Toolbars, Icons - new face of BaKoMa TeX.

• All icons are redesigned for 24x24 size, which is more suitable than 16x16 icons for modern displays.
• Icon design is based on 256 colors XP style, which provides nice looking icons.
• Toolbars are automatically sized and wrapped into required number of rows. This feature may be disabled in toolbar customization dialog.
• [?] button in Text/Math Tool Bar open proper section of documentation.
• Improved default scaling of Symbol Panels (TeXWord) nad Symbol Bars (Centaur).

Common Settings - new program manages common configuration.

• avoid 'dictfull' for local dictionaries (incl. save level == 0), it has effect on DVIPS prolog files in common directories (work around too small dictionary in 'solides.pro' and other buggy prologs).
• automatical closing (adding 'end') dictionaries loading prologs with unclosed dictionaries (work around bug in 'solides.pro').

Updated Modules

• quicksetup.exe or
  bkmtex.exe + texword.bkz
• lmodern.bkz - just updated font version.

Support Patches

Version 8.17 (25-Dec-2007)

• MetaPost is updated to version 1.002.
  Solved problems: (a) Fixed Image Cache for importing MP figures; (b) Fixed preparing fonts for MP graphics (use TeX font names); (c) Space in directory name ('Program Files').
• Animate package compatibility.
  We consider only WYSIWYG editing documents powered by Animate package. To generate PDF output with animation DVIPS + Distiller should be used.
• MetaFont is updated to version 2.7182.
• Fixed bug in PKDecode filter - displaying some PK fonts in DVIEW and TeXWord.
• www.BaKoMa-TeX.com design is updated to provide more robust communication methods.

Version 8.15 (7-Nov-2007)

• Compatibility with AcroTeX eDucation Bundle:
  We consider only WYSIWYG editing documents powered by AcroTeX. To convert these documents into PDF you should use DVIPS + Distiller way. Improvements include:
  • Smooth work around of unsupported 'pdfmark' features.
  • Improved configuration of HyperRef package.
  • Defined paper sizes used by AcroTeX.
  It was tested only with 'AcroTeX eDucation Bundle' available on CTAN. AcroTeX Presentation Bundle is not tested.
• User macros support cross reference labels [TeXWord]
  User macros have additional place holder ('??') which will be replaced by cross reference label. At executing macro with such place holder(s) desired label is asked in special dialog. Then all appearances of '??' are replaced by selected label. This approach may be useful to define frequently used reference templates such as:
  'see section \ref{??} on page \pageref{??}'.
• Text/LaTeX Toolbars in TeXWord and Centaur have been redesigned as following:
  • changed order of buttons to match order of most popular word processign appications. I.e. style, font family, font size, Bold, Italic, underline, etc.
  • Font families (roman, sans serif, typewriter) are joined into single submenu.
  • Only italic font shape is present by button, other font shapes are available via additional submenu.
• Ctrl+O, Ctrl+F, Ctrl+S - more standard key binding in TeXWord and Centaur:
  We have made more standard key binding asked by many users:
  • Ctrl+O - bind to 'File/Open';
  • Ctrl+F - bind to 'Search/Find' (unbind from textsf/frac).
  • Ctrl+S - bind to 'File/Save' (unbind from textsl/sqrt);
  Alternative shortcuts for useful commands:
  • Shift+Ctrl+F -> bind to frac (was Ctrl+F) [TeXWord];
  • Shift+Ctrl+S -> bind to sqrt (math) (was Ctrl+S) [TeXWord];
  • Shift+Alt+F -> Font Family [TeXWord and Centaur]
    So, use [Shift+Alt+F S] key for \textsf and [Shift+Alt+F T] key for \texttt;
  • Shift+Alt+S -> More Font Shapes [TeXWord and Centaur]
    So, use [Shift+Alt+S S] key for \textsl and [Shift+Alt+S C] key for \textsc;
  • Shift+Alt+P -> Font Size [TeXWord and Centaur]
    
  • Ctrl+T - unbind from \texttt (not needed after toolbar redesign)
    You can use [Shift+Alt+F T] key.
• CMYK Output in PDF Generation has been improved.
  New approach avoids converting colors defined in CMYK, so that PDF output includes preciselly the same CMYK colors as defined in specials.
• Recovered Gather command in Centaur (CustomToAnsi).
• \usepackage[pdfcretor=...]{hyperref} is now work.

