Four new packages have been installed at tug.ctan.org and should make their way to mirrors in the next few days. The four separate descriptions are below. Thanks for the contribution, Jim Hefferon ftpmaint at tug.ctan.org == Package: cipa ======================================================= The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: Concrete TIPA Name: Berthold Crysmann Location on CTAN: fonts/tipa/contrib/cipa Summary description: Concrete parameters for TIPA License type: gpl Announcement text: - - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package provides mf parameter files to generate a Concrete version of the tipa IPA fonts, together with LaTeX .fd for the new font family, and type1 outlines generated from the .mf source via TeXtrace. The parameters are taken from Knuth's original Concrete fonts and combined with a few values specific to the TIPA fonts. You need the tipa sources (CTAN:fonts/tipa) to generate .pk files. - - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- == Package: pipa ======================================================= Name of contribution: Palatino TIPA Name: Berthold Crysmann Location on CTAN: fonts/tipa/contrib/pipa/ Summary description: Palatino-compatible parameters for TIPA License type: gpl Announcement text:
The package provides mf parameter files to generate a version of the tipa IPA fonts that should combine a bit better with Palatino-type fonts. Included are tfm's and a LaTeX .fd for the new font family, and type1 outlines generated from the .mf source via TeXtrace. You need the tipa sources (CTAN:fonts/tipa) to generate .pk files.
== Package: bipa ======================================================= Name of contribution: CM Bright TIPA Name: Berthold Crysmann Location on CTAN: fonts/tipa/contrib/biba Summary description: CM Bright parameters for TIPA License type: gpl Announcement text:
The package provides mf parameter files to generate a CM Bright version of the tipa IPA fonts, together with tfm's and a LaTeX .fd for the new font family, and type1 outlines generated from the .mf source via TeXtrace. The parameters are taken from Walter Schmidt's original CM Bright fonts and combined with a few values specific to the TIPA fonts. You need the tipa sources (CTAN:fonts/tipa) to generate .pk files.
== Package: tipa ======================================================= Name of contribution: TIPA type1 fonts Name: Berthold Crysmann Location on CTAN: fonts/tipa/contrib/tipa Summary description: Type1 version of TIPA fonts License type: gpl Announcement text:

tipa – Fonts and macros for IPA phonetics characters

These fonts are considered the ‘ultimate answer’ to IPA typesetting. The encoding of these 8-bit fonts has been registered as standard encoding T3, and the set of addendum symbols as encoding TS3. ‘Times-like’ Adobe Type 1 versions are provided for both the T3 and the TS3 fonts.
