Fonts and macros to typeset ancient Greek
Ibycus is a Greek typeface, based on Silvio Levy's realisation of a classic Didot cut of Greek type from around 1800. The fonts are available both as Metafont source and in Adobe Type 1 format. This distribution of ibycus is accompanied by a set of macro packages to use it with Plain TeX or LaTeX, but for use with Babel, see the ibycus-babel package.
The TeX Live software distribution offers a complete TeX system for a variety of Unix, Macintosh, Windows and other platforms. It encompasses programs for editing, typesetting, previewing and printing of TeX documents in many different languages, and a large collection of TeX macros and font libraries. The distribution includes extensive general documentation about TeX, as well as the documentation for the included software packages.
The package allows you to use the Ibycus 4 font for ancient Greek with Babel. It uses a Perl script to generate hyphenation patterns for Ibycus from those for the ordinary Babel encoding, cbgreek. It sets up ibycus as a pseudo-language you can specify in the normal Babel manner. For proper hyphenation of Greek quoted in mid-paragraph, you should use it with elatex (all current distributions of LaTeX are built with e-TeX, so the constraint should not be onerous).
Sans-serif Greek fonts to match the URW Bookman set (which are distributed with Kerkis). The Kerkis font set has some support for mathematics as well as other glyphs missing from the base URW Bookman fonts. Macros are provided to use the fonts in OT1, T1 (only NG/ng glyphs missing) and LGR encodings, as well as in mathematics; small caps and old-style number glyphs are also available. The philosophy, and the design process, of the Kerkis fonts is discussed in a paper in TUGboat 23(3/4), 2002.
A Greek font, from one such by Baskerville
The font is a digital implementation of Baskerville's classic Greek font, provided by the Greek Font Society. The font covers Greek only, and LaTeX support provides for the use of LGR encoding.
Hyphenation patterns for Ancient Greek in LGR and UTF-8 encodings, including support for (obsolete) Ibycus font encoding. Patterns in UTF-8 use two code positions for each of the vowels with acute accent (a.k.a tonos, oxia), e.g., U+03AE, U+1F75 for eta.
Hyphenation patterns for Modern Greek in monotonic and polytonic spelling in LGR and UTF-8 encodings. Patterns in UTF- 8 use two code positions for each of the vowels with acute accent (a.k.a tonos, oxia), e.g., U+03AC, U+1F71 for alpha.
Facilitates writing/editing of multiaccented greek
The greektonoi mapping extends the betababel package or the babel polutonikogreek option to provide a simple way to insert ancient Greek texts with diacritical characters into your document using a similar method to the commonly used Beta Code transliteration, but with much more freedom. It is designed especially for the XeTeX engine and it could also be used for fast and easy modification of monotonic greek texts to polytonic. The output text is natively encoded in Unicode, so it can be reused in any possible way. The greektonoi package provides, in addition to inserting greek accents and breathings, many other symbols used in greek numbers and arithmetic or in the greek archaic period. It could be used with greektonoi mapping or indepedently.
These files are regarded as basic for any TeX system, covering plain TeX macros, Computer Modern fonts, and configuration for common drivers; no LaTeX.
Provides ancient Greek day and month names, dates, etc
The package provides easy access to ancient Greek names of days and months of various regions of Greece. In case the historical information about a region is not complete, we use the Athenian name of the month. Moreover commands and options are provided, in order to completely switch to the "ancient way", commands such as \today.
Insert ancient greek text coded in Beta Code
The betababel package extends the babel polutonikogreek option to provide a simple way to insert ancient Greek texts with diacritical characters into your document using the commonly used Beta Code transliteration. You can directly insert Beta Code texts -- as they can be found at the Perseus project, for example -- without modification.
A family of 7-bit fonts with a code table designed for setting modern polytonic Greek. The fonts are provided as Metafont source; macros to produce a Greek variant of Plain TeX (including a hyphenation table adapted to the fonts' code table) are provided.
LICR macros and encoding definition files for Greek
The package provides Greek LICR macro definitions and encoding definition files for Greek text font encodings for use with fontenc.
LaTeX macros for using Silvio Levy's Greek fonts
A conversion of Silvio Levy's Plain TeX macros for use with LaTeX.
Makeindex is resolutely stuck with Latin-based alphabets, so will not deal with Greek indexes, unaided. This package provides a Perl script that will transmute the index of a Greek document in such a way that makeindex will sort the entries according to the rules of the Greek alphabet.
LaTeX font description files for the CB Greek fonts
The package provides font description files for all the many shapes available from the cbfonts collection. The files provide the means whereby the NFSS knows which fonts a LaTeX user is requesting.
XeLaTeX package for typesetting Greek language documents (beta release)
This package has been designed so to allow people to typeset Greek language documents using XeLaTeX. And it is released in the hope that people will use it and spot errors, bugs, features so to improve it. Practically, it provides all the capabilities of the greek option of the babel package. The package can be invoked with any of the following options: monotonic (for typesetting modern monotonic Greek), polytonic (for typesetting modern polytonic Greek), and ancient (for typesetting ancient texts). The default option is monotonic. The command \setlanguage{<lang>} to activate the hyphenation patterns of the language <lang> This, however, can be done only if the format file has not been built with the babel mechanism.
This bundle presents the whole of Beccari's original Greek font set, which use the 'Lispiakos' font shape derived from the shape of the fonts used in printers' shops in Lispia. The fonts are available both as Metafont source and in Adobe Type 1 format, and at the same wide set of design sizes as are such font sets as the EC fonts.
Philological typesetting of classical Greek
An extension to babel greek option for typesetting classical Greek with a philological approach. The package works with the author's greek fonts using the 'Lispiakos' font shape derived from that of the fonts used in printers' shops in Lispia. The package name honours the publisher B.G. Teubner Verlaggesellschaft whose Greek text publications are of high quality.
These fonts are derivatives of Kunth's CM fonts. Macros for use with Plain TeX are included in the package; for use with LaTeX, see lgreek (with English documentation) or levy (with German documentation).
Greek environment to be used with pdflatex only
This simple package defines a greek environment to be used with pdfLaTeX only, that accepts an optional Greek font family name to type its contents with. A similar \greektxt command does a similar action for shorter texts.
The bundle provides UTF-8, Macintosh Greek encoding and ISO 8859-7 definition files for use with inputenc.
Babel support for documents written in Greek
The file provides modes for monotonic (single-diacritic) and polytonic (multiple-diacritic) modes of writing. Provision is made for Greek function names in mathematics, and for classical- era symbols.
Porson is an elegant Greek font, originally cut at the turn of the 19th Century in England. The present version has been provided by the Greek Font Society. The font supports the Greek alphabet only. LaTeX support is provided, using the LGR encoding.
