teTeX 3.0 的中文配置
Friday, August 29,
2008.
以前一直用 CJK 宏包处理中文，基本够用，后来改用更符合中文用户使用习惯
的 CCT 宏包。下面这些内容源于以前配置 tetex-2.0 的步骤，改动后用
于tetex-3.0。现在不用了，放在这里留个纪念。
1. 建立 $TEXMFHOME 目录，拷贝 gbkfonts 二进制文件
$ mkdir ~/texmf
$ cp /your/path/gbkfonts ~/texmf/
2. copy truetype 中文字体
$ mkdir ~/texmf/fonts/truetype/chinese/
$ cp /your/path/sim*.ttf ~/texmf/fonts/truetype/chinese/
常用的有宋体、黑体、楷体。
3. 生成字体
$ cd ~/temxf/
$ ./gbkfonts ~/texmf/fonts/truetype/chinese/simsun.ttf song
$ ./gbkfonts ~/texmf/fonts/truetype/chinese/simhei.ttf hei
$ ./gbkfonts ~/texmf/fonts/truetype/chinese/simkai.ttf kai
4. 调整目录
按 标准 TeX 目录结构（TDS）调整生成的文件：
$ mkdir -p ~/texmf/fonts/{map/{dvipdfm,dvips,pdftex,ttf2pk},\
> enc/{dvips/chinese,pdftex/chinese}}
$ mv ~/texmf/dvips/cjk.map ~/temxf/fonts/map/dvips/
$ mv ~/texmf/pdftex/config/*.map ~/texmf/fonts/map/pdftex/
$ mv ~/texmf/dvipdfm/config/*.map ~/texmf/fonts/map/dvipdfm/
$ mv ~/texmf/ttf2pk/ttfonts.map ~/texmf/fonts/map/ttf2pk/
$ mv ~/texmf/dvips/chinese/* ~/texmf/fonts/enc/dvips/chinese/
$ mv ~/texmf/pdftex/enc/* ~/texmf/fonts/enc/pdftex/chinese/
5. dvips 的必要配置
$ mkdir ~/texmf/dvips/config/
$ cp /usr/share/texmf-tetex/dvips/config.ps ~/texmf/dvips/config/
$ cat "p +cjk.map" >> ~/texmf/dvips/config/config.ps
6. 刷新 TeX 文件名数据库
$ texhash

`listings' conflicts with `CJK'
Friday, August 29,
2008.
`listings'
(v1.3) conflicts with `CJK' (v4.7.0) in teTeX 3.0.
The solution is to add
\lstset{extendchars=false}
to the preamble of your LaTeX source file.

How to install font symbols' packages (like ifsym) in teTeX?
Friday, August 29,
2008.
It's so easy to generate and set up a new .sty file.
But how can we install a font/symbol package like ifsym ?
Is this a general method ?
- create a directory $TEXMF/fonts/sources/public/ifsym
- copy all the *.mf *.gen to this directory
- create a directory $TEXMF/tex/latex/ifsym
- copy all the *sty *.fd to this directory
- Add the following lines to the file:
$TEXMF/fontname/special.map
ifsym public ifsym
ifgeo public ifsym
ifwea public ifsym
ifclk public ifsym
- update the TeX file database by running texhash or whatever your Tex
imprementation provides.
- create a document:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[geometry]{ifsym}
\begin{document}
\Circle
\SquareShadowA
\end{document}
- Run LaTeX, if everything is fine, you should see a dvi that has a big
circle and a big square shaded with a simple line at bottom and right of the
square.

Generate letter size PostScript from DVI
Friday, August 29,
2008.
After using latex to get an dvi file, you should run these
commands:
dvips -Ppdf -G0 myfile.dvi
ps2pdf myfile.ps
If the generated pdf file has very small top margin, it means
dvips generated A4 size but you expected letter size. Thus you
should use dvips like this:
dvips -t letterSize -Ppdf -G0 myfile

epstopdf 90 rotate: a ghostscript bug
Friday, August 29,
2008.
The epstopdf command coming from your TeX distrubution can convert eps to pdf.
However, due to a bug in GhostScript, the image is rotated by 90 degrees
sometimes. Thus you should use this command to do the conversion. Of course
you want to replace my.eps and my.pdf with the file
name of your images.
egrep -v "^%%Orientation:" my.eps | epstopdf --filter --outfile=my.pdf
