TeX Fonts extending freely available URW fonts
The TeX-GYRE bundle consists of six font families: TeX Gyre Adventor is based on the URW Gothic L family of fonts (which is derived from ITC Avant Garde Gothic, designed by Herb Lubalin and Tom Carnase). TeX Gyre Bonum is based on the URW Bookman L family (from Bookman Old Style, designed by Alexander Phemister). TeX Gyre Chorus is based on URW Chancery L Medium Italic (from ITC Zapf Chancery, designed by Hermann Zapf in 1979). TeX-Gyre Cursor is based on URW Nimbus Mono L (based on Courier, designed by Howard G. Kettler in 1955, for IBM). TeX Gyre Heros is based on URW Nimbus Sans L (from Helvetica, prepared by Max Miedinger, with Eduard Hoffmann in 1957). TeX Gyre Pagella is based on URW Palladio L (from Palatino, designed by Hermann Zapf in the 1940s). TeX Gyre Schola is based on the URW Century Schoolbook L family (which was designed by Morris Fuller Benton for the American Type Founders). TeX Gyre Termes is based on the URW Nimbus Roman No9 L family of fonts (whose original, Times, was designed by Stanley Morison together with Starling Burgess and Victor Lardent and first offered by Monotype). The constituent standard faces of each family have been greatly extended, and contain nearly 1100 glyphs each (though Chorus omits Greek support, has no small-caps family and has approximately 800 glyphs). Each family is available in Adobe Type 1 and Open Type formats, and LaTeX support (for use with a variety of encodings) is provided. Vietnamese characters were added by Han The Thanh.
A collection of (variously) simple tools provided as part of the LaTeX required tools distribution, comprising the packages: afterpage, array, bm, calc, dcolumn, delarray, enumerate, fileerr, fontsmpl, ftnright, hhline, indentfirst, layout, longtable, multicol, rawfonts, showkeys, somedefs, tabularx, theorem, trace, varioref, verbatim, xr, and xspace.
A bundle of versatile classes and packages
The KOMA-Script bundle provides replacements for the article, report, and book classes with emphasis on typography and versatility. There is also a letter class. The bundle also offers: a package for calculating type areas in the way laid down by the typographer Jan Tschichold, a package for easily changing and defining page styles, a package scrdate for getting not only the current date but also the name of the day, and a package scrtime for getting the current time. All these packages may be used not only with KOMA-Script classes but also with the standard classes. Since every package has its own version number, the version number quoted only refers to the version of scrbook, scrreprt, scrartcl, scrlttr2 and typearea (which are the main parts of the bundle).
Change format of \today with commands for current time
Provides various different formats for the text created by the command \today, and also provides commands for displaying the current time (or any given time), in 12-hour, 24-hour or text format. The package overrides babel's date format, having its own library of date formats in different languages. The package requires the fmtcount package. This package is now obsolete and has been replaced by datetime2.
Produces figures which text can flow around
Allows figures or tables to have text wrapped around them. Does not work in combination with list environments, but can be used in a parbox or minipage, and in twocolumn format. Supports the float package.
A collection of small packages by Walter Schmidt
A bundle of packages that arise in the author's area of interest: compliance of maths typesetting with ISO standards; symbols that work in both maths and text modes commas for both decimal separator and maths; and upright Greek letters in maths.
Flexible and complete interface to document dimensions
The package provides an easy and flexible user interface to customize page layout, implementing auto-centering and auto- balancing mechanisms so that the users have only to give the least description for the page layout. For example, if you want to set each margin 2cm without header space, what you need is just \usepackage[margin=2cm,nohead]{geometry}. The package knows about all the standard paper sizes, so that the user need not know what the nominal 'real' dimensions of the paper are, just its standard name (such as a4, letter, etc.). An important feature is the package's ability to communicate the paper size it's set up to the output (whether via DVI \specials or via direct interaction with PDF(La)TeX).
