# plautopatch Japanese pLaTeX/upLaTeX formats and packages often conflict with other LaTeX packages which are unaware of pLaTeX/upLaTeX. In the worst case, such packages throw a fatal error or end up with a wrong output. The goal of this package "plautopatch" is that there should be no need to worry about such incompatibilities, because specific patches are loaded automatically whenever necessary. This helps not only to simplify source files, but also to make the appearance of working pLaTeX/upLaTeX sources similar to those of ordinary LaTeX ones. The following patches are currently registered: - doc (latex) -> pldocverb (maintained here!) - tracefnt (latex) -> ptrace/uptrace (platex/uplatex) - fltrace (latex) -> pfltrace (platex) - array (latex-tools) -> plarray (platex-tools) - array (latex-tools) + plext (platex) -> plextarray (platex-tools) - delarray (latex-tools) + plext (platex) -> plextdelarray (platex-tools) - colortbl + plext (platex) -> plextcolortbl (maintained here!) - arydshln -> plarydshln (maintained here!) - arydshln + plext (platex) -> plextarydshln (maintained here!) - siunitx -> plsiunitx (maintained here!) - everysel (ms) -> pxeverysel (platex-tools) - everyshi (ms) -> pxeveryshi (platex-tools) - atbegshi (oberdiek) -> pxatbegshi (platex-tools) - ftnright (latex-tools) -> pxftnright (platex-tools) - multicol (latex-tools) -> pxmulticol (platex-tools) - xspace (latex-tools) -> pxxspace (platex-tools) - textpos -> pxtextpos (maintained here!) - pdfpages -> pxpdfpages (maintained here!) - stfloats (sttools) -> pxstfloats (pxsttools) - pgfrcs (pgf) -> pxpgfrcs (maintained here!) - pgfcore (pgf) -> pxpgfmark (by Takayuki YATO) ## Requirements This package depends on "filehook" package, written by Martin Scharrer. ## Miscellaneous This bundle may distribute some tiny patches together with the main package. All packages are meant for use with pLaTeX/upLaTeX. Short information: - pldocverb.sty: Patch for doc.sty (latex) to improve compatibility with `\verb` redefinition in pLaTeX. - plextcolortbl.sty: Patch for colortbl.sty (by David Carlisle) to improve compatibility with plext.sty in pLaTeX. - plarydshln.sty: Patch for arydshln.sty (by Hiroshi Nakashima) to improve compatibility with pLaTeX kernel. - plextarydshln.sty: Patch for arydshln.sty (by Hiroshi Nakashima) to improve compatibility with plext.sty in pLaTeX. - plsiunitx.sty: Patch for siunitx.sty (by Joseph Wright) to fix conflict with plarray.sty (platex-tools). - pxtextpos.sty: Patch for textpos.sty (by Norman Gray) to support Japanese-style crop marks (called 'tombow' in Japanese). - pxpdfpages.sty: Patch for pdfpages.sty (by Andreas Matthias) to support Japanese-style crop marks (called 'tombow' in Japanese). - pxpgfrcs.sty: Patch for pgfrcs.sty (part of PGF) to support Japanese classes for vertical writing. - pxstfloats.sty: Patch for stfloats.sty (sttools) to improve compatibility with pLaTeX kernel. Actually part of pxsttols (https://github.com/aminophen/pxsttools) but included here for convenience. ## Installation - *.sty -> $TEXMF/tex/platex/plautopatch - *.tex, *.pdf -> $TEXMF/doc/platex/plautopatch ## Repository The bundle is maintained on GitHub: https://github.com/aminophen/plautopatch ## License The bundle may be distributed and/or modified under the terms of the 3-clause BSD license (see [LICENSE](./LICENSE)). ## Release Date 2020-02-25 Hironobu Yamashita
