The package changes some typographical points of the ClassicThesis style. It enables the user to reproduce the look of the guide The art of writing with LaTeX (the web page is in Italian).

The process of preparing a collaborative proposal, to a major funding body, involves integration of contributions of a many people at many sites. It is therefore an ideal application for a text-based document preparation system such as LaTeX, in concert with a distributed version control system such as SVN. The proposal class itself provides a basis for such an enterprise. The dfgproposal and dfgproposal classes provide two specialisations of the base class for (respectively) German and European research proposals.

This package provides a LaTeX class for typesetting books with a colorful design. Currently, it has native support for Chinese (both simplified and traditional), English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese (European and Brazilian), Russian and Spanish typesetting. It compiles with either XeLaTeX or LuaLaTeX. This is part of the colorist class series and depends on colorist.sty from the colorist package. The package name "beaulivre" is taken from the French words "beau" (= "beautiful") and "livre" (= "book").

The fonts extend the Utopia set with Cyrillic glyphs, additional figure styles, ligatures and Small Caps in Regular style only. Macro support, and maths fonts that match the Utopia family, are provided by the Fourier and the Mathdesign font packages.

The package suppresses fi and fl (and other ligatures) in Serbian text written using Roman script.

The package provides the language definition file for support of Slovenian in Babel. Several shortcuts are defined, as well as translations to Slovenian of standard LaTeX names.

The bundle contains fonts (TFM and VF) for use with upTeX.

The system employs scripts, common utility programs, and a set of MetaPost macros to provide a means of expressing the details outline fonts directly in the MetaPost language. The system was employed to generate the Latin Modern fonts, and the distribution includes an example development of Knuth's logo fonts.

This package provides key-value style author and affiliation information tagging in a structured format. Each field has a specific name within \author and \affil commands similar to BibTeX format, and can be customized individually.

This package provides the binaries for texlive-hitex.

This package draws horizontal and vertical rulers on the foreground of every (or the current) page at absolute positions. In this way, you can check the page layout dimensions. You can also draw various rulers in the text.

This package defines macros \includeversion{NAME} and \excludeversion{NAME}, each of which defines an environment NAME whose text is to be included or excluded from compilation.

Although the command syntax is very similar to that of comment, comment.sty is to be preferred to version.sty for documents where significant chunks of text may be excluded.

This document is meant for users who are looking for information about the basics of TeX. Its main goal is its brevity. The pure TeX features are described, no features provided by macro extensions. Only the last section gives a summary of plain TeX macros.

The schulmathematik bundle provides two LaTeX packages and six document classes for German-speaking teachers of mathematics and physics.

This package provides macros to typeset bra-ket notation, as well as set specifiers, with a single (|) or a double (|| or \|) vertical bar specifier in between two bracketed parts. Each macro comes in a fixed-size version and an expanding version.

This package reworks the mathematical calligraphic font ESSTIX13, adding a bold version. LaTeX support files are included.

The package (which requires e-TeX) provides a natural way to define commands with optional keys. The package provides \newkeycommand, \renewkeycommand, \providekeycommand, \newkeyenvironment and \renewkeyenvironment, together with \keycmd for a more advanced interface.

The package provides a XeLaTeX template for writing the main body of NSFC proposals, which are allowed to apply online. The package defines styles of the outlines and uses BibLaTeX and Biber for the management of references.

This package allows git change log history to be incorporated into LaTeX documents; the log data is obtained from the Git distributed version control system.

TeXsis is a TeX macro package which provides useful features for typesetting research papers and related documents. For example, it includes support specifically for:

• automatic numbering of equations, figures, tables and references;

• simplified control of type sizes, line spacing, footnotes, running headlines and footlines, and tables of contents, figures and tables;

• specialized document formats for research papers, preprints and e-prints, conference proceedings, theses, books, referee reports, letters, and memoranda;

• simplified means of constructing an index for a book or thesis;

• easy to use double column formatting;

• specialized environments for lists, theorems and proofs, centered or non-justified text, and listing computer code;

• specialized macros for easily constructing ruled tables.

TeXsis was originally developed for physicists, but others may also find it useful. It is completely compatible with Plain TeX.

The octavo class is a modification of the standard LaTeX book class. Its purpose is to typeset books following classical design and layout principles, with the express intention of encouraging the making of beautiful books by anyone with access to a good printer and with an inclination towards venerable crafts, e.g., bookbinding. The octavo class differs from the book class by implementing many of the proposals and insights of respected experts, especially Jan Tschichold and Hugh Williamson. The documentation discusses methods to organise and print out any text into signatures, which can then be gathered, folded and sewn into a book.

This package was previously used to provide a number of features that were useful for typesetting documents with XeLaTeX. Many of those features have now been incorporated into the fontspec package and other packages, but the package persists for backwards compatibility. Nowadays, loading xltxtra will: load the fontspec, metalogo, and realscripts packages; redefine \showhyphens so it works correctly; and define two extra commands: \vfrac and \namedglyph.

Sometimes the same footnote applies to more than one location in a table. With this package the mark of a footnote can be saved into a name, and re-used subsequently without creating another footnote at the bottom.

TeXshade is alignment shading software completely written in TeX/LaTeX; it can process multiple sequence alignments in the .msf and the .aln file formats. In addition to common shading algorithms, it provides special shading modes showing functional aspects, e.g., charge or hydropathy, and a wide range of commands for handling shading colours, text styles, labels, legends; it even allows the user to define completely new shading modes.
