Biber is a BibTeX replacement for users of BibLaTeX. It supports full UTF-8, can (re)-encode input and output, supports highly configurable sorting, dynamic bibliography sets and many other features.

The package allows the user to access a symbol without loading the package that usually provides it; this has the advantage of avoiding the name clashes that so commonly trouble those who load symbol-packages.

Pages of a document processed with the booklet package will be reordered and scaled so that they can be printed as four pages per physical sheet of paper, two pages per side. The resulting sheets will, when folded in half, assemble into a booklet.

The main goal of this package is to offer additional database fields and formats for the genealogytree package, particularly for typesetting large trees.

The package provides a kana parser for LuaTeX. It is a set of four macros that handle transliteration of text: from hiragana and katakana to Latin from Latin and katakana to hiragana from Latin and hiragana to katakana It can be used to write kana directly using only the ASCII character set or for education purposes. The package has support for obsolete and rarely used syllables, some only accessible via the provided toggle macro.

Xtab is an extended and somewhat improved version of supertabular; its xtabular environment provides tables that break across pages.

This package provides Occitan language description file for Babel, with usage instructions.

These packages are either mandated by the core LaTeX team, or very widely used and strongly recommended in practice.

This package provides a family of sans serif fonts for TeX and LaTeX, based on Donald Knuth's CM fonts. It comprises OT1, T1 and TS1 encoded text fonts of various shapes as well as all the fonts necessary for mathematical typesetting, including AMS symbols. This collection provides all the necessary files for using the fonts with LaTeX.

The package is an extension of the standard graphics bundle and provides a way to include repeated PostScript graphics (PS, EPS) only once in a PostScript document. This leads to smaller PostScript documents when having, for instance, a logo on every page. The package only works when post-processed with Dvips.

For several reasons a \caption may be desirable at the top of a table environment. This package changes the table environment such that \abovecaptionskip and \belowcaptionskip are swapped. The package should also work with a non-standard table environment.

The jmlr bundle provides a class for authors (jmlr) and a class for production editors (jmlrbook) for the Journal of Machine Learning Research. The jmlrbook class can be used to combine articles written using the jmlr class into a book.

This package provides a set of macros for resumes.

The (Sherlock Holmes) book contains a code which uses dancing men as glyphs. The alphabet as given is not complete, lacking f, j, k, q, u, w, x and z, so those letters in the font are not due to Conan Doyle.

The code required word endings to be marked by the dancing man representing the last letter to be holding a flag: these are coded as A-Z. In some cases, the man has no arms, making it impossible for him to hold a flag. In these cases, he is wearing a flag on his hat in the character. The font is distributed as Metafont source.

This package allows you to input Thai characters directly to LaTeX documents and choose any (system wide) Thai fonts for typesetting in XeLaTeX. It also tries to appropriately justify paragraphs with no more external tools.

This LaTeX package provides commands \drawnimstick to draw a single nim stick and \nimgame which represents games of multi-pile Nim. Nim sticks are drawn with a little random wobble so they look thrown together and not too regular. The package also provides options to customise the size and colour of the sticks, and flexibility to draw heaps of different objects.

dvipos parses a DVI file looking for pos: specials. It then outputs the information from those specials along with information that only a DVI postprocessor could determine, such as the current x and y location.

This package attempts to make it easy for even a LaTeX novice to prepare proficiency tests, especially in combination with the exam document class. Thus, almost all command names are very similar. After defining skills in the preamble or in an external file, they are declared using labels, and can optionally be set as global skills. A skills table is generated to summarize the evaluated competencies and to allow for writing down the resulting proficiency level.

This package simplifies the calling of dimensionless numbers in math or text mode.

The package runs with pdfTeX or XeTeX, and creates an auxiliary file with geometrical information to permit references back and forth between source and PDF, assuming a conforming editor and PDF viewer.

The package provides commands for adding formatted index entries.

The package is a specially designed to meet the publication of books and the production of LaTeX templates, with elegant chapter styles and unique page styles.

The package provides support, within Babel, of the Turkish language.

LyX is a document preparation system. It excels at letting you create complex technical and scientific articles with mathematics, cross-references, bibliographies, indexes, etc. It is very good for working with documents of any length in which the usual processing abilities are required: automatic sectioning and pagination, spell checking and so forth.
