I just converted and installed the Lucida Bright fonts (expert, math,
everything) that I used to use with Textures (if anyone has trouble, I can
now provide excruciating detail on how to do it). It all works wonderfully,
but I only had to use:
\usepackage[expert]{lucidabr}
to get what I wanted. I include the "expert" option to get bold math fonts.
[1] Do I need to specify the encoding?
[2] What does the "bm" package do that I can't get with "amsmath"?
In addition, I noticed that when I use:
\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage[expert]{lucidabr}
\usepackage{amsmath}
I get different versions of the AMS symbols when compared to using:
\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage[expert]{lucidabr}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{amssymb}
It appears that in the former, I am getting the Lucida versions and in the
latter the Computer Modern/AMS versions. Is this the proper behavior?
Thank you,

I don't know the answer to these I have just been doing this
for a few years !
I tried to do instead
\usepackage[expert]{lucidabr}
\usepackage{amsthm, amsmath}
and it seemed to work just as well so I will stick with it.

I am not sure if it is proper but I get the same behavious as you. In the
second of those two options the CM AMS fonts come back.
However it I do
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage[expert]{lucidabr}
\usepackage{amsthm, amsmath}
I don't get the ams fonts. I guess the last thing to load wins :-)
Thanks - Michael

I also suggest you to delete the LS's and reinstall TS, what will take
half a second.
Maybe you can change the name to say "TeXShop 1.17" just in case Mac OS
X caches info to force an update. Then associate the .tex files to this
new named app as default app. If it works you can revert to the standard
name
well, if it does no work, save your work, format your disk, reinstall
mac os x, reinstall your work...
and don't forget to scream...
Launch services are strange, i had similar problems with some apple

[1] I don't think the encoding needs to be specified, this means you
will use OT1 metrics like:
/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/fonts/tfm/bh/lubright/hlhr7t.tfm
However if you're concerned, like me, by using features of 8-bit fonts
(like hyphenation of words with accented characters, as allowed by the
babel package), then yes, you need to specify the encoding, either as:
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[expert]{lucidabr}
which means you will use T1 metrics like:
/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/fonts/tfm/bh/lubright/hlhr8t.tfm
or as:
\usepackage[LY1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[expert]{lucidabr}
which means you will use LY1 metrics like:
/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/fonts/tfm/yandy/lubright/lbr.tfm
I tend to favour the third solution, since this means using the original
metrics from the designers of the fonts themselves, and in my experience
T1 metrics for PostScript fonts tend to produce overcrowded lines with
too many hyphenations (at least, more than with LY1 metrics). In French
we tend to get more hyphenations than in English, I think.
[2] I didn't compare the relative performances of \bm from the bm
package and \boldsymbol from the amsmath package, but every source I saw
which mentions them (including compuscript instructions from journal
editors) says more or less that \boldsymbol is deprecated and \bm its
"official" replacement. One reason I think is that the bm package is now
part of official LaTeX.

The lucidabr package defines the control sequences for AMS symbols to
use replacement characters from the Lucida Math fonts, while the amssymb
package defines these sequences to use the original characters from the
AMS Math fonts, so yes I guess that the last loaded package has
precedence over the first.
I have used Lucida fonts for about a year now with TeXShop, and it's
really cool!

Hi -
I don't know much about fonts and such, and would like to get some
advice: am I doing an ok thing, or something terribly wrong (or is there
a better alternative that can be implemented easily?).
I want to prepare slides (for display in PDF), I use the seminar class :
\documentclass[slidesonly]{seminar}
I want to get sans-serif fonts :
\renewcommand{\familydefault}{cmss}
(This is probably straight out of Goosen's book)
And, I found that the equations in my slides were not projecting very
well, so I wanted to get bold face math fonts (without having to say bf
in every equation) :
\DeclareSymbolFont{operators}{OT1}{cmr}{b}{n}
\DeclareSymbolFont{letters}{OML}{cmm}{b}{n}
\DeclareSymbolFont{symbols}{OMS}{cmsy}{b}{n}
\DeclareSymbolFont{largesymbols}{OMX}{cmex}{b}{n}
(I found some code somewhere on the Web, and adapted it to get what I
want. The second line, I think, takes the cmm fonts and makes them bold
face.)
I'm quite happy with the results now. But do others have any advice on
this? Is there a good reference to understand the above?

