Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I am pleased to announce a new update for the fontspec package.
Please note it contains some changes regarding font encodings
and the xunicode package that *may* affect its interactions with
other packages.
More details in the notes below and the package documentation.
- v2.5 (2016/01/30) "TL2016 release"
* Provide a new Unicode font encoding ("TU") to replace
EU1/EU2 and
xunicode. If this causes problems, load fontspec with
the `[euenc]`
option to revert to the old behaviour.
* New command `\emfontdeclare` for defining font shapes when
arbitrarily
nesting the `\emph` command.
* Allow slanted small caps and better internal methods for
"combining"
font shapes; this fixes a few bugs.
* Incorporate "new" font script tags for Indic fonts.
E.g., when selecting `Script=Bengali`, fontspec will
first query
the font for the `bng2` OpenType script, and if not
found select `beng`.
* Restrict some font features from being able to be used within
`\addfontfeatures` that were causing some font-loading
confusion.
* Fixed behaviour in which `\baselineskip` and `\f@size` would
(possibly)
change values after loading the packge.
* Remove copy of `fixltx2e`'s code for footnote symbols;
handled by LaTeX2e now.
* Deprecate `ExternalLocation` for the simpler (and identical)
`Path` option.
* Improvement to some warnings/info messages.
* Improve structure of code.
