What is CTeX? + +CTeX 2.1 is a pure and portable extension of TeX and its DVI drivers. +It is designed specifically for the professional oriental language +typesetting community. In CTeX, oriental languages are not longer +the ``foreign languages'' in the TeX community. All features of the +existing TeX and its DVI drivers are extended to the oriental languages. +In addition, CTeX provides the following unique features for the +professional document production: + o supporting multiple oriental languages and coding schemes ( up to 128 ) + in a single document. + o supporting a large number of oriental fonts up to 128. An oriental + font is a font of thousands characters. For instance, GB Kai Ti is + taken as one font of 6,763 chars. + o supporting both outline and bitmap fonts. The outline font manager + of CTeX is just much faster than any other font managers. For instance, + on a 486/33MHz PC, it generates 17 distinct characters per second. + o supporting user defined bitmap symbols. The Quick Bitmap Interface, + as a standard component of CTeX, lets you generate bitmap symbols in + one step. + o spliting your printer files. You not longer need to worry about the + printer errors due to your extensive use of fonts, and you not longer + need to split your TeX files because of the limited font capacity of + your printer. + +2. HOW TO INSTALL CTeX DEMO? + +2.1 If you obtained the CTeX demo from network distribution: + + Copy the file demo.exe to directory on hard disk, say, c:\ctexdemo. + Demo.exe is a self-extracting file. + Type +demo + to extract the installation files, and type +install + +2.2 If you obtained the CTeX demo from a normal distribution: + +Insert demo disk into drive b: or a: +type +b: or a: +then type +install + +Please follow the interactive instructions to complete the installation. + +3. RUN A DEMO + +After installation, you have several printer files on the directory: +corder.hp, cccdemo.hp, c1ccdemo.hp (for HP printers) and +corder.ps (for PostScript printers). +All of these files are produced by CTeX system. + +Now you are able to run dvic, the CTeX dvi-driver. + +type: +dvic order.dvi + +You will get a printer file order.xx. The order.dvi was produced using +TeX 3.14 and it contains 50 Kai Ti Chinese outline characters. The demo +version of dvic supports up to only 60 oriental language characters in one +single document. + +Print out the file corder.ps or corder.hp and the cccdemo.hp and c1ccdemo.hp. + +4. ORDER + +Print out the file: +order.hp ( on HP printer ) +or +order.ps ( on Postscript printer ) + +You will find out more information regarding the software. Fill out the +order form and send out today. + +5. OTHERS + +Prosoft International has other products/services available: +5.1 Software developers' kit: CTeX outline and bitmap font manager +integration kit. With this kit, software developers not longer need to +develop their own font managers. The CTeX font manager is simply the +fastest font manager. Currently we have 10 Chinese outline fonts and +more fonts will be produced via our outline production line. + +5.2 Outline Font Production Service. +We provide service of converting bitmap fonts to outline fonts at price of +$1.00 per character. Contact us for more detail. + +-------------------------------------------------------------- +Prosoft International, P.O.
