On Sat, 30 May 2009 Mojca Miklavec and Arthur Reutenauer submitted an update to
the
hyph-utf8
package.
Modern native UTF-8 engines such as XeTeX and LuaTeX need hyphenation patterns
in UTF-8 format, whereas older systems require hyphenation patterns in the 8-bit
encoding of the font in use (such encodings are codified in the LaTeX scheme
with names like OT1, T2A, TS1, OML, LY1, etc).
The present package offers a collection of conversions of existing patterns to
UTF-8 format, together with converters for use with 8-bit fonts in older
systems. Since hyphenation patterns for TeX are only read at iniTeX time, it is
hoped that the UTF-8 patterns, with their converters, will completely supplant
the older patterns.
