Typographic fine-tuning and micro-typographic enhancements

This package provides macros for micro-typographic enhancements. It covers a variety of topics:

  • precise hyphenation control,

  • disable/break ligatures,

  • manual italic correction,

  • extra kerning for slash and hyphen,

  • raising selected characters (e.g., hyphen, en-dash, and em-dash)

  • aligning and filling of the last line of a paragraph,

  • word spacing control,

  • microtype and setspace front-end,

  • slightly sloppy paragraphs,

  • vertically partially-tied paragraphs,

  • breakable displayed equations,

  • smooth ragged-right paragraphs.

Moreover, typog provides an environment to flag interesting parts of the information deluge typically accumulating in a LaTeX log-file and an associated tool, typog-grep, that selectively retrieves these parts.