The bundle holds prototype implementations of concepts for a LaTeX designer interface, to be used with the experimental LaTeX kernel as programming tools and kernel support. Packages provided in this release are: l3keys2e, which makes the facilities of the kernel module l3keys available for use by LaTeX 2e packages; xfrac, which provides flexible split-level fractions; xparse, which provides a high-level interface for declaring document commands; and xtemplate, which provides a means of defining generic functions using a key-value syntax. All the files of the bundle are also available in the Subversion (SVN) repository of the LaTeX3 Project. The bundle on CTAN is based on a snapshot of the SVN repository; it should be used with copies of the l3kernel at SVN version 6001 or later.
There are macro and environment arguments that expect numbers that will internally be multiplied by \unitlength. This package extends the syntax of these arguments, so that dimensions with calculation support may be used for these arguments.
Layout with zero \parindent, non-zero \parskip
Simply changing \parskip and \parindent leaves a layout that is untidy; this package (though it is no substitute for a properly- designed class) helps alleviate this untidiness
A new interface for environments in LaTeX
The package provides the \collect@body command (as in amsmath), as well as a \long version \Collect@Body, for collecting the body text of an environment. These commands are used to define a new author interface to creating new environments. For example: \NewEnviron{test} wraps the entire environment body in square brackets, doing the right thing in ignoring leading and trailing spaces.
Path searching library for TeX-related files
Kpathsea is a library and utility programs which provide path searching facilities for TeX file types, including the self- locating feature required for movable installations, layered on top of a general search mechanism.
Coloured boxes, for LaTeX examples and theorems, etc
The package provides an environment for coloured and framed text boxes with a heading line. Optionally, such a box may be split in an upper and a lower part; thus the package may be used for the setting of LaTeX examples where one part of the box displays the source code and the other part shows the output. Another common use case is the setting of theorems. The package supports saving and reuse of source code and text parts.
LaTeX is a widely-used macro package for TeX, providing many basic document formating commands extended by a wide range of packages. It is a development of Leslie Lamport's LaTeX 2.09, and superseded the older system in June 1994. The basic distribution is catalogued separately, at latex-base; apart from a large set of contributed packages and third-party documentation (elsewhere on the archive), the distribution includes: - a bunch of required packages, which LaTeX authors are "entitled to assume" will be present on any system running LaTeX; and - a minimal set of documentation detailing differences from the 'old' version of LaTeX in the areas of user commands, font selection and control, class and package writing, font encodings, configuration options and modification of LaTeX.
Add picture commands (or backgrounds) to every page
The package adds one or more user commands to LaTeX's shipout routine, which may be used to place the output at fixed positions. The grid option may be used to find the correct places.
Create PostScript and PDF graphics in TeX
PGF is a macro package for creating graphics. It is platform- and format-independent and works together with the most important TeX backend drivers, including pdfTeX and dvips. It comes with a user-friendly syntax layer called TikZ. Its usage is similar to pstricks and the standard picture environment. PGF works with plain (pdf-)TeX, (pdf-)LaTeX, and ConTeXt. Unlike pstricks, it can produce either PostScript or PDF output.
Development pre-release of the LaTeX kernel
This package provides a testing release for upcoming LaTeX2e kernel changes. Testing by the LaTeX team itself suggests that the code is stable and usable, but wider use by knowledgeable users is required by adding these changes to the release LaTeX kernel. Typically, the code here will be used by a TeX system to create dedicated formats, for example pdflatex-dev, which can then be used explicitly for testing.
Various LaTeX packages by Martin Schroder
A bundle of LaTeX packages by Martin Schroder; the collection comprises: count1to, make use of fixed TeX counters; everysel, set commands to execute every time a font is selected; everyshi, set commands to execute whenever a page is shipped out; multitoc, typeset the table of contents in multiple columns; prelim2e, mark typeset pages as preliminary; and ragged2e, typeset ragged text and allow hyphenation.
The package provides the principal packages in the AMS-LaTeX distribution. It adapts for use in LaTeX most of the mathematical features found in AMS-TeX; it is highly recommendsd as an adjunct to serious mathematical typesetting in LaTeX. When amsmath is loaded, AMS-LaTeX packages amsbsy (for bold symbols), amsopn (for operator names) and amstext (for text embdedded in mathematics) are also loaded. Amsmath is part of the LaTeX required distribution; however, several contributed packages add still further to its appeal; examples are empheq, which provides functions for decorating and highlighting mathematics, and ntheorem, for specifying theorem (and similar) definitions.
