Have a look at Vincent Zoonekynd's page at
. I'm
in a bit of a hurry now to really go over it again, but I had it
working on my machines here. And since one inputs in unicode, don't be
turned away by the fact that he focusses on Japanese (and usually the
IME for Japanese work OK for Chinese don't they?).
I'll be happy to provide details offlist if needed.

Dear Texnicians,
I am nearing the final stages of producing a handbook for a product which =
is
managed via the product's internal web server. Screenshots are therefore
required. I am looking for a method that has small files and yet does not
have nasty pixelations and is also readable.
The method that I was having some success with was printing the page to =
pdf
and then using pdftex to combine the pictures into the document. I found
that the Mac print from IE lost some of the picture elements such as radio
buttons, and 'text entry' windows and text.
I then got the PC users to create pdfs instead. This created the correct
picture but when incorporated using pdftex into the final document the =
same
elements were missing.
Now I have reprinted the captured pictures to postscript and used =
Distiller
4.05 to recreate the pdfs I have then cropped the spare space off using
Acrobat 4.05. All elements are now there BUT pdftex seems to have found =
the
wrong bounding box and the incorporated picture is offset from its correct
position (I am using context \externalfigure[xxx.pdf]).
It seems as though I should have started by capturing the pictures as
postscript and distilling them. Publication date is Tuesday and I can see
that approaching rather rapidly!
Has anybody found a good procedure for doing this?
TIA

Nigel

The package ucs is installed by default.
To invoke it, just write
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
It works for greek and ancient greek. I don't know for chinese.

Hi,
I'm having a weird problem with a citation. I'm citing the following
bib entry in my document:
@book{Schal92,
Year =3D {1992},
Title =3D {Pattern Recognition: Statistical, Structural and Neural
Approaches},
Address =3D {New York},
Publisher =3D {John Wiley \& Sons},
Author =3D {Schalkoff, Robert J.}}
The problem is that bibtex (apalike style) somehow modifies the title
of the book to "Pattern Recognition: Statistical, **Strucutral** and
Neural Approaches" (see http://www.cin.ufpe.br/~etl/citation.pdf to see
this citation only in pdf format).
What may be happening? Is it a bug?
Softwares I'm using: Mac OS X 10.2.5 + Bibdesk 0.80b + TeXShop 1.28 +
Mr Wierda's teTeX (don't know the version but the changelog at
/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.macosx/ChangeLog.texmf.macosx is from
2002/Dec/15).
Cheers,
Ernesto.

Hello!
Q1
From Kopka-Daly (3d ed.) p. 31-32:
In the book-class with option =B3twoside=B2, \markboth puts, by default it seem=
s
=AD and as I was able to check =AD the name of the chapter on the left pages
(even page numbers) and the name of the section on the right page (in a way
different from what K-D describe, but that=B9s even better).
In the article-class with option =B3twoside=B2, \markboth
(with no additional specifications, which seem only necessary for
\myheadings, if I understand well)
puts, according to my trials, the name of the section on the left pages but
only the page number on the right, although K-D claim that the name of the
subsection should appear next to the page number.
Did I do something wrong?
Q2=20
=B3See the LaTeX manual or LaTeX Companion for explanation.=B2
Where can I find these?
Thanks a lot

Those are probably the book by Leslie Lamport (LaTeX, A document=20
preparation system, ISBN: 0-201-52983-1) and the book by Goossens,=20

Since you already have Kopka and Daly, you probably can find the=20
answers in there, no need for these books.

Bonjour,
Here is the way I installed Unicode and CJK packages, in order to be able t=
o
use both French and Japanese with TeXShop. It should also work for Chinese.
1. Installation of UCS Package
- Download "ucs" package from :
http://www.unruh.de/DniQ/latex/unicode/
- uncompress/untar the file
- move the whole "ucs" directory to an appropriate directory on your local
TeX-tree (I put it in /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/tex/latex/ucs)
2. Installation of CJK Package
- download "cjk" package from :
http://cjk.ffii.org/
- uncompress/untar the "cjk-4.5.1.tar.gz" file
- move the whole directory to an appropriate directory on your local
TeX-tree (I put it in /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/tex/latex/cjk)
3. Installation of Unicode True Type font (Cyberbit)
- download "Cyberbit.ZIP" file from :
ftp://ftp.netscape.com/pub/communicator/extras/fonts/windows/
- uncompress it
- download "Unicode.sfd" file from :
http://delloye.free.fr/Unicode.sfd
- make sure "Cyberbit.ttf" file and "Unicode.sfd" files are in the same
directory
- from the terminal, go to that directory and run
"ttf2tfm cyberbit.ttf -w cyberbit@Unicode@", in order to create ".tfm" an=
d
".enc" files
- move all the ".tfm" files to an appropriate directory on your local
TeX-tree (I put them in
/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/fonts/tfm/bitstrea/cyberbit)
- move all the ".enc" files to an appropriate directory on your local
TeX-tree (I put them in /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/pdftex/enc)
- download "cyberbit.map" file from :
http://delloye.free.fr/cyberbit.map
- move it to an appropriate directory on your local TeX-tree (I put it in
/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/pdftex/config)
- download "c70cyberbit.fd" file from :
http://delloye.free.fr/c70cyberbit.fd
- move it to an appropriate directory on your local TeX-tree (I put it in
/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/tex/latex/misc)
- move the "Cyberbit.ttf" to an appropriate directory on your local TeX-tre=
e
(I put it in /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/fonts/truetype) (check in your
/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf file the "%TrueType outline
fonts" line and the "TTFONTS" value. You have to copy the Cybebrbit.ttf fil=
e
in a directory included in the TTFONTS path.)
4. Declaration of the new font to pdfTeX
- open the "pdftex.cfg" file
(/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/pdftex/config/pdftex.cfg) and add this
line "map +cyberbit.map" (without quotes) at the end of the file.
- run a "sudo mktexlsr"
5. Using the new environment in LaTeX
You just need to include the three following lines in the preamble :
\usepackage[encapsulated]{CJK}
\usepackage{ucs}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
It may also be a good idea to create a new command :
\newcommand{\cntext}[1]{\begin{CJK}{UTF8}{cyberbit}#1\end{CJK}}
Now, when you want to type chinese, you just have to use the command :
\cntext{enter your chinese text here}
Good luck,
Olivier Delloye
