a small preprocessor which
  120.                       converts Big 5 encoded characters `XY' into the form
  121.                       `XZZZ.' . Now you can use Big 5 encoding without the
  122.                       annoying Bg5text environment.
  123.                       Auxiliary files: Bg5pp.enc, pmCsmpp.enc, and
  124.                       bg5latex.bat .
  125.

  133.  
  134.                     pmC encodings didn't work
  135.                       (Zhang Zhengyou <Zhengyou.Zhang@sophia.inria.fr>).
  136.  
  137.                     \CJK@charToHex and \CJK@numbToHex could erroneously change
  138.                       page counter (Li Yu-Ray <r82111@ew.ee.ntu.edu.tw>).
  139.

  142.  
  143.                     options `dos' and `dosdebug' to makefiles added for
  144.                       compiling with djgpp.
  145.  
  146.                     new keywords `design_size', `target_size', and `tfm_files'
  147.                       added to hbf2gf. If `tfm_files' is `no', creation of

  157.  
  158.                     the definition of the CEF encoding has changed; it uses
  159.                       now HTML-macros to identify CNS codes. A preprocessor
  160.                       CEFconv.tex/CEF5conv.tex has been added to handle these
  161.                       macros. This converter allows additionally
  162.                       simplifications of CNS.sty and CNS.chr .
  163.  
  164.                     if only one of the keywords `dpi_x' or `dpi_y' is given in
  165.                       the hbf2gf config file the other printer resolution will
  166.                       be set equal to the given one.
  167.  
  168.                     the key values `on' and `off' in the hbf2gf config file 
  169.                       are replaced with `yes' and `no'.
  170.  
  171.                 errors:
  172.                     if two Big 5 environments were stacked, the Bg5text
  173.                       environment was defined twice causing an error
  174.                       (Yang Jinn S. <v30yjs@v0sun11.ccl.itri.org.tw>).
  175.  
  176.                     \CJK@punctEnc was undefined in pmC-Bg5 environment
  177.                       (Yang Jinn S. <v30yjs@v0sun11.ccl.itri.org.tw>).
  178.  
  179.                     pmC-Bg5 encoding did not work in preprocessed mode
  180.                       (Yang Jinn S. <v30yjs@v0sun11.ccl.itri.org.tw>).
  181.  
  182.                     Bg5conv.tex and CEFconv.tex/CEF5conv.tex will fail under
  183.                       the web2c-TeX implementation because \write commands
  184.                       will not output 8bit characters. C programs which do the
  185.                       same were added.
  186.  
  187.                     wrong \CJK@min and \CJK@max values for some encodings.
