Run teubner.ins through LaTeX; the generated file is -teubner.sty and must be moved where TeX the program can find it. -This depends very much on your particular implementation of the -TeX system, but if your system copes with the standard TeX -directory structure and with a multiplicity of different root -directory structures, you probably have a localtexmf root, -containing a tex directory which on turn contains a latex -directory. Under the latter directory create a new directory, -named, say, teubner, and move there teubner.sty. +This new version allows the typesetter to use both "italic" shapes: the Olga-like +and the Lipsian-like ones; it contains extended accent macros that avoid the kerning +problems that arise with the ligature mechanism embedded in the LGR encoded default +CBgreek fonts; is compatible with the use of different scalable Latin Type~1 fonts; contains new designs for the horizontally stretchable markers, et cetera. -I suggest you to create a directory teubner in the doc directory -of the localtexmf rooted structure and move there both -teubner-doc.pdf and teubner.dvi that you get by running LaTeX -directly on teubner.dtx. +The byproducts of the installation consists in a LGRaccents-gyphs.def file that might +be separately input and used also without the teubner bundle. Moreover this new +version generates on the fly the necessary font description files necessary to use the +LGR encoded Greek fonts with non TeX standard PostScript fonts; for example it +automatically generates the necessary .fd files if using the TX or the PX fonts; with +other Type 1 fonts the necessary .fd files require manual intervention, which simply +means giving a suitable command from within another open file that loads teubner. -For what concerns the fonts, I suggest you download the type 1 pdf fonts -from CTAN: there you can get also the tfm files and the sources for all -the Greek and metric symbol files; in case you prefer to use the raster -fonts generated by METAFONT you can download also the source METAFONT -files. - - -In the texmf rooted directory structure there should be a file -under fontname, named special.map; edit such file and possibly add the -line - -gmtr public teubner - -possibly preceded by a comment line of the form - -@c Metric symbols font - -This last task is not really necessary, but it is useful, because -the generated tfm and pixel files will be automatically deposited -in the proper directories, with no confusion with other fonts. - -Another important step is to control that you have the latest CB -Greek fonts; even if you got them installed with the TeX system -installation program, may be they are not the latest version, -compatible with this extension package. Control your cbgreek.txt -file and at the end of the file there is its date; this date -should be not earlier than 15th of August 2002. If the date is earlier -than this, connect to CTAN and download the latest version of the CB -Greek fonts both in METAFONT and in pfb type 1 format. Follow the -instructions for inserting the proper files in the proper directories, -and for adding the proper map file to the configuration files of dvips -and pdfLaTeX. If you already had the metric tfm files, remember to -delete them in order to have them generated on the fly by LaTeX or -pdfLaTeX, or download the newer tfm files from CTAN. - - -Another question you might ask yourself: is my TeX system complete and -up to date? The fact you installed a TeX system and you did not have the -CB fonts may be an index that you still have the babel package locked at -a version number earlier than 3.7. I suggest you to upgrade your TeX -system to the most up to date one you can find on CTAN. - -After all these steps are done, you are ready to use your teubner -extensions; it will not be easy at the beginning, because there -are hundreds of new commands. Be sure to have already thoroughly -read the documentation file teubner-doc.pdf and that you have the -hard copy close to you.
