Files ----- ### TeXinputs kotexplain.tex -> tex/plain/kotex/ kotexutf.tex -> tex/plain/kotex/ kotexutf-core.tex -> tex/plain/kotex/ hangulcweb.tex -> tex/plain/kotex/ ### Documents README (this file) -> doc/plain/kotex/ ChangeLog -> doc/plain/kotex/ Usage ----- To typeset Hangul, start your document as follows: \input kotexplain You should use `etex` or `pdftex` commands to compile the document since kotex-plain uses e-TeX primitives. Also keep in mind that Korean documents needs to be encoded in UTF-8. To specify Hangul fonts, you can use the following methods: * `\hfont{outbb}{at 12pt}`: This command set the current Hangul font as 12 point bold. This is the most general way of specifying Hangul fonts. * `\hfontname{outbtb}`: This is equivallent to `\hfont{outbb}{}`, which only applies bold typeface to the current font. * `\hfontsize{at 12pt}`: This command changes the size of the current font as 12 point. Same effect can be achieved by `\hfont{}{at 12pt}`. To use CWEB system for literate programming, you can use `hangulcweb.tex` as follows: \input hangulcweb For more information, please refer to the kotex-utf package documentation (written in Korean).