Version 8.12 (7-Oct-2007)

• Enabled binding User Macros to user toolbar in TeXWord.
• Fixed error in placing complex formulas by using PSFrag package (DVIEW/TeXWord).
• Fixed openning of BIB file with full-path specification (BiBEdit).
• Fixed chdir after rebuilding ls-R - violates multi file support ...
• Fixed 'Options/Install DVIPS font MAP file ...' to handle '<['-form of record.

Version 8.11 (25-Aug-2007)

• Automatical disabling caching images imported by PSfrag package.
• Enabled caching of graphics included via absolute path, such as '\includegraphics{c:/graphics/foo.eps}'.
• Valid key binding of Alt Gr key for german keyboard. AltGr+7 ... AltGr+0 inserts proper keys without a warning.
• TeXWord/Proof Window: Enter key has more smart approach for creating new paragraphs.

Version 8.10 (7-Aug-2007)

• 'Use Imported Graphics Cache' - new option.
  This feature enables caching graphics imported by \includegraphics LaTeX command. It improves editing/viewing documents with complex EPS and PDF graphics. It is nice choose instead of disabling imported images at editing time.
• 'Use Slide Background Cache (PowerDot)' - new option.
  This feature enables caching slide background drawn by presentation packages. Currently, this feature has effect only for PowerDot package. However, it may be extended for another packages. For example see 'BaKoMa/tex/latex/powerdot-cls.fix'.
• 'Imported Graphics Appearance' - renamed option (was 'Figures/Bounding Boxes').
  It was renamed to be more consistent with new options. Disabling imported images by using this option is obsolete recommendation now, because using image cache provide almost the same editing speed.

  (b) handling embedded unnamed Type3 fonts.
• Fixed collision between UTF8 tracking and multi-file support.

Version 8.0 (15-Jun-2007)

• UNICODE Support - UTF8
• TeXWord Improvements
• Update notes - Very Important

UNICODE Support - UTF8.

In BaKoMa TeX 8.0, UTF8 is supported via complete Unicode (there is no restrictions related with current code page). Also, many features in BaKoMa TeX 8.0 internally works via Unicode. It includes spell checker, search, keyboard input, displaying, etc.

You can easily switch between encodings (UTF8/ANSI) on the fly without reloading file. This feature permits editing documents mixed from different encodings.

Centaur spell checker converts 7bit TeX encoded words (such as 'Stra\ss e' or even 'Stra"se') into unicode internally, so that it can check such words correctly. There is no restriction related with current code page, so that you can simultaneously spell words from such languages as german, polish, vietnamese (whose are not fitted into single code page). Under TeXWord spell checker is restricted by current font encoding. So, using T1 encodings permits simultaneous spell checking such languages as german, polish, czech, french, etc.

Read also Update notes to learn more features related with unicode support.

TeXWord Improvements.

1. Handling TeX Errors - new feature.
   Now you can browse through TeX error messages in console window, by using buttons with red arrows at right bottom corner of TeXWord main window. These buttons are shown only when error messages are in console window. So, that appearing of these buttons signals that some errors exist. At browsing through errors caret is automatically moved to error source with accuracy of a single character.
2. User/Manage User Macros -- new menu.
   This dialog lets you to add own commands to 'User' menu. Commands are defined to insert text fragments with optional placeholder marks. First placeholder is replaced (at insertion) by selected text or just selected for immediate replacement. To jump to next placeholders Shift+Tab key in source window may be used.
3. Search in Text Source Window.
   It is available via context menu (when no selection) or via shortcut keys: F3, Alt+F3, Shift+F3.
   Search in Preview window is redesigned for more consistency.
4. Input focus in source window is now stable.
   Focus is returned to source window after all operations (invoking menu, opening dialogs, clicking toolbar and panel buttons, etc.) and even after switching to another application. This feature enables using all TeXWord input tools at editing in source window.
   Also, at editing in source window you can make selection by mouse in preview window without changing focus to preview window by keeping SHIFT key pressed.
5. Insert/Document Properties/Language - improved approach.
   Now this dialog touch 'fontenc' package when needed and other options related with multilingual typesetting. In short, if you have choose, for example, german language, it prepares editor to typeset german document in 8bit CP1252 encoding.
6. Speller Dialog is redesigned and have two additional commands to install more dictionaries:
   • Install from Internet - click it and choose desired language from list.
   • Install from Local Disk - helps to install dictionaries already preloaded on disk.
7. TeXOpen - new tex file opening gate.
   This tool is associated with *.TEX files. It checks TeX-source and choose what to launch TeXWord or Centaur.
8. Mouse wheel scrolls window under mouse cursor instead of window with keyboard focus. It works across all BaKoMa TeX programs. For example, you can scroll DVIEW window without switching focus to it.
9. Menu and dialog accelerators work with any keyboard.
   This feature is useful for writing non-latin languages such as greek and cyrillic.

