-\title{\scshape How to use ``Old-Style Digits''\\
- with the Lucida fonts}
-\author{\textsc{Maurizio Loreti}\thanks{
- EMail: \texttt{loreti@pd.infn.it}}}
-\date{Rev.\ 1.2\quad--\quad 1999-06-10}
-\maketitle
-\noindent As a system administrator and local \TeX pert, I
-have been asked by an user to build a style file to
-automagically switch all the occurrences of a digit in the
-printed text to the so-called \emph{old-style digits}.
-
-Although I do not share the aesthetic preferences of this
-user, I have solved the problem satisfactorily; the main
-difficulty has been to understand how to define a
-\emph{virtual font}, because guidelines and examples were
-difficult to find.
-Here follows a short description of what I have done, hoping
-that other people wishing to define a virtual font will find
-it useful; I want to excuse myself for my bad english, and
-to thank Mr.\ Allin Cottrell, whose examples for Computer
-Modern have been an important starting point\/\footnote{They
- may be found under his web page in
- \texttt{http://www.wfu.edu/\textasciitilde cottrell}.}.
-
-A couple of notes: the old-style digits are in the
-LucidaNewMath-AltItalic font (normal weight) and in the
-LucidaNewMath-AltDemiItalic font (DemiBold weight); the
-latter is in the ``Lucida Expert'' font package, that is
-\emph{required} in order to obtain \emph{bold} old-style
-digits.
-
-All the \verb|.fd|, \verb|.tfm| and \verb|.vf| auxilliary
-files are built with Unix command procedures for the
-\verb|bash| shell, freely available from the Free Software
-Foundation\/\footnote{By anonymous ftp from
- \texttt{prep.ai.mit.edu} (and its mirrors) in
- \texttt{/pub/gnu}; download \texttt{/pub/gnu/GNUinfo/FTP}
- for a list of the mirror sites.}; the only used features
-missing from the usual Bourne shell environment
-(\verb|/bin/sh|) are:
-\begin{itemize}
-\item The parameter expansion commands like
- \texttt{\$\{par\%word\}} and \texttt{\$\{par\#word\}}:
- they first expand ``word'' to a pattern, and then remove
- from the end (the former) or from the beginning (the
- latter) of the expansion of the environment variable
- ``par'' the substring matching that pattern (in a Bourne
- shell environment they may be easily simulated with
- \verb|sed| pipes).
-\item The command substitution syntax: \verb|$(command)| is
- the \verb|bash| equivalent of the Bourne shell construct
- \verb|`command`|.
-\end{itemize}
-
-All the file manipulation is done with \verb|awk| programs;
-in our installation, the \verb|GNU| version of \verb|awk|
-comes first in the path: but the \verb|GNU| extensions to
-the language are not used, and any \verb|awk| flavour should
-understand these programs.
-
-\section{The style file}
-\verb|lucold.sty| is the style file; it has two options,
-\verb|text| (or \verb|notext|) and \verb|math| (or
-\verb|nomath|), to select (or, respectively, deselect)
-old-style digits in the text mode and in the math mode.
-The default options are \verb|[text,nomath]|; when
-\verb|notext| and \verb|math| are both explicitely selected,
-a warning is printed and \verb|notext| changed to
-\verb|text|: since having old-style digits in the
-mathematics and not in the text has poor meaning (in my
-opinion, of course).
-
-\verb|lucold.sty| is straightforward, being just a wrapper
-around the single command that remaps the text default font
-family to \verb|hlos| (in the current encoding), and the
-additional commands that remap the math-mode digits to the
-text font; the style file for Lucida, \verb|lucidabr.sty|,
-normally uses \verb|hlh| as default text font family.
-
-\section{The font definition files}
-The second step is the creation of the \verb|.fd| files for
-\verb|hlos| in the needed encodings; the \verb|OT1| (or
-Knuth) encoding is the default, but here in Italy we mainly
-use the \verb|T1| (or Cork) encoding.
-
-\begin{figure}[htbp]
- \begin{bigbox}
-\begin{verbatim}
- #! /bin/bash
-
- cp $TETEXDIR/texmf/tex/latex/lucidabr/*t1hlh.fd .
