I would like to test Microtype 2.5 (b08) with Lualatex.

I've seen here that TLContrib has been cited as a way to get and install this version, but I only found solutions to use it as a repository with Tex Live (OK, the name itself tells it already). Is there any way to do it with Miktex ? Or have I to do some texmflocal trick or even to use Tex Live instead?

    The current version of microtype is 2.5a and should be included in the current MiKTeX; the beta version you're mentioning is outdated. I added a comment to the linked question. – egreg Mar 05 '15 at 11:49

    Version 2.5a is listed as current for MiKTeX at http://miktex.org/packages/microtype – egreg Mar 05 '15 at 12:00
  • Ok, thanks; I've been confused by the a/alpha – b/beta, and I did not thought that 2.5a could be newer than 2.5 b(eta). – KO the typo Mar 05 '15 at 12:24

The current version of microtype is 2.5a (released 2013/05/23) and this is the version available both with TeX Live 2014 and MiKTeX 2.9 (see http://miktex.org/packages/microtype).

The numbering system might be confusing, but 2.5a is a maintenance release after 2.5, which supersedes 2.5beta.
