Donald P. Goodman submitted the
dozenal
package.
Version number: v5.0
License type: lppl1.3
Summary description: Typeset documents using base twelve numbering
(also called "dozenal")
Announcement text:
For version 5.0, the documentation and code structure was substantially cleansed, and a git repository was created for the package. I've also added the appropriate fontdimens to the font files, so that microtype won't complain about them. Finally, I've added \basex, a macro which will convert dozenal numbers to base X, but doesn't work on counters, which is frustrating.
This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/fonts/dozenal/ More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/dozenal Caution: This web page is currently afflicted with an unresolved bug that prevents it from updating some information.

dozenal – Typeset documents using base twelve numbering (also called dozenal
)
The package supports typesetting documents whose counters are
represented in base twelve, also called dozenal
.
It includes a macro by David Kastrup for converting positive whole
numbers to dozenal from decimal (base ten) representation. The
package also includes a few other macros and redefines all the
standard counters to produce dozenal output.
Fonts, in Roman, italic, slanted, and boldface versions, provide ten and eleven (the Pitman characters preferred by the Dozenal Society of Great Britain). The fonts were designed to blend well with the Computer Modern fonts, and are available both as METAFONT source and in Adobe Type 1 format.
