  • Minimal Steps to Typeset Vietnamese
    Minimal steps to typeset Vietnamese Hàn Thế Thành 14th May 2013 This document tries to answer the question that has been often asked: How can I typeset just a few Vietnamese words in my document, which is in English (or French/German/...)? The answer depends very much on a particular scenario, however I assume that you are in a hurry, you don’t want to bother with issues like how to display and write Vietnamese in your TEX editor. You only have a few Vietnamese words in your LATEX file and you would like to see them properly displayed in your final PDF or PS file. 1. As the very first requirement, you must have some minimal LATEX support for Vietnamese: • Check whether you have VnTEX installed. VnTEX is included in teTEX, MikTEX and TEXLive. • If the above is not the case, try to download and install VnTEX by following the instructions at http://vntex.sf.net/download/vntex. • If you can’t install VnTEX, you must have at least Latin Modern fonts installed. Then download http://vntex.sf.net/download/vntex-support/t5enc.def and put it to the directory where your LATEX file is. • If all the above fails, try to get help from someone else to solve at least one of those issues. 2. Make sure you have package fontenc loaded with T5 encoding. For example, if your document contains European languague(s) only, then you should have a line saying \usepackage[T1,T5]{fontenc} in your preamble. 3. An example how to input Vietnamese words may look like this: {\fontencoding{T5}\selectfont Ti\'\ecircumflex{}ng Vi\d\ecircumflex{}t} which gives the output as Ti¸ng Vi»t.

It arose from discussion within your committee of what we might reasonably do which helps our members, but which isn’t already done elsewhere. We hope it will prove useful to you. We would welcome comments on the utility or otherwise of the article, and on ways it could be improved; letters to the editor are always welcome. Future uses of this edition could include inserting it into a ‘new members pack’, publishing updated questions, and possibly republishing the whole thing. This edition of Baskerville was processed using a testing copy of the December 1994 release of LATEX2ε, but none of the answers to questions assume that that version is available (it’s scheduled for public release in the middle of December).

    HISTORY OF DESKTOP PUBLISHING: BUILDING THE INDUSTRY THEME ARTICLE: HISTORY OF DESKTOP PUBLISHING: BUILDING THE INDUSTRY TEX: A Branch in Desktop Publishing Evolution, Part 2 Donald Knuth began the development of TEX in 1977 and had an initial version running in 1978, with the Barbara Beeton American Mathematical Society aim of typesetting mathematical documents with the Karl Berry highest quality, and with archival reproducibility far TEX Users Group into the future. Its usage spread, and today the TEX David Walden system remains in use by a vibrant user community. However, the world of TEX has always been somewhat out of sync with the commercial desktop publishing systems that began to come out in the mid-1980s and are now ubiquitous in the worlds of publishing and printing. Part 1 of this history (Annals vol. 40, no. 3) was about the creation of TEX at Stanford and how it began to spread. This part is about (a) the expansion of TEX-based and TEX-related technology, and development of a worldwide community of TEX users and developers following the lead of Knuth’s original collaboration model, and (b) the impact TEX has had on the broader world. In Part 1 we were primarily talking about TEX as developed by Knuth. In Part 2 we sometimes speak of (LA)TEX, meaning TEX or LATEX but mostly LATEX. We also often say TEX when we mean TEX and everything that has been built on top of and around TEX; we hope the distinction between the TEX program itself and these extended meanings is clear from the context.
