The package provides:
capital letters in roman (upright shape) in mathematical mode according to French rule (can be optionally disabled),
optionally lowercase Greek letters in upright shape,
correct spacing in math mode after commas, before a semicolon and around square brackets,
some useful macros and aliases for symbols used in France such as
\infeg,\supeg,\paral,several macros for writing french operator names like pgcd, ppcm, Card, rg, Vect.
This traditional Chinese 7-bids abacus drawing package utilizes l3draw and is developed with expl3. It can effectively manage both upper and lower bids, while also considering bottom bid, top bid, and hanging bid. The package offers a unique environment for drawing abacuses, denoted as suanpan. Within this environment, specialized macros are available for the creation of abacuses. At the same time, the package offers customization options for abacus, including line width, draw color, fill color, bid space, rod space, etc.
This package allows you to check whether a string is contained within another set of strings, and perform an action if it is not. This is done by using the allfalse environment and passing in a string and an action to be performed if the string is not contained in the set. Then, passing in a string to the \orcheck macro inside the respective allfalse environment adds that to the set of strings. This package does not work with the LuaTeX engine.
The package offers a collection of useful macros for disciplines related to signal processing. It defines macros for plotting a sequence of numbers, drawing the pole-zero diagram of a system, shading the region of convergence, creating an adder or a multiplier node, placing a framed node at a given coordinate, creating an up-sampler or a down-sampler node, drawing the block diagram of a system, drawing adaptive systems, sequentially connecting a list of nodes, and connecting a list of nodes using any node-connecting macro.
Heiko Oberdiek's makerobust package defined a command with name \MakeRobustCommand that could be used to make fragile commands robust. The LaTeX format has, since 2015, included a command \MakeRobust with the same syntax and behaviour. Also by 2019, almost all commands in LaTeX that may be used in a moving argument are already robust. This package is now just a simple one-liner defining the name \MakeRobustCommand as an alias for \MakeRobust. This package should not be used in any new documents.
This package (ab)uses the inline enumeration capabilities of enumitem to add a displayed enumeration mode, triggered by adding gathered to the key-value option list of the enumerate environment. The end result is similar to a regular enumerate environment wrapped in a multicols environment, with the following advantages:
it can pack items depending on their actual width rather than a fixed, constant number per line;
it fills items in a line-major order (instead of column-major order).
The package provides macros for typesetting math formulas in mixed horizontal and vertical mode, automatically as best fit. It provides an environment mathpar that behaves much as a loose centered paragraph where words are math formulas, and spaces between them are larger and adjustable. It also provides a macro \inferrule for typesetting fractions where both the numerator and denominator may be sequences of formulas that will be also typeset in a similar way. It can typically be used for typeseting sets of type inference rules or typing derivations.
The pagelayout class enables you to layout pages declaratively using simple macros for pages, covers, grids, templates, text, and graphics to create graphic rich, perfectly typeset, and print ready PDFs. The integration of Inkscape allows your to create box shadows. The integration of ImageMagick allows you to configure compression and sharpening for bitmap graphics to export web, print or preview versions of your document. Parallelized image optimization, caching, and a draft mode enable fast PDF creation and a responsive workflow, even for large documents with lots of photos and graphics.
This package improves the display of QU (Quick Response) codes provided by qrcode. The QR codes provided by package qrcode show white borders on each square (from little to very prominent, depending on the PDF viewer). This is because the QR code is printed square by square, not the connected regions of squares as such, and PDF screen viewers show these undesired borders. This package overwrites the qrcode printing functions to fill connected regions of the QR code using TikZ, allowing prettier QR codes on screen visualization, with possibility of customization.
This package provides several tools that aim to simplify the compilation of LaTeX documents:
LaTeX.mk: a Makefile snippet to help compiling LaTeX documents in DVI, PDF, PS, ... format. Dependencies are automatically tracked: one should be able to compile documents with a one-line Makefile containing include LaTeX.mk. Complex documents (with multiple bibliographies, indexes, glossaries, ...) should be correctly managed.figlatex.sty: a LaTeX package to easily insert Xfig figures. It can interact with LaTeX.mk so that the latter automatically invokesfig2devif needed.
This package is meant for content which you reuse regularly, like songs in small booklets. For example the booklets used at church, weddings or similar events. You typeset your content once (most likely a song), garnish it with some meta data and put it into a file. From there you can insert this content into your document with one single line. The inserted content can have header and footer that use the meta data (i.e., title, composer, lyricist). Inside these content fragments, you can combine an image of a stave line with song lyrics.
The PDF visualizer http://issuu.com/ISSUU is a popular service which shows PDF documents ``a page a time''. Due to the way it is implemented, internal links in these documents are not allowed. Instead, they must be converted to external ones in the form http://issuu.com/action/page?page=PAGENUMBER. The package patches hyperref to produce external links in the required form instead of internal links created by \ref, \cite and other commands.
Since the package redefines the internals of hyperref, it must be loaded after hyperref.
The package uses a text font (usually the document's text font) for the letters of the Latin alphabet needed when typesetting mathematics. (Optionally, other characters in the font may also be used). This facility makes possible (for a document with simple mathematics) a far wider choice of text font, with little worry that no specially designed accompanying maths fonts are available. The package also offers a simple mechanism for using many different choices of (text hence, now, maths) font in the same document. Of course, using one font for two purposes helps produce smaller PDF files.
