I've just finished re-compiling a volume of mathematical journal.
The test is successful.

Next week, I intend to carry out a test re-compilation of a volume of russian-language mathematical journal.

Good to hear this was successful.

Thanks,

I'm puzzled by the posted code, in that it shows loading packages mathtime AND mtpro AND mtpro2.

Were those three separate runs of the same document, to try the three different packages?

This is the code from style file;
it shows the evolution.
As you see, the old lines are commented out.

Oops: I missed the beginning-of-line comment symbols because I also saw the end-of-line comments to the far right.

Done. Ok.

The specific code as compared with the above English-journal test
is as follows:
In style file

Code: Select all

\PassOptionsToPackage&#123;british,russian&#125;&#123;babel&#125;
\PassOptionsToPackage&#123;mathcal&#125;&#123;mathpi&#125;

and in the source file

Code: Select all

\usepackage&#91;koi8-r&#93;&#123;inputenc&#125;

Here, I preferred to preserve Adobe's Mathematical Script font because it is much closer to our traditions.
Of course, I removed `mtpcal' from the options passed to mtpro2.

P.S. This test is carried out with version 0.98.

I've tested one issue (randomly chosen out of six ones
which were used to test 0.98) with version 0.991,
as proposed, with "boldalphabet" option.
Haven't seen problems.

As for now, I can use mtpro2 with no need to keep in mind that it is a beta.

Posted: **Sat Apr 22, 2006 6:06 pm**

This week, I plan to test 0.994 on a journal issue, again,
and, probably, on an AMS translations series book
on matrices with heavy math.
Surely, I will report on results.

Test with journal volume Ok.

Now it seems to me that the base and alternative images of
script Q should be interchanged.
But this desire is probably due to the fact that I routinely use
Adobe script font (MathematicalPi Two).
