I've heard that I can hook up a GPU to handle my matrix multiplications significantly faster. I want to do this locally, so I can make gifs faster. E.g., I have a lua-based animation, and it still takes ages to compile. I heard a GPU can do it orders of magnitude faster. That makes a 10 minute video compile in about 6 seconds, assuming as least two orders.

I noticed that I need to comment the line \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} to get a normal font or else it becomes "light". Since I believe that's not a normal behavior, what could be the reason for that?

Setup: In a big document with several chapters, i generate several tcolorbox instances per chapter of the same tcbtheorem called "method", with an option list inside={methods}. Needed: At the start of each chapter, i want to display -- with a call to \tcblistof -- a list of all methods within that chapter. Issue: With this default implementation, the first call to \tcblistof outputs a single list containing all "method" boxes from all the chapters, and any subsequent call to \tcblistof produces an empty list. Question: What is the simplest way to achieve this ? An idea could be to edit the value inside the list inside option to change depending on the chapter count, but i don't know how to do this or even if this is the cleanest solution.

I have a region on the plane bounded by two hyperbolas xy = +/- C. What is the best/simplest way to shade (not filled) the "star shaped" region enclosed by these two hyperbolas? Advanced version of this question: I have two rays in the first quadrant, starting from the origin. These two rays cut out a curved wedge in the star shaped region. How I can shade this wedge in a different color from the rest of the region? Here is a MWE for the star shaped region, plus the two rays: \documentclass{amsart} \usepackage{tikz} \begin{document} \begin{tikzpicture} \draw [thick, domain=0.5:3] plot (\x, { 1.2/\x)}); \draw [thick, domain=-3:-0.5] plot (\x, { 1.2/\x)}); \draw [thick, domain=0.5:3] plot (\x, {-1.2/\x)}); \draw [thick, domain=-3:-0.5] plot (\x, {-1.2/\x)}); \draw (-3.4,0) -- (3.4,0); \draw (0,-2.6) -- (0,2.6); \draw [thick] (0,0) -- (2.2,2.2); \draw [thick] (0,0) -- (3.1,1.5); \end{tikzpicture} \end{document} Thanks for your help! EDIT: I know how to fill a polygon using \draw [filled] (coord) -- (coord) -- etc but I don't know how to handle the parabolas.

I'd like to resume the enumeration from my defined exercise environment. However, the resume option of enumitem obviously only resumes the first level of the enumeration. Therefore, I tried to save and restore enumii, which unfortunately does not work this way. Is there any way to resume with the second level of the previous environment?

I have some Corporate True Type Fonts and use autoinst to convert them. However even though unicode characters uni0130 and uni0111 are there, after using the converted fonts I get the issue: glyph `Idotaccent' not found and glyph `dcroat' not found So I had a look and thought I need to provide unicoding commands to otftotfm, so I added extra commands to autoinst and the log files confirm that they are used: extra: --no-truetype --unicoding=Idot=:uni0130 --unicoding=dmacron=:uni0111` But no matter if I use Idotaccent or Idot or dmacron or dcroat, pdfLatex gives me the same output. What I don't get in the first place is, why I should provide such a command anyway. The font gives when I call otfinfo -g the glyphs Idotaccent and dcroat and of course contains unicode characters uni0130 as well as uni0111. If I am calling otfinfo -u I even get: uni0111 278 dcroat uni0130 101 Idotaccent What am I missing and what do I need to change? Reacting to cfrs questions: Minimal example \documentclass[]{minimal} \pdfmapfile{+MyOwnSansFont.map} \usepackage{MyOwnSansFont} \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} \begin{document} \sffamily \.Iletişim İletişim Character 157: \char157 I with dot \end{document} The MyOwnSansFont is the auto generated style file from autoinst. This then gets me this error message: pdfTeX warning: pdflatex.exe (file MyOwnSansFont.ttf): glyph Idotaccent' not found` So I want T1 encoding and also told autoinst so, hence also in the style file it is available and from what I understand T1 should have them: % 0x90 /Rcaron /Sacute /Scaron /Scedilla /Tcaron /Tcedilla /Udblacute /Uring /Ydieresis /Zacute /Zcaron /Zdot /IJ /Idot /dmacron /section Further finding Thank you for the questions and reactions so far, I think I came closer to a solution, but it is still strange. So I started to read and then I traced down the encoding file that comes out of otftotfm, copied it to my working directory and manually changed from: %90 /Rcaron /Sacute /Scaron /Scedilla /Tcaron /Tcommaaccent /Uhungarumlaut /Uring /Ydieresis /Zacute /Zcaron /Zdotaccent /IJ /Idotaccent /dcroat /section to %90 /Rcaron /Sacute /Scaron /Scedilla /Tcaron /Tcommaaccent /Uhungarumlaut /Uring /Ydieresis /Zacute /Zcaron /Zdotaccent /IJ /Idot /dmacron /section and everything works as it should. So for whatever reason even though the glyph names are reported to be available by the ttf and are also properly mapped, pdftex can only access them under the other name. What could be the reason for this and how can I fix this in the creation process?

