With this experimental patch also nested \hboxes at the left and right margin are recursively searched for items with \lpcode or \rpcode, and the outmost containing boxes are protruded correspondingly. This seems to be practical e. g. if an elevated \footnote{foo} (LaTeX) index happens to be at the right margin; in this case the footnote index normally is placed too far inward the line. This disturbance was detected by Peter Muthesius in an de.comp.text.tex news thread "pdfcprot und Ziffern am rechten Rand" started Sat Jan 08 14:05:23 CET 2005. Rough experimental patch, rudimentarily tested with left and right protrusion, see test file xx.tex with output xx.pdf. Just for discussion. No warranty. Have fun! Regards, Hartmut ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Hartmut Henkel (hhenkel) Date: 2005-01-18 22:19 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=929 Character protrusion patch news: * The protrusion character can now be inside deeply nested \hbox{}, with further (also nested) skipable \hbox{} stuff in the way. The nested list will be recursively searched until a non-skipable item (protrusion character, other character, or list end) is found. * Try to solve left protrusion at paragraph start with \parindent=0pt,by selectively skipping over TeX's empty \hbox{} there. * Protrusion character search by 2 new functions find_protchar_left() and find_protchar_right(), and simple stack.

I'm guilty for this change (anywhere else this blank is missing, but it was definitively allowed as i see now -- an undocumented feature). What is the origin of file texnansiOSFSC-adobe-cronospro.map? Is it from somewhere distributed or written by yourself? Regards, Hartmut

ttf support
by The Thanh Han 17 Jan '05

Hi all, I am working on ttf support: 1) will make the subset tag work in the same way as t1; 2) support refering glyphs by their unicode index in map files. In case one has some further ideas for improvements for fixes, please let me know. Regards, Thanh

[ pdftex-Feature Requests-254 ] fontexpansion, dvi output

Feature Requests item #254, was opened at 2004-12-22 21:06 You can respond by visiting: http://sarovar.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=496&aid=254&group_id=106 Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Nobody (None) Assigned to: Nobody (None) Summary: fontexpansion, dvi output Initial Comment: Hello developers, I'd like to use the autoexpand feature with dvips. Are there any plans to make pdftex write the autoexpanded tfm files to the current directory, perhaps even generating a map file? Cheers, Michael ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: The Thanh Han (hanthethanh) Date: 2005-01-14 02:19 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=710 It is likely that this will never be implemented. The better way to do that is to change the script \<TEX> (\<PDFTEX>) calls to create missing \<TFM> during run-time (on \<WEB2C>-based systems this is called |mktextfm|) to create all the required stuff on demand.
