While Unicode supports the vast majority of use cases, there are certain specialized niches which require characters and glyphs not (yet) represented in the standard. Thus the Private Use Area (PUA) at code points E000-F8FF, which enables third parties to define arbitrary character sets. This package allows configuring a number of macros for using various PUA character sets in LaTeX (AGL, CYFI, MUFI, SIL, TITUS, UCSUR, UNZ), to enable transcription and display of medieval and other documents.

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.

This package offers a collection of macros to help in the process of writing a paper. You may add comments, todo notes, etc.,during revision, in a colourful way. The package also summarizes the inserted notes at the end of the document. There are some predefined note commands as well as a way of defining new ones to suit the user's needs. You may safely remove this package once the paper is finished.

This package provides a BibTeX style to format reference lists in the Harvard at Newcastle style recommended by Newcastle University. It should be used alongside natbib for citations.

Several electrical symbols like resistor, capacitor, transistors etc., are defined. The symbols can be connected with wires. The package also contains an American resistor symbol for those of us on that side of the Atlantic. The package also has simple facilities for producing optics diagrams; however, no-one would deny that the PSTricks pst-optic package, or the MetaPost makecirc package do the job better.

The package provides easy access to ancient Greek names of days and months of various regions of Greece. In case the historical information about a region is not complete, we use the Athenian name of the month. Moreover commands and options are provided, in order to completely switch to the ancient way, such as \today.

This LaTeX3 package based on TikZ helps to generate beautiful Pascal (Yanghui) triangles. It provides a unique drawing macro \pascal which can generate isosceles or right-angle triangles customized by means of different \pascal macro options or the \pascalset macro.

This package inputs or includes stand-alone LaTeX documents, ignoring everything but the material between \begin{document} and \end{document}.

This package offers environments and commands for one-level and two-level lists of short items (e.g., exercises in textbooks). The environments support optional arguments of item numbering similar to the enumerate or paralist packages.

The bidi package provides a convenient interface for typesetting bidirectional texts with plain TeX and LaTeX. The package includes adaptations for use with many other commonly-used packages.

Clear Sans was designed by Daniel Ratighan. It is available in three weights (regular, medium, and bold) with corresponding italics, plus light and thin upright (without italics).

It has minimized, unambiguous characters and slightly narrow proportions, making it ideal for UI design. Its strong, recognizable forms avoid distracting ambiguity, making Clear Sans comfortable for reading short UI labels and long passages in both screen and print. The fonts are available in both TrueType and Type 1 formats.

This package allows writing presentations with incremental slides. It does not presuppose any specific document class. Rather, it is a lightweight alternative to full-fledged presentation classes like beamer.

This package provides a user interface for making LaTeX cross-references which automates some of their typical features, thus easing their input in the document and improving the consistency of typeset results. A reference made with \zcref includes a name according to its type, and lists of multiple labels can be automatically sorted and compressed into ranges when due. The reference format is highly and easily customizable, both globally and locally.

The class provides a PhD thesis template for the GSEM, University of Geneva, Switzerland. The class provides utilities to easily set up the cover page, the front matter pages, the page headers, etc., conformant to the official guidelines of the GSEM Faculty for writing PhD dissertations.

The bundle provides two packages, fenxitok and fenixpar. The fenixtok package provides user macros to add material to a token register; the material will be (automatically) removed from the token register when the register is executed. Material may be added either to the left or to the right, and care is taken not to override any redefinition that may be included in the token register itself. The fenixpar package uses the macros of fenixtok to provide a user interface to manipulation of the \everypar token register. The packages require the e-TeX extensions; with them, they work either with Plain TeX or with LaTeX.

Typewriter-style fonts are best for program listings, but Computer Modern Typewriter prints ` and ' as bent opening and closing single quotes. Other fonts, and most programming languages, print ` as a grave accent and ' upright; ' is used both to open and to close quoted strings. The package switches the typewriter font to Computer Modern Typewriter in OT1 encoding, and modifies the behaviour of verbatim, verbatim*, \verb, and \verb* to print in the expected way. It does this regardless of other fonts or encodings in use, so long as the package is loaded after the other fonts were. The package does not affect \tt, \texttt, etc.

Writing Scientific Documents Using LaTeX is an article introducing the use of LaTeX in typesetting scientific documents.

This package (once part of the exsheets package), provides a framework for providing multilingual features to a LaTeX package. The package has its own basic dictionaries for English, Brazilian, Catalan, Dutch, French, German, Polish and Spanish. It aims to use translation material for English, Dutch, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Catalan, Turkish, Croatian, Hungarian, Danish and Portuguese from babel or polyglossia if either is in use in the document.

The wasy (Waldi Symbol) font by Roland Waldi provides many glyphs like male and female symbols and astronomical symbols, as well as the complete lasy font set and other odds and ends. The wasysym package implements an easy to use interface for these symbols.

The package provides a Perl script that allows the uploads of a contribution to CTAN from the command line. The aim is to simplify the release process for LaTeX package authors. Note by the CTAN team (2015-02-05): It seems that this script is currently not working.