-
- for infile in *.fd
- do outfile="${infile%h.fd}os.fd"
- awk >$outfile -f makefd.awk -v infile=$infile
- done
-
- rm *t1hlh.fd
-\end{verbatim}
- \end{bigbox}
- \caption{the \texttt{makefd} shell procedure.}
- \label{fig:fd}
-\end{figure}
-
-The two font definition files \verb|ot1hlos.fd| and
-\verb|t1hlos.fd| are easily obtained using
-\verb|[o]t1hlh.fd| as a template; the shell procedure in
-figure \ref{fig:fd} does exactly that.
-The \verb|awk| program \verb|makefd.awk| remaps all the
-upright fonts of the \verb|hlos| family to a new set of
-(virtual) fonts, called
-\begin{center}
- \begin{tabular}{|c|c||c|c|}
- \hline
- & & New & Original \\
- Encoding & Weight & Font & Font \\
- \hline \hline
- \verb|OT1| & Normal & \verb|hlor7t| & \verb|hlhr7t| \\
- \verb|OT1| & Bold & \verb|hlob7t| & \verb|hlhb7t| \\
- \verb|T1| & Normal & \verb|hlor8t| & \verb|hlhr8t| \\
- \verb|T1| & Bold & \verb|hlob8t| & \verb|hlhb8t| \\
- \hline
- \end{tabular}
-\end{center}
-using as a template the input file given as a parameter in
-the \verb|-v| command option.
-All the other variants (italic, slanted, \ldots) of the
-\verb|hlos| family are left mapped to the same fonts used in
-the original \verb|.fd| files.
-
-\section{The \TeX\ font metric files}
-The third step is the creation of the \verb|.tfm| files:
-essentially, the shell procedure of figure \ref{fig:tfm}
-copies some of the metric files of the original fonts of the
-\verb|hlh| family to the current directory; then converts
-them to an human-readable form (\verb|.pl| files) using
-\verb|tftopl|; then, using \verb|maketfm.awk|, substitutes
-the section describing the digits with the corresponding
-section taken from the \verb|.tfm| files of the fonts with
-the old-style digits, i.e.\ \verb|hlcrima| (normal weight)
-and \verb|hlcdima| (boldface).
-
-\begin{figure}[htbp]
- \begin{bigbox}
-\begin{verbatim}
- #! /bin/bash
-
- cp $TETEXDIR/texmf/fonts/tfm/bh/lubright/hlh??t.tfm .
- cp $TETEXDIR/texmf/fonts/tfm/bh/lumath/hlc?im*.tfm .
-
- for file in *.tfm
- do tftopl $file ${file%tfm}pl
- done
-
- awk >hlor7t.pl -f maketfm.awk \
- -v infile1=hlhr7t.pl -v infile2=hlcrima.pl
- awk >hlob7t.pl -f maketfm.awk \
- -v infile1=hlhb7t.pl -v infile2=hlcdima.pl
- awk >hlor8t.pl -f maketfm.awk \
- -v infile1=hlhr8t.pl -v infile2=hlcrima.pl
- awk >hlob8t.pl -f maketfm.awk \
- -v infile1=hlhb8t.pl -v infile2=hlcdima.pl
-
- pltotf hlor7t.pl hlor7t.tfm
- pltotf hlob7t.pl hlob7t.tfm
- pltotf hlor8t.pl hlor8t.tfm
- pltotf hlob8t.pl hlob8t.tfm
-
- rm hl???t.pl hlc?im*.tfm
-\end{verbatim}
- \end{bigbox}
- \caption{the \texttt{maketfm} shell procedure.}
- \label{fig:tfm}
-\end{figure}
-
-Next, the merged \verb|.pl| files are converted to binary
-\verb|.tfm| files with \verb|pltotf|; and, finally, the few
-files that are no more needed are removed.
-
-\section{The virtual font files}
-\begin{figure}[htbp]
- \begin{bigbox}
-\begin{verbatim}
- #! /bin/bash
-
- cp $TETEXDIR/texmf/fonts/vf/bh/lubright/hlh??t.vf .
