With XeTeX or LuaTeX, it loads the file greek-euenc.def. Typesetting Greek texts requires a font containing Greek letters. With the XeTeX or LuaTeX engines, the user should ensure that the choosen font contains the required glyphs (the default Latin Modern fonts have only capital Greek letters). Examples for suitable fonts are the “Deja Vu” or the “Linux Libertine” OpenType fonts. \section{LICR input} The example from \texttt{usage.tex} in \emph{babel-greek} input using the LICR macros: \begin{quote} \textTau\'\textiota{} \textphi\'\texteta\textiota\textfinalsigma\texterotimatiko{} \<\textIota\textdelta\`\textomega\textnu{} \>\textepsilon\textnu\texttheta\'\textepsilon\textdelta\textepsilon{} \textpi\textalpha\~\textiota\textdelta\'\' \>\textepsilon\textlambda\textepsilon\textupsilon\texttheta\'\textepsilon\textrho\textalpha\textnu\\ \texttau\`\textalpha\textfinalsigma{} \textpi\textlambda\texteta\textsigma\'\textiota\textomicron\textnu{} \textNu\'\textupsilon\textmu\textphi\textalpha\textfinalsigma{} \textsigma\texttau\textepsilon\textphi\textalpha\textnu\textomicron\~\textupsilon\textsigma\textalpha\textnu{}, \textSigma\'\textomega\textsigma\texttau\textrho\textalpha\texttau\textepsilon{},\\ \>\textepsilon\textrho\~\textomega\textnu{} \'\textalpha\textpi\~\texteta\textlambda\texttheta\textepsilon\textfinalsigma{} \textepsilon\>\textupsilon\texttheta\'\textupsilon\textfinalsigma\texterotimatiko{} \end{quote} \subsection{Greek alphabet} Greek letters via LICR macros: \textAlpha{} \textBeta{} \textGamma{} \textDelta{} \textEpsilon{} \textZeta{} \textEta{} \textTheta{} \textIota{} \textKappa{} \textLambda{} \textMu{} \textNu{} \textXi{} \textOmicron{} \textPi{} \textRho{} \textSigma{} \textTau{} \textUpsilon{} \textPhi{} \textChi{} \textPsi{} \textOmega{} \textalpha{} \textbeta{} \textgamma{} \textdelta{} \textepsilon{} \textzeta{} \texteta{} \texttheta{} \textiota{} \textkappa{} \textlambda{} \textmu{} \textnu{} \textxi{} \textomicron{} \textpi{} \textrho{} \textsigma{} \texttau{} \textupsilon{} \textphi{} \textchi{} \textpsi{} \textomega{} The small sigma is set with a different glyph if it ends a word: \begin{itemize} \item[\textsigma] textsigma \item[\textfinalsigma] textfinalsigma or textvarsigma \end{itemize} In the Latin transcription, the letter `s' stands for \verb|\textautosigma| which automatically chooses the glyph according to the position. \subsection{Additional Greek symbols} \textkoppa{} textkoppa \\ % ϟ \textqoppa{} textqoppa (archaic koppa) \\ % ϙ \textQoppa{} textQoppa (archaic Koppa) \\ % Ϙ \textstigma{} textstigma \\ % ϛ % \textvarstigma{} textvarstigma \\ % no separate Unicode character \textStigma{} textStigma (Sigma-Tau-Ligature in CB-fonts)% \footnote{the name “stigma” originally applied to a medieval sigma-tau ligature, whose shape was confusably similar to the cursive digamma} \\ % Ϛ \textsampi{} textsampi \\ % ϡ \textSampi{} textSampi \\ % Ϡ \textdigamma{} textdigamma \\ % ϝ (\digamma used by amsmath!) \textDigamma{} textDigamma \\ % Ϝ % numeral signs: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_numerals \textdexiakeraia{} textdexiakeraia \\ % ʹ \textaristerikeraia{} textaristerikeraia \\ % ͵ Mathematical notation uses variant shapes for pi, kappa, rho, theta, and phi as additional symbols. These variations have no syntactic meaning in Greek text and are not given separate code-points in the LGR text encoding. Some text fonts use the variant shapes in place of the “regular” ones. TeX's concept of “standard” vs. “variant” symbols does not map to the distinction between “Greek Letter ...” vs. “Greek Symbol ...” in the Unicode standard: \begin{tabular}{cccc} math symbol & Unicode «letter» & var math symbol & Unicode «symbol» \\ $\pi$ & π & $\varpi$ & ϖ \\ $\rho$ & ρ & $\varrho$ & ϱ \\ $\theta$ & θ & $\vartheta$ & ϑ \\ $\epsilon$ & ε & $\varepsilon$ & ϵ \\ $\phi$ & φ & $\varphi$ & ϕ \\ $\beta$ & β & \emph{missing} & ϐ \\ $\kappa$ & κ & \emph{missing} & ϰ \\ $\Theta$ & Θ & \emph{missing} & ϴ \\ \end{tabular} \subsection{Diacritics} Greek diacritcs can be input by named macro or symbol macro. Named macros are defined in xunicode-greek.sty for \verb|\LastDeclaredEncoding| (here \LastDeclaredEncoding). \acctonos\textalpha \'\textalpha{} \acctonos x\'x \accvaria\textalpha \`\textalpha{} \accvaria x\`x \accdialytika\textiota \"\textiota{} \accdialytika x\"x \accperispomeni\textalpha \~\textalpha{} \accperispomeni x\~x \accpsili\textalpha \>\textalpha{} \accpsili x\>x \accdasia\textalpha \<\textalpha{} \accdasia x\α \accdasia α \<α Please mail a feature request if there is demand for definitions selecting precomposed characters. As proof of concept, this document defines a composite command for alpha with psili and perispomeni. Compare \<~α with \>~α. Composite commands for combined diacritics are defined in “greek-fontenc.def”, also for the \verb|\LastDeclaredEncoding|. There are composite definitions for all precomposed characters, the fallback definition uses combining characters: \accdialytikatonos\textiota{} \"'\textiota{} \"\'\textiota{} \accdialytikatonos x \"'x \"\'x \accdialytikavaria\textiota{} \"`\textiota{} \"\`\textiota{} \accdialytikavaria x \"`x \"\`x \accdialytikaperispomeni\textiota{} \~"\textiota{} \~\"\textiota{} \accdialytikaperispomeni x \~"x \~\"x \accdasiaoxia\textiota{} \<'\textiota{} \<\'\textiota{} \accdasiaoxia x \<'x \<\'x \accdasiavaria\textiota{} \<`\textiota{} \<\`\textiota{} \accdasiavaria x \<`x \<\`x \accdasiaperispomeni\textiota{} \~<\textiota{} \~\<\textiota{} \accdasiaperispomeni x \~'\textiota{} \>\'\textiota{} \accpsilioxia x \>'x \>\'x \accpsilivaria\textiota{} \>`\textiota{} \>\`\textiota{} \accpsilivaria x \>`x \>\`x \accpsiliperispomeni\textiota{} \~>\textiota{} \~\>\textiota{} \accpsiliperispomeni x \~>x \~\>x Problems: Composite diacritics with breathings overlap when set using two combining characters (in the tested fonts). Upcasing with \verb|\MakeUppercase| drops diacritics (except dialytika and sub-iota): \MakeUppercase{ \accdialytikatonos\textiota \"'\textiota{} \accdialytikatonos x \"'x \accdialytikavaria\textiota \"`\textiota{} \accdialytikavaria x \"`x \accdialytikaperispomeni\textiota \~"\textiota{} \accdialytikaperispomeni x \~"x } \MakeUppercase{ \accdasiaoxia\textiota \<'\textiota{} \accdasiaoxia x \<'x \accdasiavaria\textiota \<`\textiota{} \accdasiavaria x \<`x \accdasiaperispomeni\textiota \~<\textiota{} \accdasiaperispomeni x \~'\textiota{} \accpsilioxia x \>'x \accpsilivaria\textiota \>`\textiota{} \accpsilivaria x \>`x \accpsiliperispomeni\textiota \~>\textiota{} \accpsiliperispomeni x \~>x } However, when the tonos, varia, and perispomeni accents are input using the symbol macros (\verb|\' \` \~|), they behave like standard accents with XeTeX/LuaTeX. If these accents should be dropped by MakeUppercase, they must be input as named macro: \MakeUppercase{ \acctonos\textalpha \'\textalpha{} \acctonos x\'x \accvaria\textalpha \`\textalpha{} \accvaria x\`x \accperispomeni\textalpha \~\textalpha{} \accperispomeni x\~x } The sub-iota is input after the base letter. Ligature definitions in the 8-bit LGR fonts ensure that precomposed characters are used. This does not work with Unicode fonts:\footnote{% When copy/pasting generated output from the “evince” PDF viewer, the COMBINING GREEK YPOGEGRAMMENI is merged with the base character. A capital letter + combining ypogegrammeni results in GREEK CAPITAL LETTER ... WITH [.. AND] PROSGEGRAMMENI). This indicates that for a subfix (in contrast to post-fix) prosgegrammeni, the combining \emph{ypogegrammeni} could be used together with a captial base letter.