hamnosys - Using HamNoSys in

This is the package hamnosys, which makes the HamNoSys font available in documents. The Hamburg Notation System, HamNoSys for short, is a system for the phonetic transcription of signed languages.

Requirements

The hamnosys package requires XeLaTeX or Lua. It has been tested on Live 2021.

Installation

If your distribution does not contain the package, you can install it manually by copying the files hamnosys.sty and HamNoSysUnicode.ttf from this repository. To install it locally for a single project, copy the files into the root directory of your project. To install it globally, copy the files into a hamnosys/ subdirectory in the appropriate location in your installation. To generate the documentation, compile hamnosys.dtx using XeLaTeX or Lua.

To use HamNoSys in other parts of your operating system and for a wider range of input methods, see the HamNoSys Software Package.

Usage

The package provides three methods of entering HamNoSys symbols:

  1. Direct input of HamNoSys symbols as Unicode characters. As HamNoSys symbols can only be displayed by the HamNoSys font, you must either
    1. explicitly switch fonts using \texthamnosys{} or \hamnosysfont, or
    2. use the autofont package option ( only).
  2. Listing HamNoSys symbol names inside the command \hamnosys{}.
  3. Using the commands that have been defined for each individual HamNoSys symbol.