The statistics package can compute and typeset statistics like frequency tables, cumulative distribution functions (increasing or decreasing, in frequency or absolute count domain), from the counts of individual values, or ranges, or even the raw value list with repetitions. It can also compute and draw a bar diagram in case of individual values, or, when the data repartition is known from ranges, an histogram or the continuous cumulative distribution function. You can ask statistics to display no result, selective results or all of them. Similarly statistics can draw only some parts of the graphs.
The package supports drawing proof trees of the kind often used in introductory logic classes, especially those aimed at students without strong mathemtical backgrounds. Hodges (1991) is one example of a text which uses this system. When teaching such a system it is especially useful to annotate the tree with line numbers, justifications and explanations of branch closures. The package provides a single environment, prooftree, and a variety of tools for annotating, customising and highlighting such trees. A cross-referencing system is provided for trees which cite line numbers in justifications for proof lines or branch closures.
Montserrat is a geometric sans-serif typeface designed by Julieta Ulanovsky. It is rather close in spirit to Gotham and Proxima Nova, but has its own individual appearance --- more informal, less extended, and more idiosyncratic. It is provided in a total of nine different weights, each having eight figure styles and small caps in both upright and italic shapes. There are two quite different versions that don't fit into the usual LaTeX classifications. The version having the appellation Alternates has letter shapes that are much more rounded than the default version, reflecting the signage in the neighborhood of Montserrat.
Romande ADF is a serif font family with oldstyle figures, designed as a substitute for Times, Tiffany or Caslon. The family currently includes upright, italic and small-caps shapes in each of regular and demi-bold weights and an italic script in regular. The support package renames the fonts according to the Karl Berry font name scheme and defines four families. Two of these primarily provide access to the ``standard'' or default characters while the ``alternate'' families support alternate characters, additional ligatures and the long ``s''. The included package files provide access to these features in LaTeX as explained in the documentation.
This LuaLaTeX package provides extensive support for handling options, on package level and locally. It allows the declaration of sets of options, along with defaults, allowed values and limited type checking. These options can be enforced as package options, changed at any point during a document, or overwritten locally by optional macro arguments. It is also possible to instantiate an Options object as an independent Lua object, without linking it to a package. Luaoptions can be used to enforce and prepopulate options, or it can be used to simply handle the parsing of optional key=value arguments into proper Lua tables.
This package defines the command \perfectcut#1#2 which displays a bracket <#1||#2>. Various other delimiters are similarly defined (parentheses, square brackets ...). The effect of these commands is to let the delimiters grow according to the number of nested \perfectcommands (regardless of the size of the contents).
The package was originally intended for solving a notational issue for direct-style continuation calculi in proof theory. For general use, the package also defines commands for defining other sorts of delimiters which will behave in the same way. The package also offers a robust reimplementation of \big, \bigg, etc.
Many people preparing their resumes find the requirement ``please list five (or six, or ten) papers authored by you''. The same requirement is often stated for reports prepared by professional teams. The creation of such lists may be a cumbersome task. Even more difficult is it to support such lists over the time, when new papers are added. The BibTeX style bestpapers.bst is intended to facilitate this task. It is based on the idea that it is easier to score than to sort: we can assign a score to a paper and then let the computer select the papers with highest scores.
This program can be used to automate the upload of a package to CTAN. The description of the package is contained in a configuration file. The provided information is validated in any case. If the validation succeeds and not only the validation is requested, then the provided archive file will be placed in the incoming area of the CTAN for further processing by the CTAN team. In any case any finding during the validation is reported at the end of the processing. Note that the validation is the default and an official submission has to be requested by an appropriate command line option.
In colorblind-safe documents, the contents are presented in a way that the same information is conveyed to readers regardless of a potential color vision deficiency. This package provides the tools necessary for colorblind-safe typesetting in LaTeX. It provides color schemes for a wide range of applications. The most commonly used schemes are qualitative schemes, providing easily distinguishable colors for use in graphics, but also for text coloring or highlighting. Additionally, diverging and sequential schemes are included which can be used for encoding quantitative information using colors. This package incorporates colorblind-safeness into the writing process, making it both less cumbersome and less error-prone.
This bundle provides a class examdesign. The class provides several features useful for designing tests or question sets: it allows for explicit markup of questions and answers; the class will, at the user's request, automatically generate answer keys; multiple versions of the same test can be generated automatically, with the ordering of questions within each section randomly permuted so as to minimize cheating; the generated answer keys can be constructed either with or without the questions included; environments are provided to assist in constructing the most common types of test question: matching, true/false, multiple-choice, fill-in-the-blank, and short answer/essay questions.
This package provides an user interface for making LaTeX cross-references flexibly, while allowing to have them checked for consistency with the document structure as typeset. Statements such as above, on the next page, previously, can be given to \zcheck in free-form, and a set of checks can be specified to be run against a given label, which will result in a warning at compilation time if any of these checks fail. \zctarget and the zcregion environment are also defined as a means to easily set label targets to arbitrary places in the text which can be referred to by \zcheck.
