% [christianne-key+debbie-box.tex] % Christianne, one of the triplets next, door was going on class trip % to a Cree community in northern Alberta. She provided % me with a class list and I made up name tags with the names in % Cree syllabics. % in order to do so I created my own TeX definitions for the Unicode % syllabics symbols. For example: % \def\ki{\char"146D} % All these defintions were placed in the special mac file [ christianne-debbie.mac] % This mac file also contained the oskibold font at various nominal font sizes, e.g. % \font\creeBBBBBB = [/home/liliane/ROGER/MY-FONTS/oskiwbold.ttf] at 75pt % On the TeX form I added to the list of mac files: \input christianne-debbie.mac % special % I then made wooden key chains for her and her mother with their names, % both in Cree and Latin letters, burned into the wood. Since I was not sure % of the size I defined various font sizes and printed them out. % The following is the TeX file without the regular heading \input christianne-debbie.mac % special % % %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% TEXT STARTS % %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % {\rm % #4 \nin {\bfeighteen Christianne in Cree syllabics % \vskip 20truept\nin % % The Rdot put in > above kis\TH tse\TH an\TH ne % % \vskip 25truept\nin % 50pt {\creeB \ki\sf\TH \tse\TH \a\nf\TH \ne} % % \vskip 25truept\nin % 55pt {\creeBB \ki\sf\TH \tse\TH \a\nf\TH \ne} % \vskip 25truept\nin % 60pt {\creeBBB \ki\sf\TH \tse\TH \a\nf\TH \ne} % \vskip 25truept\nin % 65pt {\creeBBBB \ki\sf\TH \tse\TH \a\nf\TH \ne} % \vskip 25truept\nin % 75pt {\creeBBBBB \ki\sf\TH \tse\TH \a\nf\TH \ne} % \vskip 25truept\nin % 80pt {\creeBBBBBB \ki\sf\TH \tse\TH \a\nf\TH \ne} % \vfill\eject % \nin Deborah in Chipewyan (Athabaskan language) which is richer in consonants.
