In substance - this package is a poor man solution to the task of typesetting - math fulfilling the ISO regulations "for physical sciences and - technology" (formerly regulations ISO 31/XI, now ISO\,80000). - These regulations refer mostly to the family, series and shape - of fonts to be used with symbols of various nature. - -This package gets inspiration from the ISOmath package by Günter - Milde, but tries to get the same results without using any math - [font] groups (or families). As pdfLaTeX users may recall, this - typesetting program may see at maximum 16 math [font] groups (or - math font families); sometimes this number results in an error - that forbids the user to use the symbols s/he needs. - -The trick used in this package consists in employing text fonts - within the \text command (defined by the amsmath package that, - therefore, is a dependence to which pm-isomath is subjected) and - chose text font families, series, and shapes to be used within - that command argument. - -The commands are such as to fulfil some math requirements; for - example while in the scope of the \boldmath declaration, the - series is automatically set to bold without any user intervention. - The font size is automatically taken care by \text, so that fonts - have the correct size also while typesetting exponents or subscripts. - -Nevertheless, through proper advanced command options, the user - remains the person principally responsible of using the right - font for the right symbol in a document that must fulfil the - ISO regulations. - -This package is usable only with pdfLaTeX; LuaLaTeX and XeLaTeX - can access OpenType math fonts through the package unicode-math, - and with the "math-style=ISO" option they have the math switching - commands agree with the ISO regulations. - -pdfLATeX users have available some packages to fulfil the ISO - requirements; principally the ISOmath package that is subject - to a number of limitations due the the particular math environment - of the user, and libertinust1math that produces a complete set-up - with math fonts that match very well text fonts that are darker - than the standard default Computer Modern ones (including the - CM-super and the Latin Modern ones). - -This package works very well with the Latin Modern fonts; in - practice in math mode it uses the same Latin text fonts, and - the corresponding families, series, and shapes of the LGR - encoded CBfonts; it may work also with the CM and the CM-super - fonts, but the original author never uses them, therefore he - cannot guarantee any suitable result. - -For installation of this package, simply run the pm-isomath.dtx - through pdfLaTeX (and only pdfLaTeX); move the produced sty file - to the .../tex/latex/pm-isomath/ folder; if it does not exist, - create it; similarly move pm-isomath.dtx to .../source/latex/pm-isomath/ - and pm-isomath.pdf to .../doc/latex/pm-isomath/. - - - |
