This package includes Plain TeX macros adding extra functionalities. This comprises bibliography support, token manipulation, cross-references, verbatim, determining length of a paragraph's last line, multicolumn output, Polish bibliography and index styles, prepress and color separation, graphics manipulation, and tables.
The package defines a command \leading
, whose argument specifies the nominal distance between consecutive baselines of typeset text. The command replaces the rather more difficult LaTeX command \linespread
, where the leading is specified by reference to the font size.
This package provides a very short snippet that sets the footnotes to be conformant with the Chicago style, so the footnotes at the bottom of the page are now marked with a full-sized number, rather than with a superscript number.
Kblocks defines a number of commands to make drawing control block diagrams using TikZ/PGF more structured and easier. It reduces the learning curve for TikZ/PGF and serves as a frontend, by focusing on the block or flow diagrams only.
This package provides a prefix \named
to be used in TeX definitions so that parameters can be identified by their name rather than by number, giving parameters a semantic rather than syntactic meaning, making it easy to understand long definitions.
The package calculates the age of someone or something in years. Internally it uses the datenumber
package to calculate the age in days; conversion from days to years is then performed, taking care of leap years and such odd things.
This package provides commands for abbreviating the word ``Suppose'' in six fonts and with other variations. The author recommends only using these commands when the immediately succeeding strings are mathematical in nature. He does not recommend using them in formal work.
This package provides a development of the (old) german.sty
, this bundle provides German packages, BibTeX styles and documentary examples, for writing documents with bibliographies. The author has since developed the babelbib
bundle, which (he asserts) supersedes germbib
.
The metsymb
package introduces commands to generate official meteorological symbols with vectorial quality. It essentially introduces a new font in which each symbol is assigned to a glyph, which can then be called individually from LaTeX documents via dedicated commands.
Hopatch provides a command with which the user may register of patch code for a particular package. Hopatch will apply the patch immediately, if the relevant package has already been loaded; otherwise it will store the patch until the package appears.
This package provides interfaces to allow creating ZUGFeRD or Faktur-X invoices with LaTeX including the XML file. It can be used to modify personal invoicing templates to fulfill the requirements for digital invoicing without further modification of the invoicing processes.
This package provides macros which can add a specified number of days to the current date (as specified in \today
), to save, set and restore the current date and to print it. The package has only been tested with Czech dates.
This package defines commands to manage the limited pool of input and output handles provided by TeX. The streams so provided are mapped to various of the LaTeX input and output mechanisms. Some facilities of the verbatim
package are also mapped.
Since PDF 1.5 portions of a page can be marked for better accessibility support. For example, replacement texts or expansions of abbreviations can be provided. This package starts with providing a minimal low-level interface for programmers; its status is experimental.
This package provides LaTeX font definition files for the Concrete fonts and a LaTeX package for typesetting documents using Concrete as the default font family. The files support OT1, T1, TS1, and Concrete mathematics including AMS fonts (Ulrik Vieth's concmath
).
The package simplifies the indexing of words using the \index
command of makeidx
. With the package, to index a word in a text, you only have to type it once; the package makes sure it is both typeset and indexed.
The leipzig
package provides a set of macros for standard glossing abbreviations, with options to create new ones. They are mnemonic. These abbreviations can be used alone or on top of the glossaries
package for easy indexing and glossary printing.
Using the \AtBeginPage
hook provided by this package, you can add material in the background of a page. \PageLayout
can be used to give page makeup commands to be executed on every page (e.g., depending on the page style).
Ebezier is a device independent extension for the standard picture
environment. Linear, quadratic, and cubic bezier curves are supplied in connection with higher level circle drawing commands. Additionally some macros for the calculation of curve lengths are part of this package.
This bundle started as an extension to the AGU's own published styles, providing extra facilities and improved usability. The AGU now publishes satisfactory LaTeX materials of its own; it is recommended to switch to the official distribution.
DSSerif is a mathematical font package with double struck serifed digits, upper and lower case letters, in regular and bold weights. The design was inspired by the STIX double struck fonts, which are sans serif, but starting from a Courier-like base.
The European currency symbol for the Euro implemented in Metafont, using the official European Commission dimensions, and providing several shapes (normal, slanted, bold, outline). The package also includes a LaTeX package which defines the macro, pre-compiled tfm
files, and documentation.
This package implements vector-like structures, like in C and other programming languages. So it is possible to store information in a systematic and regular way. The provided functions are similar to the ones provided for property (or sequence, or token) lists.
This directory contains the DictSym Type1 font designed by Georg Verweyen and all files required to use it with LaTeX. The font provides a number of symbols commonly used in dictionaries. The accompanying macro package makes the symbols accessible as LaTeX commands.
