    Summary description: Typeset Japanese with Lua(La)TeX

    Announcement text: ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    * Changed the baseline alignment of \pbox when
    - outside \pbox is tate direction and \pbox is utod direction (<u>, <z>)
    - outside \pbox is utod direction and \pbox is tate direction (<t>)

    * luatexja-fontspec: avoid unnecessary warning (forum:4038)

    * ltj-latex.sty: added a patch for luamml-patches-amsmath (gh/46)

    * lltjfont.sty: fix that "\bfseries\gtfamily" did not work (forum:4041)

    * lltjcore.sty: fix patching \verb (gh/#49)

    * Enhancement: \jfont and \tfont now accept "down=<real>" and "left=<real>"
    specitication, which shift characters without changing the imaginary body
    specified in JFM.
    These can be used by "Down=<real>" and "Left=<real>" in luatexja-fotnspec.
