2003-09-08 Thread Giuseppe Bilotta
Hello people, I'd like to inform you on the current status and short-term forecast for e-Omega. The current official release is versioned 3.14159--1.15--2.1 (RC1) and is based on Omega 1.15 and e-TeX 2.1; even though it is just considered a Release Candidate, it's stable enough for production use

Well, it's me again. I spent the entire weekend trying to set this up, but so far, I haven't had any real success. I tried a couple of things like different encodings with pfaedit, I tried texfont, fontinst, t1utils... I thought that defining the ligatures in a .vf-file would be the best approa

Yes, I actually tried Kerkis, it may be appropriate for modern Greek, but I find it ugly for classical texts. When I do this texfont --encoding=gpkerkis --vendor=me --collection=Oxonia --makepath --install and try the font, I don't get any Greek glyphs - strange. ___

Willi, thanks for your reply! The problem is: I do have proper tfm-files, and the font is installed properly (since it works). But given that classical (polytonic) Greek demands some unusual features, I think I will have to adapt the font by hand. On the /showfont map, for example, I can see t