The package was designed to accommodate all needs for inclusion of graphics in LaTeX documents, replacing many earlier packages used in LaTeX 2.09. The package aims to give a consistent interface to including the file types that are understood in your output, by use of 'printer drivers' (now known, simply, as 'drivers'). The distribtion of the package contains several drivers, but others (for example, pdfTeX) are distributed separately. The package also offers several means of manipulating graphics in the course of inserting them into a document (for example, rotation and scaling). For extended documentation see epslatex. The package is part of the graphics bundle, which is one of the collections in the LaTeX 'required' set of packages.
The TeX Live software distribution offers a complete TeX system for a variety of Unix, Macintosh, Windows and other platforms. It encompasses programs for editing, typesetting, previewing and printing of TeX documents in many different languages, and a large collection of TeX macros and font libraries. The distribution includes extensive general documentation about TeX, as well as the documentation for the included software packages.
The package allows the to user select any font size (via e.g. \fontsize{...}{...}\selectfont), even those sizes that are not listed in the .fd file. If such a size is requested, LaTeX will search for and select the nearest listed size; anyfontsize will then scale the font to the size actually requested. Similar functionality is available for the CM family, for the EC family, or for either computer modern encoding; the present package generalises the facility.
The package is provided as a bundle with the nicefrac package for typing fractions. Units uses nicefrac in typesetting physical units in a standard-looking sort of way.
Extensive control of page headers and footers in LaTeX2e
The package provides extensive facilities, both for constructing headers and footers, and for controlling their use (for example, at times when LaTeX would automatically change the heading style in use).
Driver-independent color extensions for LaTeX and pdfLaTeX
The package starts from the basic facilities of the color package, and provides easy driver-independent access to several kinds of color tints, shades, tones, and mixes of arbitrary colors. It allows a user to select a document-wide target color model and offers complete tools for conversion between eight color models. Additionally, there is a command for alternating row colors plus repeated non-aligned material (like horizontal lines) in tables. Colors can be mixed like \color{red!30!green!40!blue}.
Provides control over the typography of the Table of Contents, List of Figures and List of Tables, and the ability to create new 'List of ...'. The ToC \parskip may be changed.
Typeset 5.5" x 8" recipes for browsing or printing
This is a LaTeX2e class for typesetting recipes. It is designed for typesetting one or two recipes per page, with dimensions of 5.5" x 8.5". The hyperlinked table of contents (ToC) and page numbers make browsing recipes convenient, and the pages can be joined together or printed two per sheet to normal letterpaper easily. The size was chosen to work in half-page 3-ring binder cover sheets.
Development pre-release of the LaTeX graphics bundle
This is a pre-release version of the standard LaTeX graphics bundle. It accompanies the pre-testing kernel code (latex-base-dev), and is intended for testing by knowledgeable users.
The package enhances the quality of tables in LaTeX, providing extra commands as well as behind-the-scenes optimisation. Guidelines are given as to what constitutes a good table in this context. From version 1.61, the package offers longtable compatibility.
Extensive support for hypertext in LaTeX
The hyperref package is used to handle cross-referencing commands in LaTeX to produce hypertext links in the document. The package provides backends for the \special set defined for HyperTeX DVI processors; for embedded pdfmark commands for processing by Acrobat Distiller (dvips and Y&Y's dvipsone); for Y&Y's dviwindo; for PDF control within pdfTeX and dvipdfm; for TeX4ht; and for VTeX's pdf and HTML backends. The package is distributed with the backref and nameref packages, which make use of the facilities of hyperref. The package depends on the author's kvoptions, ltxcmdsand refcount packages.
Create tabular cells spanning multiple rows
The package has a lot of flexibility, including an option for specifying an entry at the "natural" width of its text. The package is distributed with the bigdelim and bigstrut packages, which can be used to advantage with \multirow cells.
Alternative versions of "ragged"-type commands
The package defines new commands \Centering, \RaggedLeft, and \RaggedRight and new environments Center, FlushLeft, and FlushRight, which set ragged text and are easily configurable to allow hyphenation (the corresponding commands in LaTeX, all of whose names are lower-case, prevent hyphenation altogether).
