Hello all,

This is to inform you all about a newly released LaTeX package named tipauni.
Linguistics-community has for a long time used package TIPA for producing IPA
characters in the PDF documents, but in today's Unicode world; these documents
aren't much of a use. One can't search for some IPA text in the file, the
author can't change the font of the document and most importantly; the text
can't be copied from the PDF. For all of this what you really need is the
Unicode encoding. Linguists who have used package TIPA shouldn't worry about
their codes in the old TIPA encoding as the newly released package tipauni now
internally converts the TIPA commands into Unicode. Users just have to change
three letters in the preamble of their documents. i.e.

\usepackage{tipauni}
instead of
\usepackage{tipa}

The output will have IPA characters in Unicode encoding.

This is a free software released under GPLv3.

Here are some links for the package -
