Summary description: LaTeX classes and packages for Chinese typesetting
Announcement text:
This release adds FangSong font support for the `ubuntu` fontset, fixes a metadata inconsistency, refactors the source structure, and improves the documentation typography. NEW FEATURES - The `ubuntu` fontset now includes a FangSong configuration and the `\fangsong` command. When compiling with XeLaTeX or LuaLaTeX, the font is automatically selected from Zhuque FangSong, FandolFang, or Source Han Serif, in that order (#908). BUG FIXES - Fixed `\ProvidesExplFile` in `ctex-heading-*.def` where the declared filename (`ctex-*.def`) did not match the actual filename. IMPROVEMENTS - Split the monolithic `ctex.dtx` into six source files: `ctex.dtx` (install script and user documentation), `ctex-kernel.dtx`, `ctex-engine.dtx`, `ctex-scheme.dtx`, `ctex-auxpkg.dtx`, and `ctex-fontset.dtx`. Refactoring by Xia Mingyu (#937). - Enabled `Language` and `PoZheHaoLigature` for the documentation font, so that em dashes render as full-width ligatures (#382). - Switched the documentation monospaced font to Zhuque FangSong and the italic font to LXGW WenKai GB Lite (#908). Source code: https://github.com/CTeX-org/ctex-kit Issue tracker: https://github.com/CTeX-org/ctex-kit/issues

CTeX – LaTeX classes and packages for Chinese typesetting
ctex is a bundle of LaTeX classes and packages for typesetting documents in Chinese. It works with the (pdf)LaTeX, XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX engines, supports GB2312 / UTF-8 / Unicode input, integrates Chinese punctuation kerning, multi-engine font configuration, and provides Chinese-style section heading commands for the standard article / book / report classes.