If I don't specify lang in the metadata, I receive LaTeX DocumentMetadata Warning: The language has not been set in (DocumentMetadata) \DocumentMetadata. (DocumentMetadata) Setting it to 'en' as fallback. which I can avoid specifying lang=en. I a sense, I specify the language also in \documentclass as an option english. I also use babel package and I know this reads the option english. It feels like a duplicate so I would like to remove language specification from the document class. Is the metadata setting really a replacement? What about hyphenation? What about German language? In particular I wonder about the treatment of german vs ngerman. Can this be expressed in \DocumentMetadata??

I know, I shall add a minimal working example, and i am willing to do so, but could you give me a first hint? I compile a quite complicated document with lualatex, texlive 2025 After I verify on PDF/A 2b with verapdf.

I have a problem with the integral symbol. Previously, it was perfectly straight and now it's tilted, even though I haven't changed my code.

It is better but that's not exactlty what I had before: What I had before: Now with the upint option: As you can see, before it was less straight and more bold. I remember I recently updated the packages in Miktex. Maybe, it is the reason of the change? New Edit: In the stix-two package documentation, I see this: I think that is what I had before.

I'm trying to achieve something like this I tried \cancelto but it doesn't look good. Is there a library for these kind of "special cancellations"? Thank you all.

Well, I tried to understand your code or your code and I also consulted the tutorial indicated by cfr, and I admit that I don't understand anything and that it will take me a little time to master this language. Since you tell me that you have to ask the questions one by one, I would like to know how to retrieve the values of a line, for example the one obtained randomly, in nine respective variables varone, vartwo etc that I can then simply exploit in different calculations of the type (varone + vartwo) mod n or any other operation without having to continue in the same language? Because there, I have searched and I am unable to recover these values.

In the following code, the quotient $\pi/4$ is expressed as a continued fraction. There is only one modification that I would like to be made. The diagonal dots at the end of the continued fraction would look much better if they were typeset in alignment with the 2's. \documentclass{amsart} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{amsfonts} \begin{document} \begin{equation*} \frac{\pi}{4} = \cfrac{1}{\ 1 + \cfrac{1^{2}}{\ 2 + \cfrac{3^{2}}{\ 2 + \cfrac{\ 5^{2}}{\ 2 + \cfrac{7^{2}}{\ 2 + \vphantom{\dfrac{9^{2}}{2}}_{\ddots}}}}}} \ . \end{equation*} \end{document}

I have some eForms fields and I want some calculation in there. For example, when entering a number, double its value in another field. The problem is that the fields don't update automatically. To update a value, you have to click on the field you want to update. How can I make the update automatic? \documentclass{book} \usepackage {eforms} \begin{document} \textField[\W1\BC{0 0 0}]{uni}{2cm}{12bp} \textField[\W1\BC{0 0 0}\A{\JS{% let f = this.getField("uni"); let e = this.getField("aaa"); e.value = 2 * f.value; }}]{aaa}{7cm}{12bp} \end{document}

I created a matrix by this code \documentclass{article} \usepackage{amsmath} \begin{document} \[ A_{n+1}= \begin{pmatrix} a & \begin{tabular}{ccccc} 0 & 0 & \ldots & 0 & 0 \\ \end{tabular} & 1\\ \begin{tabular}{c} 0\\ \vdots\\ \end{tabular} & A_n & \begin{tabular}{c} 0\\ \vdots \end{tabular} \\ 1 & \begin{tabular}{ccccc} 0 & 0 & \ldots & 0 & 0 \\ \end{tabular} & a\\ \end{pmatrix} \] \end{document} But I don't like the result because the margin between the "a" and the first "0" in the first line is too large. I guess it's due to the tabular environment. Anyway to improve it?

Another arrow is passing through the purple shape, which is something I do not like. The arrow must be split. I have attached the output for reference. Edit Problem number 1 can be ignored. On problem 2, I have replaced the line \draw[line] (inputs_data) -| (spatial); with \begin{scope}[on background layer] \draw[-latex, line] (inputs_data) -| (spatial); \end{scope}. The remaining issue is as follows: The line will split as desired. However, the line will move from the right parallelogram to the outer dotted rectangle but the tip of the arrow (>) disappears. The arrow (->) should touch the inner solid rectangle. See the updated output.

