Preloading hyphenation patterns (or hyphen rules) into any format based upon LuaTeX is not required in LuaTeX and recent releases of Babel don't do it anyway. This package is addressed to those who just want to select the languages and load their patterns by means of language.dat without loading babel.

This is a simple package that fixes a problem in the way LaTeX handles ellipses: it always puts a tiny bit more space after \dots in text mode than before it, which results in the ellipsis being off-center when used between two words.

The package provides LaTeX, pdfLaTeX, XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX support for the IBM Plex families of fonts. Serif, Sans and Mono families are available in eight weights: Regular, Light, ExtraLight, Thin, Bold, Text, Medium and SemiBold (with corresponding italics).

This collection of packages provides support for Czech and Slovak.

This package provides LaTeX, pdfLaTeX, XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX support for the Gillius and Gillius No.: 2 families of sans serif fonts and condensed versions of them, designed by Hirwen Harendal.

The package provides two commands for placing an arc over (\overarc) or under (\underarc) a piece of text. (The text may be up to three letters long.) The commands generate an \hbox, and may be used both in text and in maths formulae.

This MetaPost library was initially written to automate some elements of black and white illustrations for a physics textbook. It provides functions to draw things like lines of variable width, shaded spheres, and tubes of different kinds, which can be used to produce images of a variety of objects. The library also contains functions to draw some objects constructed from these primitives.

The asciilist package provides the environments AsciiList and AsciiDocList, which enable quickly typesetting nested lists in LaTeX without having to type individual item macros or opening/closing list environments. The package provides auxiliary functionality for loading such lists from files and provides macros for configuring the use of the list environments and the appearance of the typeset results.

The bundle contains fonts for use with pTeX and the documents for the makejvf program.

This package provides utilities and documentation related to TeX dimensional units, usable both with Plain TeX and with LaTeX.

Detex is a program to remove TeX constructs from a text file. It recognizes the \input command. The program assumes it is dealing with LaTeX input if it sees the string \begin{document} in the text. In this case, it also recognizes the \include and \includeonly commands. The author now considers this program to be obsolete and Piotr Kubowicz's OpenDetex as its successor.

This package provides the German version of A Short Introduction to LaTeX2e: LaTeX2e-Kurzbeschreibung.

The package allows the production of a document with pages mirrored. This is sometimes required by publishers who want camera-ready documents to be printed on transparent film (to be viewed from the ``wrong'' side). The package only works with pdfLaTeX or LuaLaTeX in PDF output mode.

The package is a toolbox of programming facilities geared primarily towards LaTeX class and package authors. It provides LaTeX frontends to some of the new primitives provided by e-TeX as well as some generic tools which are not strictly related to e-TeX but match the profile of this package. The package provides functions that seem to offer alternative ways of implementing some LaTeX kernel commands; nevertheless, the package will not modify any part of the LaTeX kernel.

This is an advanced letter document class which extends LaTeX's usual letter class, providing support for building your own letterhead and marking fold points for window envelopes. The class supersedes an earlier class called myletter.

The package provides citations according with the house style of the Historische Zeitschrift, a German historical journal.

This is the Italian translation of the (Not so) Short Introduction to LaTeX2e.

This package provides an English translation of the documentation for the wrapstuff package.

This package can only be used with LuaLaTeX or XeLaTeX. It does the font setting for the OpenType font TeX Gyre Heros. The condensed versions of the fonts are also supported. The missing typefaces for slanted text are defined.

The package provides font description files for all the many shapes available from the cbfonts collection. The files provide the means whereby the NFSS knows which fonts a LaTeX user is requesting.

Tip: installing texlive-cbfonts will automatically propagate this one.

The package enables the user to make reference to division marks (such as book, chapter, section), in the document being referenced, in addition to the page-based references that BibTeX-based citations have always had. The citation is made in the same way as the LaTeX standard, but what's inside the square brackets may include the division specification.

Brandeis University's computer science courses often assign problem sets which require fairly rigorous formatting. This document class, which extends article, provides a simple way to typeset these problem sets in LaTeX.

This LaTeX package implements a \SmartUnit macro for converting between (some) metric and Imperial units.
