Russian Orthodox Prayer Book

A Russian Orthodox prayer book based on the Jordanville edition. It's only a Brazilian portuguese translation, for now, (Don't even know why I'm writing this in English.) but it could well be a repository for multiple languages if happen to have enough engagement. That way, it's possible to reutilize common utilities for formatting etc.

Images were obtained from the Orthodox Arts Journal project. Since the repository's license allows for commercial usage, be aware that the due credit should be given to the images.

Building the project locally

To build a project locally, the following dependencies are needed:

• XeTeX: TeX's extension used;
• Inkscape: For rendering SVG into images compatible with TeX;
• Python: For running the script which installs the required fonts;
• GNU Make: For building the document.

To build the document:

# Installs required fonts
./scripts/install-font.sh "Gentium Book Plus" "EB Garamond"
# Builds the document
make

If you have any doubts on minimal dependencies, take a look at the build workflow for an example of a setup from scratch.
