:Licence: This work may be distributed and/or modified under the
conditions of the `LaTeX Project Public License`_, either
version 1.3 of this license or any later version.
:Abstract: This package provides input encoding definition
files for Greek for use with inputenc_.
News
====
:May 2013: * new maintainer.
* Unicode support with the standard "utf8" option.
Files
=====
`<lgrenc.dfu>`_
Greek input encoding file for UTF-8 comprising Greek letters and other
symbols present in the LGR encoding.
This file requires ``lgrenc.def`` version 0.8.2 or newer from the
greek-fontenc_ package.
The literate source was converted with PyLit_ to reStructuredText_ and
with Docutils_ to `<lgrenc.dfu.html>`_.
`<iso-8859-7.def>`_
Greek input encoding file for `ISO 8859-7`_ by Apostolos Syropoulos.
[#transliteration]_
`<macgreek.def>`_
Greek input encoding file for Macintosh (ELOT 823) by Dimitrios Filippou.
[#transliteration]_
Test examples and output:
:utf-8: `<test-utf8.tex>`_, `<test-utf8.pdf>`_ (comprehensive example)
:iso 8859-7: `<test-iso-8859-7.tex>`_, `<test-iso-8859-7.pdf>`_ (basic test)
.. [#transliteration] Currently, these files translate to a Latin
transcription particular to the LGR font encoding. Drawbacks include:
Latin characters in PDF strings (hyperref_ bookmarks and TOC sidebar, cf.
greekhyperref.pdf__), no kerning between accented characters.

Installation
============
If possible, get this package from your distribution using its installation
manager.
Otherwise, make sure LaTeX can find the files ending in ``.def``:
* Download and unpack `greek-inputenc.zip` or just download the required
file(s).
* Copy, move, or link the files to a suitable place in the `TeX Directory
Structure` (TDS_) and run ``texhash``, or place them in the current working
directory (e.g. for testing).
Usage
=====
Pass the encoding name as option to inputenc_.
The "utf8" option only defines characters that are accessible in declared
font encodings. In order to load the Greek definitions in ``lgrenc.dfu``,
specify the LGR font encoding with fontenc_ or the "greek" option for
babel_, e.g. ::
\usepackage[LGR,T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
or ::
\usepackage[greek,english]{babel}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
See `test-utf8.tex`_ for an example.
