Japanese pLaTeX and upLaTeX formats and packages often conflict with other LaTeX packages which are unaware of pLaTeX and upLaTeX. In the worst case, such packages throw a fatal error or end up with a wrong output. The goal of this package is that there should be no need to worry about such incompatibilities, because specific patches are loaded automatically whenever necessary. This helps not only to simplify source files, but also to make the appearance of working pLaTeX or upLaTeX sources similar to those of ordinary LaTeX ones.

This package was developed as a typographers toolbox offering important basic features for everyday work. It allows setting the paper size and the page layout; it can print crop marks; and it can reflect pages both horizontally and vertically.

Lato is a sanserif typeface family designed by Lukasz Dziedzic. This font, which includes five weights (hairline, light, regular, bold and black), is available as TrueType files. The package provides support for this font in LaTeX.

This package contains the bibliography for Die TeXnische Komodie, the journal of the German-speaking TeX User Group.

This package provides the binaries for texlive-omegaware.

The package draws graphs typically found in molecular biology texts. Currently, the package contains modules for drawing DNA sequencing chromatograms and protein domain diagrams.

The package provides a wide range of abbreviations for terms used in telecommunications engineering.

This package provides some macros for the basic manipulation of comma-separated lists (adding, removing, counting, etc.).

The package provides the language definition file for support of Gaidhlig (Scottish Gaelic) in Babel. Some shortcuts are defined, as well as translations of standard LaTeX names.

This package provides support for UTF-16BE Unicode character encoding (called a big-endian character string) for the text string type (PDF Reference, version 1.7, beginning on page 158). Text strings are used in ``text annotations, bookmark names, article threads, document information, and so forth'' (to partially quote page 158). The particular application is to set property values of form fields, at least those properties that take the text strings as its value. The package contains support for Basic Latin plus the ability to enter any Unicode character using the notation \uXXXX, where XXXX are four hex digits.

This package allows you to add version control information as a gray watermark on each page of your document. The SVN info is read from keyword tags such as $Id$, via the svn or svn-multi packages.

This PSTricks package provides a command \pstPutAbs(x,y) to put an object at an arbitrary absolute (or even a relative) position on the page.

The package provides horizontal alignment, as in the LaTeX command \listfiles. Uses may include in-text tables, or even code listings.

This package provides a redefinition of \verb and verbatim so that long lines are breakable before \ and after { with % as hyphen. It allows you to define your own verbatim-like environments (subject to a size limit) and allows you to declare any single character as a shorthand as in the \MakeShortVerb command of the shortvrb package.

This package offers you a LaTeX style file and two classes to typeset articles or books in a simple and clear way. These classes currently have native support for English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese (European and Brazilian), and Spanish typesetting. They compile with any major TeX engine. You may also wish to consider the packages einfart and simplivre, which are enhanced versions of the classes provided here.

This package provides a translation of Oetiker's original (Not so) short introduction to LaTeX2e.

The dottex package allows you to encapsulate DOT and Neato files in your document (DOT and Neato are both part of graphviz; DOT creates directed graphs, Neato undirected graphs).

This module provides the french style that can be set using \DTMsetstyle provided by datetime2.sty.

The package provides a small Perl script to filter the online output from a TeX run, attempting to show only those messages which probably deserve some change in the source. The TeX invocation itself need not change.

This package provides a BibTeX style derived from the standard master, presumably for use with the aaai package.

The package provides a set of style files for use with BibLaTeX and Biber to produce citations and bibliographies in accordance with the widely-used Oxford Standard for the Citation of Legal Authorities. It also includes facilities for constructing tables of cases and legislation from citations (in conjunction with appropriate indexing packages).

LaTeX for Word Processor Users is a guide that helps converting knowledge and techniques of word processing into the LaTeX typesetting environment. It aims at helping such users use LaTeX instead.

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.

The bundle simplifies and automates conversion of document fragments into external EPS or PDF files. The bundle consists of two parts: a LaTeX package that implements a document level interface, and a command line tool that generates the external graphics.