Update notes

Speller Dictionaries

• LOCAL/DICT directory with speller dictionaries is rearranged.
  Dictionaries should be placed into subdirectories according to language.
  I.e. move english dictionaries to LOCAL/DICT/English directory, german dictionaries into LOCAL/DICT/German directory, etc.
• Codepage of speller dictionaries must be defined correctly.
  This information is required because speller internally works in unicode. To check code pages of all dictionaries open dialog 'Options/Speller Configuration', follow to 'Common Dictionaries' tab. Then select sequentially every dictionary in list and check that 'Code Page' value is set properly. If no, just choose valid value.
• User Dictionary is now keeps words in UTF8 encoding.
  To use already existing 'User Dictionary' you must convert it from ANSI to UTF8.
  To convert user dictionary load it into Centaur Text editor, open dialog 'Edit/Convert Between Encodings', choose input encoding of your dictionary, output encoding - UTF8, and click [Convert] button. Finally, save the dictionary.

User Menu in TeXWord

• Just choose another menu name for your macros.
• Remove creating 'User' menu [(&User@5) (Alt+U) /nop menukeydef]
  In this case custom definitions will coexists with definitions whose user can define online.

Updating Additional Modules

• czech.bkz - fixed definition of IL2 encoding.
• polish.bkz - fixed definition of QX encoding.
• Russian.bkz - spell dictionary has been moved into 'Russian' subdirectory.
• vnTeX.bkz - Added definitions of VISCII, TCVN, and T5 encodings.

Patch 7.52 (21-Apr-2006)

• Refined handling t-components of FontMatrix. [AS]
• Fixed color of imagemask in PDF generation. [JG: CorelDraw 12 pattern filling]
• Fixed clearing label list (by \label{}) in inserting \ref and \pageref [DC].

Patch 7.51 (16-Mar-2006) Hot Fix

• Ctrl+M in text mode enters inline math, but in math mode enters text mode by using \text command of AmsLaTeX.
• Fixed problem of adding some packages (TestPackage of array).

Version 7.50 (12-Mar-2006)

TeXWord Improvements

• Ctrl+Up, Ctlr+Down keys move caret out of current TeX group.
  Shift+Ctrl+Up, Shift+Ctrl+Down keys move caret with selection,
  that enables sequential selecting nested groups (like to multiple mouse clicks).
• Ctrl+Enter key inserts a stuff depend on context (LaTeX command around caret).
  In itemize, enumerate environments (including short and running variants) it inserts `\item'.
  In description environemnt - `\item[label]'.
  In thebibliography environemnt - `\bibitem[label]'.
  In eqnarray, align, flalign, alignat environments - `\\'.
      [In advance, Shift+Tab key inserts alignment point (`&').]
  Inside other contexts Ctrl+Enter key skips one nested group by moving caret like to Ctrl+Down key.
  So, that repeated pressing Ctrl+Enter key will skip nested groups and then insert proper stuff.
  Note, that Enter key in eqnarray and align environments inserts `\\' without skipping nested groups,
  In this reason, using Ctrl+Enter key is more robust approach.
• Math superscripts (`^{...}') and subscripts (`_{...}') have context commands for decompose and cut an object.
  After decomposing a script, text is still selected so that you can imediatly applay another markup command for it. For example, another scripting command. Ctrl+Up and Ctrl+Down keys moves caret out of script context properly.
• `Insert|RAW TeX Code' (Ins) -- new command.
  It displays simple dialog to insert RAW TeX code. In most cases it is more faster and more robust then entering TeX commands in source window.
• Wasy symbols panel has been added. [06/03/10]
• Phaistos symbols panel has been added [06/02/21]
  See: `BaKoMa/TeXWord/Panels/Phaistos.tex'

• `BaKoMa/TeXWord/latex2e.ex6' file demonstrates how to define insertion of math scripts like to Lyx (by using the strokes `^' and `_').
• `RequirePackage' (PS) checks existing of required package.
  In case of absent package some simple undo and diagnostic is done.

