STIX fonts 2.0 has been released http://www.stixfonts.org I think this would be reat to have in openSUSE for Libre Office. There are five OpenType fonts, four for the regular alphabet, and one for math (laid out according to the Unicode extensions for mathematical symbols). Problem with using them for TeX is that they have yet to be split into several Type 1 fonts. as I don't think there is a Unicode/OpenType aware TeX just yet. What do you all think?

Omega.
I forgot about Omega. I also talked to one of my former colleagues at the American Mathematical Society and he says that the STIX fonts work out of the box with XeTeX and LuaTeX. He also said breaking them down into fonts that are 8 bit encoded is in the works. So, these might be incorporated into TeX Live 17 in which case they'll make it to openSUSE. But that means they'll be buried deep within the TeX font search path and one would have to go through some extra steps to use them with Libre Office Tom -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
