XELATEX and Greek, by Apostolos Syropoulos The relationship of

TEX with the Greek language started about 25 years ago, with the first
Greek fonts created by Sylvio Levy. Since then, this relationship has
continued with various packages, the greek option of babel, Beccaris
fonts, etc., to todays xgreek package for XELATEX. XELATEX offers unique
conveniences such as the use of OpenType fonts, automatic change of
languages and hyphenation rules, etc. All these advantages of XELATEX
for the typesetting of Greek are presented briefly in this paper.