Other Improvements

• Changed preferences of substituting Palatino fonts.
  Try list is URW,Linotype (reversed). It is because URW fonts have better matched metric then linotype fonts. [06/02/24]
• Console buffer size may be changed by setting variable buffer_size in [Console] section of TEXMF.INI file.
• `invertmatrix' fix [AK].

Version 7.46 (20-Feb-2006)

TeXWord Improvements

• Added panel for inserting `Martin Vogel Symbols'.
  Known bug of marvosym package (conflict of Rightarrow with LaTeX kernel) has been avoided by inserting additional codes before and after `\usepackage'.
• TeXWord launches BibTeX according to TEXMF.INI[BibTeX]
  (which is in agree with Centaur approach) instead of predefined command.
  [7.45-06/02/08, XS]
• Insert/Index Entry (\index) -- improved handling of selected text broken across lines.
• Converting `figure' environment to 'floatingfigure' (floatflt.sty) or `wrapfigure' (wrapfig.sty) environment by using contenxt menu (`Wrap Figure' option).
  [Experimental]
  Main problem is that `floatingfigure' environemnt should be appeared in vertical mode

Fixed Bugs

• PDF2EPS includes more flexible handling of Type42 fonts embedded by OpenOfice/Draw.
  [7.45-06/02/08,VSA]
• beamer page size is changed from 363,272 to 362,272 in order to avoid a white stripe on the right border.
  [7.45-06/02/08, MJCE]

Updated Modules

• quicksetup.exe (programs/bkmtex.exe, programs/texword.bkz)
  bkmtex.exe - PDF2EPS, texword.bkz - TeXWord fixes.
• fonts/lmodern.bkz [Available on CTAN since 1-Feb-2006]
  It includes Latin Modern (LM) fonts in OpenType font format.

Version 7.44 (14-Dec-2005)

TeXWord Improvements

• Improved support of multi-file LaTeX documents.
  It includes: handling files in subdirectories (\include{foo/foo.tex}),
  improved caret moving between source files, selection, fixing related bugs, etc.
• 'Window|Show Outline' (new option)
  Provides quick way to hide/show document outline window by using keyboard shortcut (Alt+W O)
  Alternative shortcut may be defined in TeXWord/texword.mnu file.
• Improved diagnostic in case of loading document which use document class not available in current latex setup.

Updated Packages

• PowerDot 1.3 (latex2e.bkz, quicksetup)
• hdvips.def file is improved to support packages whose call hyperef with 'dvips' option.

Fixed Bugs

• Contents page is not updated or even dismiss when caret.x == 0 or in other conditions.
  This fix touches itex.dll (texword.bkz), ietex.dll (etex.bkz).
• BUG: Incorrect `InvalidatePages' when editing multiple sources. So, if current page uses one included file, but next page (which top is visible) includes another source file invalidation is computed incorrectly. Problem was related with mismatched file names.
• dict dict copy -- Postscript Level 1 restrictions are removed.

Updated Modules

• quicksetup.exe (programs/bkmtex.exe, programs/texword.bkz, macros/latex2e.bkz)
  latex2e.bkz includes updated packages such as PowerDot, PSTricks, etc.
• programs/etex.bkz
  It is required for using TeXWord with e-TeX. Fixed View/Refresh (F5) bug.

Version 7.40 (25-Sep-2005)

• TeXWord Improvements
• New Templates
• Graphics Improvements
• LaTeX packages update
  It is important that together with upgrading to BaKoMa TeX 7.40 LaTeX must be updated.
  We recommend to upgrade BaKoMa TeX by using QuickSetup.