-
- for file in hlh??t.vf
- do base="${file%vf}"
- vftovp ${base}vf ${base}tfm ${base}vpl
- done
-
- to="hlor7t"; from="hlhr7t.vpl"; mft="hlcrima"
- ck="$(grep CHECKSUM ${mft}.pl | cut -d" " -f3 | sed 's/)//')"
- awk >tmp -f maketfm.awk -v infile1=$from -v infile2=${mft}.pl
- awk >${to}.vpl -f makevf.awk -v infile=tmp \
- -v mft=$mft -v ck=$ck
- vptovf ${to}.vpl ${to}.vf ${to}.tfm
- rm tmp
-
- to="hlob7t"; from="hlhb7t.vpl"; mft="hlcdima"
- ck="$(grep CHECKSUM ${mft}.pl | cut -d" " -f3 | sed 's/)//')"
- awk >tmp -f maketfm.awk -v infile1=$from -v infile2=${mft}.pl
- awk >${to}.vpl -f makevf.awk -v infile=tmp \
- -v mft=$mft -v ck=$ck
- vptovf ${to}.vpl ${to}.vf ${to}.tfm
- rm tmp
-
- to="hlor8t"; from="hlhr8t.vpl"; mft="hlcrima"
- ck="$(grep CHECKSUM ${mft}.pl | cut -d" " -f3 | sed 's/)//')"
- awk >tmp -f maketfm.awk -v infile1=$from -v infile2=${mft}.pl
- awk >${to}.vpl -f makevf.awk -v infile=tmp \
- -v mft=$mft -v ck=$ck
- vptovf ${to}.vpl ${to}.vf ${to}.tfm
- rm tmp
-
- to="hlob8t"; from="hlhb8t.vpl"; mft="hlcdima"
- ck="$(grep CHECKSUM ${mft}.pl | cut -d" " -f3 | sed 's/)//')"
- awk >tmp -f maketfm.awk -v infile1=$from -v infile2=${mft}.pl
- awk >${to}.vpl -f makevf.awk -v infile=tmp \
- -v mft=$mft -v ck=$ck
- vptovf ${to}.vpl ${to}.vf ${to}.tfm
- rm tmp *.pl *.vpl hlh*.tfm hlh*.vf
-\end{verbatim}
- \end{bigbox}
- \caption{the \texttt{makevf} shell procedure.}
- \label{fig:vf}
-\end{figure}
-
-The last step is the generation of the \verb|.vf| files;
-their human-readable form (the \verb|.vpl| files) are
-essentially \verb|.pl| files, with the addition of some
-sections: a \verb|VTITLE|, one or more \verb|MAPFONT| records
-describing the real fonts, and a \verb|MAP| entry in the
-record of every character describing how to obtain it from
-a real font.
-In the figure \ref{fig:vf}, the shell procedure that
-builds the \verb|.vf| files is listed; it performs the
-following steps:
-\begin{itemize}
-\item The \verb|.vf| files for the original fonts are copied
- to the current directory, and converted to \verb|.vpl|
- files using \verb|vftovp|;
-\item The checksum of the \verb|.tfm| file from which the
- old-style digits are taken is extracted from the
- corresponding \verb|.pl| file, and stored in the \verb|ck|
- environment variable;
-\item The program \verb|maketfm.awk| is executed, to
- substitute the section of every \verb|.vpl| file
- describing digits with the corresponding section for the
- old-style digits (taken from the relevant \verb|.pl|
- file): note that in that step the \verb|MAP| entry for
- every digit is lost;
-\item The program \verb|makevf.awk|, that adds
- to the \verb|.vpl| file a valid \verb|MAPFONT| record and
- valid \verb|MAP| entries for every digit, is executed;
-\item The \verb|.vpl| files are converted to binary using
- \verb|vptovf|, and a final cleanup is performed.
-\end{itemize}
-
-What is left is simply to move the \verb|*.sty|,
-\verb|*.fd|, \verb|*.tfm| and \verb|*.vf| files to the right
-directory of the \TeX\ tree.
