哎呀!我们错过了 1.8 版本的发布公告,所以这里有一篇简短的文章,介绍 版本 1.9 中 PTXprint 的一些最新功能,让您了解最新动态。
如果您觉得需要 了解 PTXprint 的概览 或 探索高级功能,这些指向 EMDC 在线存档的链接(需要注册才能访问)是一个很好的起点。
如果您还没有注意到,PTXprint 产品网站 已经进行了重组,不再将所有内容挤在一个页面上。如果您已经有一段时间没有使用 PTXprint 了,您可能想查看一下 图库,其中展示了该工具目前可以实现的效果示例。点击任何图片即可放大,并查看说明当前聚焦功能的标题。如果您想知道 PTXprint 与 Publishing Assistant 有何不同,请查看 此页面 以获取解释。
新功能:
-
现在可以在中间栏中包含自动本地化的来自外部列表的交叉引用 - 类似于您在研经本/参考本圣经中看到的内容
其结果类似于下面所示的输出:
-
添加了优化的 PDF 输出格式 选项以符合 PDF 标准
(数字=RGB,打印=CYMK,透明度和存档) - 参见高级选项卡

-
Polyglot(多语对照)支持现在已在 TeX 宏中可用(但尚未包含在 PTXprint 中)
在我们继续将此功能添加到(已经相当复杂的)用户界面之前,了解有多少人对此新功能感兴趣以及您的使用场景会很有趣。点击 回复 告诉我们……
次要改进:
-
将难以找到的 Adv/Basic 模式滑块更改为 Show More/Less(显示更多/更少)按钮
-
允许将 PDF 用作插图(除了 jpg, tif, png, bmp 等之外)
-
允许页面大小分隔符使用 , 或 x 作为尺寸分隔符
-
允许 PrintDraftChanges.txt 使用关键字 'at' 进行特定位置的更改,例如:
at GAL 3:16 "yesukrist" > "yesu krist" (only make this change in one verse)
at JHN "kurpa" > "permata daya" (only make this change in one book)
at ROM 1:3 '\\v 3' > '\\v 3-4' (blending verses for short marginal verses)
at ROM 1:4 '\\v 4 ' > ''
-
添加了即时桥接经文的功能(对页边经文很有用)
-
在配置双栏本(diglot)的次要项目时,添加了返回主项目的按钮
-
添加了省略标题(Omit Captions)选项用于插图

-
添加了钩子,允许在章节换页时重置调用者(通过在 .tex 文件中使用自定义代码,可以在章节换页时重置脚注和交叉引用的调用者)
-
在排版模块时,在 Final SFM 选项卡中显示展开/扁平化的模块
-
改进了布局页面(Layout page)上的边距计算、措辞和图形
-
提高了 AdjList 创建过程的稳健性和准确性
-
改进了错误消息中的上下文信息,以帮助更好地跟踪问题
像往常一样,还有数十个次要错误修复。因此,更新到最新版本绝对值得。 现在访问下载页面……
注意:\f 和 \x 的子标记现在遵循其父标记样式的设置。因此,脚注和交叉引用的显示方式可能会发生变化。建议在尝试手动修复设置之前,重置这些样式以使用默认设置。
Oops! We missed the announcement for 1.8, so here’s a quick post about version 1.9 bringing you up to speed on some of the newest features in PTXprint.
These links to the EMDC Online archives (which require you to be enrolled to access them) are a good place to start if you feel like you need to get an overview of PTXprint, or explore advanced features.
And if you haven’t yet noticed, the PTXprint product site has been restructured so that it is no longer crammed onto a single page. If it has been a while since you last used PTXprint, you may want to check out the Gallery with examples of what is currently possible with this tool. Click on any image to enlarge it and see the caption explaining which feature is in focus. And if you’re wondering about what makes PTXprint different from Publishing Assistant, then check out this page for an explanation.
New features:
-
Ability to include auto-localized cross-references from external lists in a center column - similar to what you would see in a study/reference Bible
Which results in output similar to what is shown below:
-
Added optimized PDF Output Format options for PDF standards compliance
(Digital=RGB, Print=CYMK, Transparency, and Archive) - see Advanced tab

-
Polyglot support is now available in the TeX macros (but not yet included in PTXprint)
Before we go ahead and add this feature to the (already quite complex) user-interface, it would be interesting to hear how many people are interested in this new feature, and what your use-case(s) would be. Hit Reply and let us know…
Minor improvements:
-
Changed the hard-to-find Adv/Basic mode slider to a Show More/Less button
-
Allow PDFs to be used as illustrations (in addition to jpg, tif, png, bmp, etc.)
-
Allow page size separator to use , or x as dimension separator
-
Allow PrintDraftChanges.txt to do location-specific changes using keyword ‘at’, for example:
at GAL 3:16 "yesukrist" > "yesu krist" (only make this change in one verse)
at JHN "kurpa" > "permata daya" (only make this change in one book)
at ROM 1:3 '\\v 3' > '\\v 3-4' (blending verses for short marginal verses)
at ROM 1:4 '\\v 4 ' > ''
-
Added ability for on-the-fly bridged verses (useful for marginal verses)
-
Added button to Return to primary project when configuring secondary project of diglot
-
Added option to Omit Captions for illustrations

-
Added hook to allow triggering of caller reset on chapter breaks (enables resetting footnote and cross-reference callers at chapter breaks by using custom code in .tex file)
-
Show expanded/flattened module in Final SFM tab when typesetting a module
-
Improved margin calculations, wording and graphics on the Layout page
-
Improved robustness and accuracy of AdjList creation process
-
Improved context information in error messages to help track issues better
And as usual there have been dozens of minor bug fixes. So it is certainly worth updating to the latest version. Visit the Download page now…
NOTE: The child markers of \f and \x now follow the settings of their parent marker styles. As a result there may be changes in the way footnotes and cross-references appear. It is recommended that you reset these styles to use the default settings prior to trying to remedy settings manually.
