No changes to the fonts, only the LaTeX support: - use family GentiumBookPlus as additional weights for gentium.sty, and - use family GentiumPlus as additional weights for gentiumbook.sty (Pavel). 2022-05-19 - numerous changes for the Gentium Plus 6.101 release (= gentium-tug 1.101).

(Pavel/Karl) 2022-05-09 - adapt Ruby scripts that create the TeX support files for the new fonts. The scripts do not work with the current version of Ruby, but with the very old version 1.8.7).

(Pavel) 2022-04-26 - add several wordlists to see in FontForge how the converted fonts behave. (Pavel) 2022-04-07 - add some kerning pairs for Cyrillic letters. (Pavel) 2022-03-29 - improve scripts that test the converted Type 1 fonts. (Pavel) 2022-03-22 - fix scripts for small caps; Old fonts used x.SC for small caps, new fonts use x.sc.

(Ralf) - we'll call this version 1.1.1, since the glyphs did not change; corresponding documentation and source updated (Karl) 2015-04-06 - update dvips/*.enc to use new names *.sc instead of *.SC. (Pavel/Karl) 2015-01-31 - update to GentiumPlus 5.000 TrueType fonts from SIL. (Karl) - remake Type 1 fonts. (Pavel) - corresponding small updates to documentation and support files. (All) 2013-05-17 - Some changes in the test files. (Pavel) 2013-04-30 - More doc and distribution tweaks, resent to Victor. (Karl) 2013-04-27 - At the request of Victor Gaultney, changed the advance width of the letters dcaron and lcaron back to the original value. Replaced with some extra kerning pairs for the more common combinations. (Pavel) 2013-03-20 - Added license statement to more files, tweak docs. (Karl) 2013-03-14 - Updated Gentium Plus fonts. (Pavel) 2013-03-10 - Changed 'gentium' into 'gentium-tug' by request of SIL. (Mojca) 2013-02-27 - Added a script to create CTAN-friendly directory structure. (Mojca) 2012-04-11 - Added test files and samples for the differences between the original TrueType and converted Type 1 fonts. (Pavel) 2012-04-07 - Corrected letters Tcedilla and Tcommaaccent in the extra kerning pairs added to the Type 1 fonts. (Pavel) - Test file for LGR shows also the italic style.

(Pavel) 2012-03-20 - The scripts for the conversion of the fonts to Type1 can add kerning pairs for accented Latin letters now. The original TTF fonts have no such kerning pairs. More such kerning pairs should be added. (Pavel) 2012-03-14 - Added several kerning pairs for small caps in the Type 1 version of GentiumPlus (original TTFs have no kerning pairs for small caps). They were added for these combinations: small cap + small cap (currently without accents), capital letter + small cap and some punctuation symbols preceeded or followed by small cap letter. All these kerning pairs are created automatically and they are derived from the respective kerning pairs for capital letters. (Pavel) 2012-03-07 - The Type 1 fonts have "TeX Users Group" as creator now. (Pavel) - Added license header to some files. (Pavel) 2012-02-27 - Added FamilyBlues and FamilyOtherBlues to Type 1 fonts. The fonts can not be one family (t1lint complained), therefore two fonts from GentiumPlus are one family and two fonts from GentiumBasic are other family. (Pavel) - ForceBold set explicitly (true or false) for Type 1 fonts. (Pavel) - Added new targets "test" and "kerns" for the makefile building Type 1 fonts. (Pavel) - Small clean-up of the Type 1 build scripts. (Pavel) 2012-02-14 - Update of the PDF/LaTeX documentation. (Pavel) 2012-02-10 - Added build scripts for Type 1 fonts to the subdirectory "type1" in "source". The fonts are not reencoded to Adobe Standard Encoding (which created many slots containing ".notdef"). (Pavel) 2012-02-07 - Update of the PDF/LaTeX documentation. (Pavel) 2012-02-06 - The build scripts for the conversion of the fonts to Type 1 remove the lookups "mark" and "mkmk" after opening the TrueType font. This eliminates really huge amount of error messages for GentiumPlus. The scripts print messages about the current operation now. (Pavel) 2012-02-05 - Remove old scripts and refactor ruby sources. (Mojca) - Different formatting in map files, no functional changes; map files for ot1, ts1, lgr, t2b, t2c, x2 may be removed in future (Mojca) - Fix dotlessj (uni0237) in some encodings; fix scommaaccent & some greek letters in qx encoding.

(Mojca) 2012-01-20 - Simplified the file gentium.sty quite a lot, uses xkeyval now. 2012-01-19 - Added the possibility for afm2pl to use a lig file if present. (Pavel) - Added lig files for AGR, LGR, T2A, T2B, T2C and X2. (Pavel) - The fonts from the previous update copied to the main package. (Pavel) - Generated support for LGR. (Pavel) - Added simple test files for LGR and Czech. (Pavel) - Workaround for 'dcroat' and 'Idotaccent' for EC and T5 encodings. (Mojca) 2012-01-16 - Created first serious version of Type 1 fonts based on the script by Clea F. Rees. Added kerning pairs for the combinations accent + capital Greek letter. The letters dcaron and lcaron made narrower than it the original fonts (for better results in Czech and Slovak). The package still uses the old version of the fonts. (Pavel) - Added LGR encoding (no support files generated). (Pavel) 2012-01-13 - Add gentium.sty for LaTeX and sample *.fd files (Pavel) - Write a script to generate ${enc}gentium.fd (Mojca) - Update ConTeXt support files to new names.
