ipaex-type1 PACKAGE

This package contains the IPAex Fonts converted into Unicode subfonts in Type1 format, which is most suitable for use with the CJK package. Font conversion was done with ttf2pt1.

Installation

Place the files in the package as follows:

  • tfm/*.tfm → $TEXMF/fonts/tfm/public/ipaex-type1/
    • type1/*.pfb → $TEXMF/fonts/type1/public/ipaex-type1/
    • enc/*.enc → $TEXMF/fonts/enc/dvips/ipaex-type1/
    • ipaex-type1.map → $TEXMF/fonts/map/dvips/ipaex-type1/
    • *.sty → $TEXMF/tex/latex/ipaex-type1/
    • *.fd, *.fdx → $TEXMF/tex/latex/ipaex-type1/

After that, invoke updmap as usual.

updmap --enable Map ipaex-type1.map

Usage in

After installation, you can use the following two font families,

  • ipxm = IPAexMincho
    • ipxg = IPAexGothic

in the following encodings:

  • OT1 / T1 / TS1 / LY1 encodings
    • UTF8 encoding of the CJK package (internally called C70)

An example of using an alphabetic encoding.

\documentclass{article}
\renewcommand{\rmdefault}{ipxm}
\renewcommand{\sfdefault}{ipxg}
\begin{document}
\textsf{Test}\quad Hello, {\TeX} world!
\end{document}

An example of using the CJK package.

% encoded in UTF-8
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{CJK}
\begin{document}
\begin{CJK*}{UTF8}{ipxm}
これは簡単なテスト文書です。
\end{CJK*}
\end{document}

In addition, the ipaex-type1 bundle of version 0.4 or later provides a package (also called “ipaex-type1”) which enables users to use the fonts more easily.

ipaex-type1 Package

Loading

There are no package options available.

\usepackage{ipaex-type1}

Usage

The description assumes that the CJK package is employed.

  • \ipxmfamily/\ipxgfamily: Changes both the CJK and non-CJK families to ipxm/ipxg.
    • \textipxm{<text>}/\textipxg{<text>}: The text-command version of the above.
    • \CJKipxmfamily/\CJKipxgfamily: Changes only the CJK family to ipxm/ipxg. (It is the same as \CJKfamily{ipxm} etc.)
    • \textCJKipxm{<text>}/\textCJKipxg{<text>}: The text-command version of the above.
    • \ipxmsymbol{<Unicode-point>}/\ipxgsymbol{<Unicode-point>}: Prints a CJK character with the given Unicode point using CJK family ipxm/ipxg. For example, \ipxmsymbol{"2603} has the same effect as {\CJKfamily{ipxm}\Unicode{"26}{"03}}.

When the CJK package is not loaded, or the commands are invoked outside CJK(*) environments, the effect on CJK families are generally omitted. Namely, \ipxmfamily will change the (sole, non-CJK) family to ipxm, and \CJKipxgfamily will do nothing. There are however some exceptions to the general rule, which are described in the following subsections.

\textCJKipxm/\textCJKipxg commands

When the CJK package is loaded and \textCJKipxm is invoked outside CJK environments, then the argument text will be automatically placed in a temporary CJK* environment. The example:

Japan (\textCJKipxm{日本})

has the same effect as:

Japan (\begin{CJK*}{UTF8}{ipxm}日本\end{CJK*})

\ipxmsymbol/\ipxgsymbol commands

These two commands can be used outside CJK environments and even without the CJK package. In that case, the CJK characters are treated like symbol characters. For example, if you need only to write a single Japanese word “日本” in your document, then you can dispense with the CJK package and write as follows:

Japan (\ipxmsymbol{"65E5}\ipxmsymbol{"672C})
