--- Begin Message ---Package: texlive-latex-extra Version: 2009-9 Severity: wishlist Greetings. Thank you for the earlier suggestions on greek letters in the section headings of hyperref related metadata (left frame of okular). In the past, I always took the trivial way out of producing the leading superscripting for isotopes, such as $\ ^{228}Th$. I never seen an issue with this, until I started columns in a table with this sort of input. The formatting of the table had the excess space in left formatted columns. Hence, I decided to look into using the isotope package (which has very little documentation). Being cautious, I was changing things in a peculiar way. Old ... $\ ^{228}Th$ was responsible for the aftershave effect with Axe products. New ... $\isotope[228]{Th}%$\ ^{228}Th$ was responsible for the aftershave effect with Axe products. The old output (rendered as ASCII, and ignoring superscripting) would be: ... 228Th was responsible for the aftershave effect with Axe products. The output (with my commenting out the old mathmode stuff) is ... 228Thwas responsible for the aftershave effect with Axe products. The space between "Ra" and "was" is eaten up if I put the commented section immediately after the replacement text. It is entirely possible that this is the way comments work in LaTeX, I've never run into this before. Commenting out code in Perl I've done a lot. But, perhaps a note about the isotope package for LaTeX could mention this? -- Package-specific info: If you report an error when running one of the TeX-related binaries (latex, pdftex, metafont,...), or if the bug is related to bad or wrong output, please include a MINIMAL example input file that produces the error in your report. Please run your example with (pdf)latex -recorder ... (or any other program that supports -recorder) and send us the generated file with the extension .fls, it lists all the files loaded during the run and can easily explain problems induced by outdated files in your home directory. Don't forget to also include minimal examples of other files that are needed, e.g. bibtex databases. Often it also helps to include the logfile. Please, never send included pictures! If your example file isn't short or produces more than one page of output (except when multiple pages are needed to show the problem), you can probably minimize it further. Instructions on how to do that can be found at http://www.latex-einfuehrung.de/mini-en.html (english) or http://www.latex-einfuehrung.de/mini.html (german) ################################## minimal input file ################################## other files ###################################### List of ls-R files -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1727 Jul 16 13:26 /var/lib/texmf/ls-R -rw-rw-r-- 1 root staff 80 Apr 17 19:32 /usr/local/share/texmf/ls-R lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 Jun 18 06:52 /usr/share/texmf/ls-R -> /var/lib/texmf/ls-R-TEXMFMAIN lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 May 26 13:25 /usr/share/texmf-texlive/ls-R -> /var/lib/texmf/ls-R-TEXLIVE lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 May 26 13:25 /usr/share/texmf-texlive/ls-R -> /var/lib/texmf/ls-R-TEXLIVE ###################################### Config files lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Jun 18 06:52 /usr/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf -> /etc/texmf/texmf.cnf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 10037 Jul 16 13:26 /var/lib/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 17183 Jul 16 13:26 /var/lib/texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 11605 Jul 16 13:26 /var/lib/texmf/tex/generic/config/language.dat ###################################### Files in /etc/texmf/web2c/ total 1 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 283 Apr 14 2007 mktex.cnf ###################################### md5sums of texmf.d 3875bf0f4a53a29b7f247399dc9833e2 /etc/texmf/texmf.d/05TeXMF.cnf 6e82a3d4c00ae7e4f86aa8dcf9438cf3 /etc/texmf/texmf.d/15Plain.cnf d588a08518f705d06ac262acd78f2bc4 /etc/texmf/texmf.d/20xmltex.cnf c60a084820a0b73e3bfbf2e90bda437c /etc/texmf/texmf.d/45TeXinputs.cnf ea33127256c6a9f37145ae5b16fdb80c /etc/texmf/texmf.d/55Fonts.cnf afccf1d3f87057411166a77c58e00bd1 /etc/texmf/texmf.d/65BibTeX.cnf 9da7c1c7b1eaf06f941af91f48a23068 /etc/texmf/texmf.d/75DviPS.cnf 7ae52efac46feb97010986e57877d12e /etc/texmf/texmf.d/80DVIPDFMx.cnf 055e06548bac99958d8ab2dd1248f2b4 /etc/texmf/texmf.d/80tex4ht.cnf 37329819f1109e8a457e64b8b58fecdb /etc/texmf/texmf.d/85Misc.cnf a8952d594677235951d447665ec46e9c /etc/texmf/texmf.d/90TeXDoc.cnf bab3b7e578107f999fa1b0768994f6f8 /etc/texmf/texmf.d/95NonPath.cnf 1df66bc319cec731e202eaf39f5d85e1 /etc/texmf/texmf.d/96JadeTeX.cnf -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages texlive-latex-extra depends on: ii dpkg 1.15.8.4 Debian package management system ii preview-latex-style 11.85-1 extraction of elements from LaTeX ii tex-common 2.08 common infrastructure for building ii texlive-binaries 2009-6 Binaries for TeX Live ii texlive-common 2009-10 TeX Live: Base component ii texlive-latex-base 2009-10 TeX Live: Basic LaTeX packages ii texlive-pictures 2009-10 TeX Live: Graphics packages and pr Versions of packages texlive-latex-extra recommends: ii texlive-latex-extra-doc 2009-9 TeX Live: Documentation files for ii texlive-latex-recommended 2009-10 TeX Live: LaTeX recommended packag ii texpower 0.2-7 Macros for creating professional p texlive-latex-extra suggests no packages.

Commenting out code in Perl I've done a lot. This is indeed the default behviour for comments. Consider for example this simeple document: \documentclass{article} \begin{document} There% are% not% many% spaces% in% this% paragraph. \end{document} You will see that even spaces at the beginning of the line are discarded. So you will either need a space *after* your text or a newline that is not masked by a comment. cheerio ralf