Bruno is right. Once you have this modified language.dat installed in your

languages automatically in your TeX.

Yes, but with one problem (I got bitten by it, so I know). nehyph2.tex was
removed from the distribution recently and the hyphenation patterns couldn't be
created because nehyph2.tex wasn't found. The newly created language.dat
contained the correct reference, but my local copy (which wasn't touched by the
installer) was outdated.
How do you solve something like this in a local config? (apart from checking
every time that you install that everything went as planned and if not:
figuring out what to do...)
I understand that Gerben is working on a solution (an easier to parse format
for language.dat and presumably a user-interface upon installing, but I may get
ahead of things here...)

Subject: Different TeX platforms
From: "Andy Doller" <andy at sabine.acs.psu.edu>
Date: Thu, 14 Mar 2002 10:53:42 -0500 (EST)
As a recent convert to the world of Mac by the powers of OSX, I have
just experienced what Mac users have experienced for a long time - a
disparity between windows and mac software features/versions. Except,
to my surprise, the disparity was in reverse.
When typing 'pdftex' at a windows prompt with the latest version of
MiKTeX(2.1) installed, I see that the pdftex is version 1.00a-200010813;
an older version than what is included in the TeXLive-teTeX from the
TeXShop site (1.00b-pretest-20020211). A few questions result: What
concerns should I have when collaborating with people between these two
versions? Are the revisions just to keep instep with the development
of OSX pdf/tex applications? What other TeX-Live-teTeX packages need to
be updated to use this later version on the windows machine? How would
one do that? An aside, is this really platform independence when
versions are platform dependent?
Thanks for your comments,

No. pfm is a Microsoft invention. A Type 1 font should come with a .afm
file which contains metric information. Of course for TeX you need a .tfm
file, you don't need the .afm file except to make the .tfm file. For many
fonts the .tfm files can be found on CTAN, however.

In my case, the next release will forcefully remove language.dat from
texmf.local, but it wil leave ~/Library/texmf alone.
In general: since language.dat and the cnf files like fmtutil.cnf
infliuence the availability of formats in texmf.local it is a very bad
idea to put language.dat and .cnf files in ~/Library/texmf. Formats and
stuff are system wide and their creation should not differ depending on
which user runs the configuration commands.
The place to put your modified stuff (and also the place where texconfig
puts it) is texmf.local. I never change anything in that subtree, unless
it is really necessary to keep stuff working (nehyph2.tex is a good
example).
~/Library/texmf is a good place for your personal stuff, but not for the
stuff that influences formats which are system-wide.

A bit, yes. But there will be a nice solution and I hope this month. And
it will use texmf.local, and not be ~/Library/texmf-aware.

No, no, no. If you're concerned 'bout staying up-to-date with (pdf)TeX

Upon reading as much as I could of the PDFtex archives, I have found
much much confusion about the pre-test releases of pdftex of (version
1.00a and 1.00b) since August 2001 across the various platforms. I
would like to thank the folks that make the .dmg files of TeXShop and
TeTeX for keeping this confusion from the rest of us, continually
providing a great product especially since it is 'bleeding edge,' all
with the drag and drop simplicity of OSX.
Only my last question seem to apply here now. With all of these
different versions of pdftex floating around, how can one claim device
independence, when code my code may or may not work on other default
installations. Also, it is alot of work to keep software at the
bleeding-edge level and you risk discovering bugs when you need a
publication out the door. I see that the success/ease of use/etc. of
pdftex on OSX could cause its own schism between itself in the rest of
the tex'ing community. I am having a difficult time convincing others
(especially on windows machines) to switch to pdftex due its lack of
progress that is available to them by default? I just abandoned Texsis
because of the small community and waining support and from my
experience it is best to have a local community that all run the same
environment. Can someone convince me that I am not jumping from the
frying pan into the fire before I get to deep into writing my thesis?
Thanks,