Hello I made a test file in xelatex to extract numbers from an excell file, but despite two days of effort I couldn't fix the bugs. Bug: For several orders, the last value of the extracted rows only shows the number of tens. Several other bugs must come from this first bug... I specify that I would actually like to work on a file of more than 500 lines and that the nine lines of data in my file were only for a test. I also want a command that looks for the lines where the X and Y values are simultaneously and that convert them to an usable integer. I thank in advance all those who would like to look into these problems Xelatex file : \documentclass{article} \usepackage{pgffor} \usepackage{fontspec} \usepackage{xstring} % Built-in test data (9x9) \def\mydata{ {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}, {10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18}, {19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27}, {28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36}, {37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45}, {46,47,48,49,50,51,52,53,54}, {55,56,57,58,59,60,61,62,63}, {64,65,66,67,68,69,70,71,72}, {73,74,75,76,77,78,79,80,81} } \newcounter{totalrows} \newcounter{currentindex} \newcounter{foundindex} \newcounter{startline} \newcounter{numlines} % Initialize variables \newcommand{\varone}{} \newcommand{\vartwo}{} \newcommand{\varthree}{} \newcommand{\varfour}{} \newcommand{\varfive}{} \newcommand{\varsix}{} \newcommand{\varseven}{} \newcommand{\vareight}{} \newcommand{\varnine}{} % Command to convert to number \newcommand{\ConvNb}[1]{\number\numexpr#1\relax} % Show lines from i to i+n \newcommand{\showlines}[2]{% \setcounter{startline}{#1}% \setcounter{numlines}{#2}% \setcounter{currentindex}{0}% \foreach \line in \mydata {% \stepcounter{currentindex}% \ifnum\value{currentindex}<\value{startline}\else \ifnum\value{currentindex}>\numexpr\value{startline}+\value{numlines}-1\relax \breakforeach \else \noindent Ligne \thecurrentindex: \expandafter\processlinedata\line\par \fi \fi }% } \def\processlinedata#1,#2,#3,#4,#5,#6,#7,#8,#9{% \ConvNb{#1} \ConvNb{#2} \ConvNb{#3} \ConvNb{#4} \ConvNb{#5} \ConvNb{#6} \ConvNb{#7} \ConvNb{#8} \ConvNb{#9}% } % Find line with x \newcommand{\findlinewithx}[1]{% \setcounter{foundindex}{0}% \setcounter{currentindex}{0}% \foreach \line in \mydata {% \stepcounter{currentindex}% \foreach \val in \line {% \ifnum\val=#1\relax% \setcounter{foundindex}{\thecurrentindex}% \expandafter\storevariables\line% \breakforeach% \fi% }% \ifnum\value{foundindex}>0\breakforeach\fi% }% \ifnum\value{foundindex}>0% Line \thefoundindex\ found with #1% \else% No lines found with #1% \fi% } %% % Displays all rows containing the number x but BUG if x not found or if all rows \newcommand{\findallwithx}[1]{% \setcounter{currentindex}{0}% \foreach \line in \mydata {% \stepcounter{currentindex}% \foreach \val in \line {% \ifnum\val=#1\relax% \noindent Ligne \thecurrentindex\ contient #1: \expandafter\processlinedata\line\par% \breakforeach% \fi% }% }% } %% % Random Line Extract \newcommand{\randomline}{% \pgfmathsetmacro{\r}{int(random(0,8))}% \setcounter{currentindex}{0}% \foreach \line in \mydata {% \ifnum\value{currentindex}=\r% \expandafter\storevariables\line% Random line \the\numexpr\r+1\relax% \breakforeach% \fi% \stepcounter{currentindex}% }% } %%%%%%%%%%%%%% % Find a random line containing x AND y \newcommand{\findrandomwithxy}[2]{% \def\xfound{0}% \def\yfound{0}% \pgfmathsetmacro{\r}{int(random(0,8))}% \setcounter{currentindex}{0}% \foreach \line in \mydata {% \stepcounter{currentindex}% \ifnum\value{currentindex}=\r% \foreach \val in \line {% \ifnum\val=#1\relax\def\xfound{1}\fi% \ifnum\val=#2\relax\def\yfound{1}\fi% }% \ifnum\xfound=1\relax% \ifnum\yfound=1\relax% \expandafter\storevariables\line% Random line \the\numexpr\r+1\relax\ containing #1 AND #2: \expandafter\processlinedata\line\par% \breakforeach% \else% % Relaunch the search if not y \findrandomwithxy{#1}{#2}% \fi% \else% % Relaunch the search if not x \findrandomwithxy{#1}{#2}% \fi% \fi% }% } %%%%% % 1.
