There seems to be no official site for the essay itself. However, digital packrats have filed away a table of contents for the issue of Electronic Publishing in which the essay was published, as well as a PDF of the essay itself. Jslabovitz 15:20, 29 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

pdfTeX and "Little is known"

[edit]
Little is known about the composition algorithm created by Zapf and implemented in Hz-program; [...] According to Zapf,[1] Hàn Thế Thành made a detailed analysis of the Hz-program for microtypography extensions to the TeX typesetting system and implemented them in pdfTeX. These are available as part of the LaTeX and ConTeXt typesetting packages.

Could someone more familiar with this elaborate on how it is that "Little is known about the composition algorithm" if Thành made a "detailed analysis" of it for his doctoral dissertation?
