+% LaTeX Preamble for the Tibetan Transcript Translator
+% Written and collected by Beat.Steiner@gseved.admin.ch
+%
+
+% Thanks to J. Sparkes and Sam Sirlin to give me the necessary ideas
+% to solve LaTeX boxing problems
+
+
+% Vovel Macros
+
+% Sorry for using such brute force to (almost) center the
+% vovels on their main letter. The \kern commands work around the
+% fact that a \hfil is never negative.
+% A further benefit is that the ligature boxes are only as
+% wide as the main letter even if the vovel is wider.
+% Unfortunately, an \accent can not be put on boxes (generic ligatures).
