CTAN Update: thailatex
Date: November 4, 2011 10:16:21 PM CET
On Thu, 3 Nov 2011 Theppitak Karoonboonyanan submitted an update to the
thailatex
package.
Summary description: Typeset Thai texts with standard LaTeX classes
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
Fonts previously provided in thailatex are now split into a separate package "fonts-tlwg" (upstream project name: thaifonts-scalable). If your old Thai LaTeX documents do not use 'thswitch' package, font families will not be switched with \sffamily or \ttfamily commands. Only the default one will be used throughout the document. To allow font switching, it is now recommended to \usepackage{fonts-tlwg}. It is currently equivalent to \usepackage{thswitch}, but the latter is deprecated soon, to allow alternative Thai font packages to come.
This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/language/thai/thailatex . More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/thailatex (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org . Please join a users group; see http://www.tug.org/usergroups.html .
Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Rainer Schöpf

ThaiLaTeX – Typeset Thai texts with standard LaTeX classes
ThaiLaTeX enables typesetting Thai with standard LaTeX document classes.
However, it has been obsolete ever since its materials were included in their corresponding upstream sources: the Babel language definition has been included in the babel-thai package, the hyphenation patterns have been included in hyph-utf8.
