Debian/TeX Live 2017.20171031-1

Halloween is here, time to upload a new set of scary packages of TeX Live. About a month has passed, so there is the usual big stream up updates. There was actually an intermediate release to get out some urgent fixes, but I never reported the news here. So here are the accumulated changes and updates.

My favorite this time is wallcalendar, a great class to design all kind of calendars, it looks really well done. I immediately will start putting one together.

On the font side there is the new addition coelacanth. To quote from the README: “Coelacanth is inspired by the classic Centaur type design of Bruce Rogers, described by some as the most beautiful typeface ever designed. It aims to be a professional quality type family for general book typesetting.” And indeed it is beautiful!

Other noteworthy addition is the Spark font that allows creating sparklines in the running text with LaTeX.

Enjoy.
