113 | \section{History} | ||
114 | \label{sec:history} | ||
115 | \emph{Old Standard} is a remarkable creation of Alexey Kryukov, | ||
116 | inspired by a typeface most commonly used in books printed in the late | ||
117 | \textsc{xix}\textsuperscript{th} and early | ||
118 | \textsc{xx}\textsuperscript{th} century. The source files, which can | ||
119 | be found online,\footnote{See | ||
120 | \url{https://github.com/akryukov/oldstand}} have been published | ||
121 | under the terms of the OFL license (see above, sect{.} | ||
122 | \vref{sec:license}). However, at the time of writing, the latest | ||
123 | update dates back to Aug. 12, 2013. To be more precise, all of the | ||
124 | five \enquote*{commits} the writer was able to see were pushed on the | ||
125 | very same day. Since then, two \enquote*{pull requests} dating back to | ||
126 | 2017 have been remained unanswered. It is therefore to be feared that | ||
127 | the project has been abandoned. | ||
128 | |||
129 | To date, this release of \emph{Old Standard} has been published by | ||
130 | Nikola Lečić and Bob Tennent and is available on CTAN and {\TeX}Live | ||
131 | with a style file.\footnote{See | ||
132 | \url{https://ctan.org/pkg/oldstandard}} | ||
133 | |||
134 | Being unable himself to contact the author, the writer, while in need | ||
135 | to have new letters included in \emph{Old Standard} and some issues | ||
136 | addressed, took the decision to release \emph{Old Standard T}. | ||
137 | |||
138 | \paragraph{Important disclaimer} | ||
139 | The writer is very far from being able to design glyphs \emph{ex | ||
140 | nihilo}. That aside, he has some limited knowledge in the use of | ||
141 | FontForge, and, as a classicist, he is able to scrutinize how features | ||
142 | operate and if they operate as expected. | ||
143 | |||
144 | In \emph{Old Standard T}, the letter \emph{T} stands for | ||
145 | \emph{Transient}, which means that \emph{Old Standard T} should only | ||
146 | stay as long as what it features is not included in \emph{Old | ||
147 | Standard}. | ||
148 | |||
149 | \section{Documentation} | ||
150 | \label{sec:documentation} | ||
151 | No documentation is associated with \emph{Old Standard T} as every | ||
152 | item of the original extensive documentation applies. The reader | ||
153 | should refer to it.\icite{oldstandard} | ||
154 | |||
155 | \section{Additions and corrections provided by | ||
156 | Old Stan\-dard~T} | ||
157 | \label{sec:addit-corr-prov} | ||
158 | \emph{Old Standard T} includes new letters and some corrections: | ||
159 | \begin{compactenum} | ||
160 | \item Small capitals for Roman, Greek and Cyrillic letters, in all | ||
161 | three styles, Regular, Italic and Bold have been added. Small | ||
162 | capitals, which are missing from \emph{Old Standard}, were already | ||
163 | in use a century ago in fine books which used font faces very | ||
164 | similar to \emph{Old Standard}. Typical use cases of small capitals | ||
165 | were headers, current headings and in some books proper names. | ||
166 | \item The letter G with caron above, that is: Ǧ (\verb|U+01E6|, | ||
167 | uppercase) and ǧ (\verb|U+01E7|, lowercase) has been added. It is | ||
168 | the only character missing from \emph{Old Standard} that is needed | ||
169 | in some of the accepted standards of romanization of classical | ||
170 | Arabic. See for references the current documentation of the | ||
171 | \pkg{arabluatex} package.\footnote{\icite{arabluatex}[cite], sect{.} | ||
172 | \enquote{Transliteration}.} | ||
173 | \item Additionally, \emph{Old Standard T} corrects the \verb|+ss06| | ||
174 | feature provided by \emph{Old Standard}. This feature is supposed to | ||
175 | distinguish between regular and \enquote*{curled} beta (β/ϐ) and to | ||
176 | print \enquote*{curled} beta (\verb|U+03D0|) in medial | ||
177 | position. This feature works in most cases with \emph{Old | ||
178 | Standard}. However, it fails if the beta is preceded by a vowel | ||
179 | with an acute accent taken from the Greek extended Unicode block. | ||
180 | \end{compactenum} | ||
