It provides visually distinctive "logos" +distinguishing families of justly tuned intervals that relate to the harmonic series. These take the +form of strings of additional accidental symbols based on historical precedents, extending the +traditional sharps and flats. Since its 2020 update, HEJI ver. 2 ("HEJI2") provides unique +microtonal symbols through the 47-limit. + +The `helmholtz-ellis-ji-notation` package is a simple LaTeX implementation of HEJI2 that +allows for in-line typesetting of microtonal accidentals for use within theoretical texts, program +notes, symbol legends, etc. + +The documentation may be found in `helmholtz-ellis-ji-notation.pdf`. + + +Installation +------------ + +First, install the HEJI2Text.otf font file (available in .zip folder or from under JI RESOURCES at +plainsound.org). + +Then to install the LaTeX package, use one of the following methods: + +- Use the package manager of your TeX system + * TeXLive: `tlmgr install helmholtz-ellis-ji-notation` + * MiKTeX: search for `helmholtz-ellis-ji-notation` in the MiKTeX Package Manager + +- Get the source (`helmholtz-ellis-ji-notation.zip`) from CTAN and extract it, run `latex` on + `helmholtz-ellis-ji-notation.ins` to generate the package and configuration files, and move + all generated files into a directory where LaTeX will find them, + e.g., `MiKTeX X.X/tex/latex/helmholtz-ellis-ji-notation/`. + + +License +------- + +The HEJI2Text.otf font and all accompanying LaTeX support documents are licensed under the +Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License.
