- Third release of CD-ROM PasTeX
- ------------------------------
-
- After the first CD-ROM version on Fresh-Fish CD Oct 93 and the
- second CD-ROM version on the Meeting Pearls I, this is now
- the third release. It's still not the PasTeX 1.4 version, but it
- includes the newest BETA version os PasTeX 1.4.
-
-
- Whats new against the first CD-ROM version:
-
- - New MetaFont version. Now MetaFont 2.71 from Andreas Scherer is
- included.
-
- - More fonts. I've added dc and wasy2 fonts.
- (dc fonts are new fonts with 256 chars per font)
-
- - More font resolutions. Now there are additional 204x196 (FAX) and
- 600x600 dpi fonts.
-
- - Some changes at the CALLMF scripts.
-
- - New TeX macros.
-
- - New printers in DVIprint.printers.
-
- - Includes a BETA version of PasTeX 1.4!
- PasTeX 1.4 BETA includes new DVIprint, new ShowDVI, brand new
- SpecialHost, TeX 3.1415 but no new docs. Wait for the real
- PasTeX 1.4 if you need the docs.
-
- - LaTeX2e
- A complete LaTeX2e version is installed in TeX:macros/latex2e.
- How to use LaTeX2e:
- o Rename TeX:config/{Big}TeX.cnf.latex2e to {Big}TeX.cnf
- (With PasTeX 1.3 you have to use bigvirtex)
- o Call TeX with "virtex &latex2e yourfile.tex"
- All LaTeX2e styles are copied to TeX:macros/latex2e/inputs.
