Description - -ArmTeX is an Armenian system for TeX/LaTeX(2e)/METAFONT. It can -be used with standard Latin keyboard without any special encoding -and/or support for Armenian letters. It can also be used with -any keyboard which uses encoding having Armenian letters in -the second half (characters 128-255) of extended ASCII table -(for example ArmSCII8 Armenian standard). - -This is a freeware system by S. Dachian, A. Dalalyan -and V. Hakobian. - -Feel free to give copies of this system to your friends, and be -sure to include ALL the files, including this and other text files. -Feel also free to use our code for producing your own software. -But don't ever change and/or alter the ArmTeX system without our -special permission. - -If you have any questions you can contact us via e-mail at: - -Serguei.Dachian@univ-lemans.fr -dalalyan@lx2.yerphi.am -vakopian@usc.edu - - - -2. Installation - - a) If you are upgrading from ArmTeX 1.0, you should first -"uninstall" it, since the changes from version 1.0 to 2.0 are -important (see also ArmTeX manual). Not only some files were -changed, some old files removed and some new files added, but -also transcription scheme was modified, so that a slight -(re)editing of your own documents typed with ArmTeX 1.0 is -necessary. So, first remove all the files related to ArmTeX 1.0 -(the files which are part of it, as well as, say, "generated" -"pk" files) and be sure to read about changes of transcription -scheme in ArmTeX manual. - - b) Put files from "mf" directory somewhere your METAFONT can -find them (generally this is something like "mfinput" or "source" -directory; refer to your METAFONT release manual or ask a -local guru). - - c) Put files from "tfm" directory somewhere your METAFONT can -find them (generally this is something like "tfm" directory; -refer to your METAFONT release manual or ask a local guru). - - d) Put files from "plain" directory somewhere your TeX compiler -(in plain mode) can find them (generally this is something like -"texinput" or "plain" directory; refer to your TeX release manual -or ask a local guru). - - e) Put files from "latex" directory somewhere your TeX compiler -(in LaTeX2e mode) can find them (generally this is something like -"latexinput" or "latex" directory; refer to your TeX release manual -or ask a local guru). - -Now everything is ready, and you should be able to compile the -example and documantation files from "examples" directory. The -latter contains two subdirectories: "plain" and "latex". The -files from the first one should be compiled with plain TeX -(usually "tex" command), and the files from the second one should -be compiled with LaTeX2e (usually "latex" command). - -To type your own documents (in Plain TeX or LaTeX) read the ArmTeX -manual (in Armenian). It is in the "manual.tex" file from "latex" -subdirectory of "examples" directory. Its PostScript version -("manual.ps") is also included in ArmTeX 2.0 (it is in the root -directory of the distribution, along with this "readme.txt" file) -in the case you want to see the manual before installation [or you -don't have LaTeX2e:-)]. - - - -3. About fonts - -The ArmTeX system includes two families of fonts: - - a) artmr10, artmsl10, artmi10, artmb10, artmbs10 and artmbi10: -Serif font (something like Times New Roman or Computer Modern Roman) -with its Slanted, Italic, Bold, BoldSlanted and BoldItalic versions. - -These fonts were converted from the TrueType font family -"ArTarumianTimes" made by Ruben Hakobian(Tarumian). We would -like to thank him for giving us the permission to use his fonts. - - b) arssr10, arsssl10, arssb10 and arssbs10: Sans Serif font -(something like Arial or Computer Modern Sans Serif) with its -Slanted, Bold and BoldSlanted versions. - -These fonts were converted from the PostScript font "Sassoun". -This font was originally created and released as "Sassoun" (c) 1994 -Raffi Kojian (n_w$$h). It is freeware, and can be found at -http://www.cilicia.com/armo8.html with complete documentation. Any -alteration for release must be cleared by Raffi. We would like once -more to thank Raffi for giving us the permission to use his font. - - - -4. Known problems - -The spacing and kerning of the fonts may not always look very good -(especially when the Armenian intonation signs are involved). -Actually, using 128-long encoding OT6 it seems difficult to -do better. The 256-long encoding T6 is reserved for future -releases of ArmTeX which will include and Armenian and Latin -characters in the font, as well as some "accented" symbols to -solve spacing and kerning problems. - -If you have any other problem [normally you shouldn't ;-)] don't -hesitate to contact us. Any bug reports and/or suggestions for -improving the ArmTeX are welcome. Our e-mail addresses are: - -Serguei.Dachian@univ-lemans.fr -dalalyan@lx2.yerphi.am -vakopian@usc.edu |
