Following the suggestion in the Babel-Azerbaijani documentation,
we use the glyphs from the Cyrillic fonts for the Latin
text character. This fits better than IPA fonts (assuming there are matching
Latin and Cyrillic fonts specified) and also provides bold etc.
since we auto-load "textcomp" now also for encodable characters,
we no longer need to force conversions defined in ts1enc.dfu.
FIXME: this is currently not working as intended, because
exclusion (force != ...) seems to fail with a list of encodings
and the characters are nevertheless force-converted.
This reverts commit c56adfc8ec.
I am reverting this because LyX uses an italic font for representing
mathalpha symbols and it is funny when a vertical arrow looks like
a leaning tower.
The unicodesymbols file should be audited in order to add the
mathalpha flag to all symbols having a math representation.
If the flag is missing, when pasting in mathed a given symbol
with a math definition, one gets \text{\ensuremath{\symbname}}
because LyX assumes that the symbol is a textmode one by default.
* Force unicodesymbols conversion for all *-platex input encodings,
* except some characters that work well in utf8.
* Use platex if document language is "japanese" and input encoding is "utf8".
The "nikud" (vowel) signs, shindot, and shindot are combining Unicode
characters. However, LaTeX-Hebrew expects them as postfix characters, not
accent macros (cf. www.cs.tau.ac.il/~stoledo/Bib/Pubs/vowels.pdf).
* Fix macro termination if \textcyrillic or \textgreek is not required
for Greek or Cyrillic letter.
* Replace "writeScriptChars" with conditionals in the character-output loop in
"Paragraph::latex" (solves "FIXME: modifying i here is not very nice...").
The font changing commands \textcyrillic and \textgreek are no longer
part of the textcommand in "lib/unicodesymbols" but added when required
in Paragraph::Private::latexSpecialChar.
Xe/LuaTeX convert \AA to the deprecated character u212B (which is missing
in the default LatinModern font) instead of the recommended u00C5.
Also fix some of the "missing character" errors in Math.lyx if compiled with
Xe/LuaTeX which were caused by the replacement of \AA with literal u212B characters
in math-insets due to the old definitions in unicodesymbols.
Update the minimal example for failures of Math.lyx with system fonts.
If Document>Settings>Language>Encoding is set to any value except "auto" or "default", we
expect the whole document to use this encoding. Wiht encodings from the CJK package, this means
one big "CJK" environment and no encoding switches.
Characters that are not handled by the CJK package need to be "forced" in lib/unicodesymbols.
This is completed for "euc-cn", the others will follow.
The textcomp Unicode support file "ts1enc.dfu" defines 0x204E Low Asterisk
as \textasteriskcentered. LyX should follow suit.
The ASTERISK OPERATOR (correctly) maps to the same macro,
the "deprecated" tag marks the upstream mapping as preferred choice.
Added "force=iso8859-7" for some characters:
The iso8859-7.def file for the Greek 8-bit input encoding
used \textbullet as placeholder for non-defined characters.
This is fixed in v1.7 2019/01/08.
Once the fixed version is in common use, all "force=iso8859-7"
tags can be removed.
