% 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).
