cd $TEXMFLOCAL unzip $package.tds.zip
On a Windows system that is modern enough that it has a built-in ZIP unpacker, simply double-click on the file, and browse to where it’s to be unpacked. (We trust that those using earlier versions of Windows will already have experience of using WinZIP or the like.) Having unpacked the
.zip
archive, in most cases the only
remaining chore is to update the file indexes — as in
normal installation instructions. However, if
the package provides a font, you also need to enable the font’s map,
which is discussed in
“Installing a Type 1 font”
At the time of writing, there are rather few .tds.zip
files (by comparison with the huge number of packages that are
available). As packages are updated, the number of files is
steadily increasing, but it will be a long time before the whole set
is covered.