TeXWord Improvements

• `Window|Docking Source/Console Windows' (new option)
  defines way to split (vertical/horizontal) main window between page window and source text windows.
  Options are: Bottom, Left, Right.
• Fixing problem with loading many dictionaries (up to 32) in TeXWord and Centaur. More dictionaries are smoothly ignored. Empty dictionaries are skipped. Limit of number of opened files is extended to provide more free file handlers at importing figures. (Observed at installing German dictionaries) [7.38-05/08/31]
• Refined handling collision of binding the same keys in latex2e.usr, texword.usr.
• Enabling binding such keys as Ctrl+<, Ctrl+[, etc.

New Templates

• PowerDot package
• Beamer package
• LLNCS: Lecture Notes in Computer Science from Springer-Verlag

Graphics Improvements

• automatical converting large integers (overflow) into reals.
• refined rounding color components in device CS (setrgbcolor, setcmykcolor, etc.)
• Fixed bug in `reversepath' operator (observed on PST-light3d package).
• Fixed bug in gif2eps (transparency) [7.39]
• Fixed bug in tiff2eps (minsblack) [7.39]

LaTeX packages update

Extended default value of hyph_size to 10000 from 1000 to load ushyphex.tex (tugboat). [7.38-05/08/31]

It is important that LaTeX module must be updated after updating BaKoMa TeX Kernel, because templates, postscript prologs, and other stuffs are intended for updated LaTeX bundle.

PSTricks
After upgrading some DVI files may be failed -- just recompile them by TeX.
It is because of changed prologs of PSTricks package.

Prosper
Prosper package now generates (by default) slides in landscape orientation on portrait page. To view them in DVIEW or edit in TeXWord use `View/Orientation/Landscape' menu option. Also visit `Options/Document Properties/Paper' dialog to set: Paper Stype=Prosper, Orientation=Portrait, and proper margins.

Version 7.37 (22-Aug-2005)

• `View|Figures/Bounding Boxes' option in TeXWord and DVIEW have three variants:
  (1) Figures only; (2) Figures and Bounding Boxes; (3) Only Bounding Boxes.
  Last option is new. It is useful for document whose import complex PostScript figures.
  It is most important in TeXWord, but may be also useful in DVIEW.
• TeXWord: Inline math is marked by \( ... \) instead of \begin{math} ... \end{math}.
• Refined Compatibility with EPS saved from Adobe Illustrator 12 [05/08/11]
  Fixed: imagemask /Decode [0 255], /Separation string name and packedarray transformation, ASCII85 string bug, extended limit of Postscript path length up to 256 K points.
• Fixed hanging of TeXWord with amsart, amsbook classes
  [problem with saving hyphenation exceptions (\hyphenation)]
• Refined spell check of words with ligatures (i.e. with Times fonts) in TeXWord.

Version 7.36 (26-Jul-2005)

• TeXWord: instant update of source text window.
  [comp.text.tex:bakoma micro-review: Pressing the back button continuously to delete text causes the source text window not to update instantly.]
• TeXWord: Remove selected text at entering letters in source text window. [Eeten]
• TeXWord/DVIEW: clipsave/cliprestore Postscript Level 3 operators added.

• TeXWord: fixed erasepage in View/Orientation = landscape.

Version 7.35 (18-Jul-2005)

• Improved moving caret/selection in preview window of TeXWord by using left/right arrows. New approach avoids looping around accented letters and jumping into first appearance of duplicated strings such as headings. Jumps are also avoided at editing duplicated strings. Selection works properly at moving under control sequencies (no resetting). Selection isn't extended because of duplicated strings (i.e. headings). [7.35(05/07/18), 7.32(05/06/28)]
• New `View/Orientation' option in TeXWord and DVIEW lets choose orientation: Portrait, Landscape, Seascape, Upside-down. [7.34(05/07/14), 7.33(05/06/30)]

  This option enables automatical killing child process at closing Console window. By default this feature is enabled, i.e child process running under console will be killed at closing console window without a question. When this option is disabled user is asked what to do with child process. [7.31(05/06/16)]
• Fixed problem of missjustified strings in generated PDF files under Acrobat Ver ≤ 5, that is related with overflow of Acrobat arithmetic. [7.31(05/06/16)]
• Fixed initializing controls in PDF generation dialog (TeXWord/DVIEW). [7.31(05/06/16)]