} \textalpha\ypogegrammeni{} x\ypogegrammeni{} \textAlpha\prosgegrammeni{} X\prosgegrammeni, see also the \emph{Greek extended} Unicode block below. Both, the standard LaTeX and the “xunicode” composite mechanism require the first part of a composite definition to be a macro requiring one argument. I.e. selecting pre-defined characters with sub-iota would require prefix \verb|\accypogegrammeni| and \verb|\accprosgegrammeni| accent macros and composite definitions for all combination of letters and letters with diacritic and sub-iota. \subsection{Greek and Coptic Unicode block} Greek symbols from the Greek and Coptic Unicode block are fully supported: % NR Unicode Name % babel name, UCS name % 0370 GREEK CAPITAL LETTER HETA % Ͱ % 0371 GREEK SMALL LETTER HETA % ͱ % 0372 GREEK CAPITAL LETTER ARCHAIC SAMPI % Ͳ % 0373 GREEK SMALL LETTER ARCHAIC SAMPI % Ͳ \textnumeralsigngreek{} % ʹ \anwtonos, \textdexiakeraia \textnumeralsignlowergreek{} % ͵ \katwtonos, \textaristerikeraia, % 0376 GREEK CAPITAL LETTER PAMPHYLIAN DIGAMMA % Ͷ % 0377 GREEK SMALL LETTER PAMPHYLIAN DIGAMMA % ͷ \textcompwordmark\ypogegrammeni{} % ͺ \textsubiota{\empty} % 037B GREEK SMALL REVERSED LUNATE SIGMA SYMBOL % % 037C GREEK SMALL DOTTED LUNATE SIGMA SYMBOL % % 037D GREEK SMALL REVERSED DOTTED LUNATE SIGMA SYMBOL % \texterotimatiko{} % ; \textquestion \acctonos\textcompwordmark{} % ΄ \"'\textcompwordmark{} % ΅ \'\textAlpha{} % Ά \textanoteleia{} % · \anoteleia \'\textEpsilon{} % Έ \'\textEta{} % Ή \'\textIota{} % Ί \'\textOmicron{} % Ό \'\textUpsilon{} % Ύ \'\textOmega{} % Ώ \'"\textiota{} % ΐ \textAlpha{} % Α \textBeta{} % Β \textGamma{} % Γ \textDelta{} % Δ \textEpsilon{} % Ε \textZeta{} % Ζ \textEta{} % Η \textTheta{} % Θ \textIota{} % Ι \textKappa{} % Κ \textLambda{} % Λ \textMu{} % Μ \textNu{} % Ν \textXi{} % Ξ \textOmicron{} % Ο \textPi{} % Π \textRho{} % Ρ \textSigma{} % Σ \textTau{} % Τ \textUpsilon{} % Υ \textPhi{} % Φ \textChi{} % Χ \textPsi{} % Ψ \textOmega{} % Ω \"\textIota{} % Ϊ \"\textUpsilon{} % Ϋ \'\textalpha{} % ά \'\textepsilon{} % έ \'\texteta{} % ή \'\textiota{} % ί \"'\textupsilon{} % ΰ \textalpha{} % α \textbeta{} % β \textgamma{} % γ \textdelta{} % δ \textepsilon{} % ε \textzeta{} % ζ \texteta{} % η \texttheta{} % θ \textiota{} % ι \textkappa{} % κ \textlambda{} % λ \textmu{} % μ \textmugreek \textnu{} % ν \textxi{} % ξ \textomicron{} % ο \textpi{} % π \textrho{} % ρ \textvarsigma{} % ς \textsigma{} % σ \texttau{} % τ \textupsilon{} % υ \textphi{} % φ \textchi{} % χ \textpsi{} % ψ \textomega{} % ω \"\textiota{} % ϊ \"\textupsilon{} % ϋ \'\textomicron{} % ό \'\textupsilon{} % ύ \'\textomega{} % ώ \textQoppa{} % Ϙ \textqoppa{} % ϙ \textStigma{} % Ϛ \Stigma \textstigma{} % ϛ \stigma \textDigamma{} % Ϝ \Digamma \textdigamma{} % ϝ \ddigamma %03DE GREEK LETTER KOPPA % Ϟ \textKoppagreek \textkoppa{} % ϟ \koppa, \textqoppa [sic!] \textSampi{} % Ϡ \Sampi \textsampi{} % ϡ \sampi \subsection{Greek Extended Unicode block} Characters from the Greek Extended Unicode block are only partially supported, accented characters with sub-iota currently use a combining prosgegrammeni or ypogegrammeni character.
