I wonder then if it would be possible an Omega support ... Think so. John Plaice and I discussed it, and i think we agreed that they make a nice couple. You can also expect some developments in this area next year, since omega will have new features, and all those tex's around may even merge and grow (if pdftex and omega merge .... i will instantly switch). >Also, I noticed the T1 (=EC, or DC, or what you want to name it) encoding >support, but no font-* referring to the EC fonts; I saw one referring to the >CC fonts; aren't they the _old_ T1 encoded fonts? Shouldn't it be upgraded >to EC? You should look at the enco-* files, which replaced the encoding implementing font files. There is an enco-ec.tex file and ec is supported.
