The package geometry is excellent for customizing the page layout. However, using the \newgeometry command to change the page size in the middle of the document only affects the typing area and does not affect the real paper (stock) size. This package circumvents this situation by resizing the paper (stock) size to the new page layout.

This collection includes all MetaPost and Metafont packages, along with packages in collection-basic.

This package contains an ASCII wall chart. The document may be converted between Plain TeX and LaTeX by a simple editing action.

This package provides a package for defining and using patterns in MetaPost, using the Pattern Color Space available in PostScript Level 2.

This package extends the \newtheorem command with a new command, \newshadetheorem, which can produce theorem statement in a shaded box. It supports all the options of \newtheorem.

However, this package is considered as obsolete by its author. Users are generally recommended, therefore, to use mdframed instead.

This collection provides support packages for German.

The package extends ConTeXt's system of number conversion, by adding numeration using cyrillic letters.

This package makes typesetting quantities found in thermodynamics texts relatively simple. The commands are flexible and intended to be relatively intuitive. It handles several sets of notation for total, specific, and molar quantities; allows changes between symbols (e.g., A vs. F for Helmholtz free energy); and greatly simplifies the typesetting of symbols and partial derivatives commonly encountered in mixture thermodynamics. Changes of one's notes from one textbook to another can be achieved relatively easily by changing package options.

This package provides a TikZ library for working with tiles, tilings, and tessellations. Using it, one can define tiles, place tiles, deform tiles, and --- in some cases --- apply replacement rules to generate tessellations. It has pre-defined tiles for most of the Penrose tile sets and the aperiodical polykite tiles. This is a replacement for the penrose package, renamed as it now deals with more extensive tiles than just the Penrose tile sets.

This PStricks package covers all the colour gradient functionality of pst-grad (part of the base PSTricks distribution), and provides the following facilities:

• it permits the user to specify an arbitrary number of colours, along with the points at which they are to be reached;

• it converts between RGB and HSV behind the scenes;

• it provides concentric and radial gradients;

• it provides a command \psBall that generates bullets with a three-dimensional appearance.

The C.D.P. Bundle can be used to typeset high-quality business letters formatted according to Italian style conventions. It is highly configurable, and its modular structure provides you with building blocks of increasing level, by means of which you can compose a large variety of letters. It is also possible to write letters divided into sections and paragraphs, to include floating figures and tables, and to have the relevant indexes compiled automatically. A single input file can contain several letters, and each letter will have its own table of contents, etc., independent from the other ones.

This is a modified version of the pas-cours package made compatible with XeLaTeX and Polyglossia to write Arabic documents with fancy boxed theorem-alike environments.

The package provides efficient looping macros for processing both CSV (separated-values) and NSV/TSV (non-separated values) lists. CSV lists which have associated parsers may be processed with the tools of the package.

The ucdavisthesis class is a LaTeX class that allows you to create a dissertation or thesis conforming to UC Davis formatting requirements as of April 2016.

This package provides a cult Greek font from the eighties, used at the University of Crete, Greece. It belonged to the first TeX installation in a Greek University and most probably the first TeX installation that supported the Greek language.

This package provides a way to typeset LaTeX source code and the related result in the same document.

This large collection of fonts (in Adobe Type 1 format), with the LaTeX package gives access to almost all runes ever used in Europe. The bundle covers not only the main forms but also a lot of varieties.

This is the plain TeX file xii.tex. Call pdftex xii.tex to produce a (perhaps) surprising typeset document.

This package contains three packages: pfnote to number footnotes per page, fnpos to control the position of footnotes, and dblfnote to make footnotes double-columned.

This bundle contains LaTeX classes and packages to create machine readable questionnaires. Metadata is generated for the whole document and it is possible to process created forms fully automatically using the SDAPS main program.

Its features include:

• PDF form generation,

• advanced array like layouting,

• can flow over multiple pages and repeats the header automatically,

• optional document wide alignment of array environments,

• has complex layout features like rotating the headers to safe space,

• ability to exchange rows and columns on the fly,

• different question types: free-form text, single/multiple choice questions, range questions,

• Layouting questions in rows or columns,

• Possibility to pre-fill questionnaires from LaTeX.

This LaTeX2e package makes it possible to add timing marks to lecture notes in order to help managing the time available for presenting a given section of the document. It also provides tools to record and estimate the progress throughout the course.

This package provides macros to read and compare the modification dates of files. The files may be .tex files, images or other files (as long as they can be found by LaTeX). It uses the \pdffilemoddate primitive of pdfLaTeX to find the file modification date as PDF date string, parses the string and returns the value to the user. The package will also work for DVI output with recent versions of the LaTeX compiler which uses pdfLaTeX in DVI mode. The functionality is provided by purely expandable macros or by faster but non-expandable ones.

This package typesets physical units following the rules of the International System of Units (SI). Note that the package is now superseded by siunitx; siunits has maintenance-only support, now.

This package balances the columns on the last page of a two-column document. If the page is simple (no footnotes, floats, or marginpars), it uses the balance package; otherwise, it uses \enlargethispage to make the left column shorter, balancing the columns.
