The accfonts package contains three utilities to permit easy manipulation of fonts, in particular the creation of unusual accented characters. mkt1font works on Adobe Type 1 fonts, vpl2vpl works on TeX virtual fonts and vpl2ovp transforms a TeX font to an Omega one.
This package provides a family of 7-bit fonts with a code table designed for setting modern polytonic Greek. The fonts are provided as Metafont source; macros to produce a Greek variant of Plain TeX (including a hyphenation table adapted to the fonts code table) are provided.
The bullcntr package defines the command \bullcntr, which may be thought of as an analogue of the \fnsymbol command: like the latter, it displays the value of a counter lying between 1 and 9, but uses, for the purpose, a regular pattern of bullets.
The package provides an \AtAppendix command to add code to a hook that is executed when \appendix is called by the user. Additionally, a TeX conditional \ifappendix and a LaTeX-style conditional \IfAppendix are provided to check if \appendix has already been called.
The package adds a macro \rgcounts which displays the allocation status of the TeX registers. The display is written into the .log file as it is a bit verbose. An automatic call to \rgcounts is done at \begin{document} and \end{document}.
This package allows you to write \Level 2 {Some heading} instead of the usual \section stuff; the definitions of the levels can then easily be changed. There is a mechanism for shifting all levels. This makes it easy to bundle existing articles into a compilation.
This package provides a package for typesetting scholarly critical editions, replacing the established ledmac and eledmac packages. It supports indexing by page and by line numbers, and simple tabular- and array-style environments. The package is distributed with the related reledpar package.
The setspace package provides support for setting the spacing between lines in a document. Package options include singlespacing, onehalfspacing, and doublespacing. Alternatively the spacing can be changed as required with the \singlespacing, \onehalfspacing, and \doublespacing commands. Other size spacings also available.
This package allows you to use alphanumeric section numbering. Its output is similar to alphanum, but you can use the standard LaTeX sectioning commands, so that it is possible to switch numbering schemes easily. Greek letters, double letters (bb) and different delimiters around them are supported.
The package provides techniques for adding flip book animations in the corner of your LaTeX documents (using images or ASCII art). Animations are defined as a set of numbered files (e.g., im1.pdf, im2.pdf, ...). The package relies on fancyhdr to control the corners.
The package provides commands for typesetting number lines (coordinate axes), coordinate systems and grids in the picture environment. The package may be integrated with other drawing mechanisms: the documentation shows examples of drawing graphs (coordinate tables created by Maple), using the eepic package's drawing capabilities.
This package provides the \setcounterref and \addtocounterref commands which use the section (or other) number from the reference as the value to put into the counter. It also provides \setcounterpageref and \addtocounterpageref that do the corresponding thing with the page reference of the label.
This package enables users to specify in their sources the following settings on the PDF document to output: PDF version (1.4, 1.5 etc.); whether or not to compress streams; whether or not to use object streams. This package supports all major PDF-output engines and dvipdfmx.
The LaTeX internal command \@finalstrut is used automatically used at the end of footnote texts to insert a strut to avoid mis-spacing of multiple footnotes. Unfortunately the command can cause a blank line at the end of a footnote. The package provides a solution to this problem.
The hypdvips package fixes some problems when using hyperref with Dvips. It also adds support for breaking links, file attachments, embedded documents and different types of GoTo-links. The cooperation of hyperref with cleveref is improved, which in addition allows an enhanced back-referencing system.
Exceptions for American English hyphenation patterns are occasionally published in the TeX User Group journal TUGboat. This bundle provides alternative Perl and Bourne shell scripts to convert the source of such an article into an exceptions file, together with a recent copy of the article and machine-readable files.
xcharter repackages Bitstream Charter with an extended set of features. The extension provides small caps, oldstyle figures and superior figures in all four styles, accompanied by LaTeX font support files. The fonts themselves are provided in both Adobe Type 1 and OTF formats, with supporting files as necessary.
The package offers enhancements for theorem-like environments: easier control of layout; proper placement of endmarks even when the environment ends with \end{enumerate} or \end{displaymath} (including support for amsmath displayed-equation environments); and support for making a list of theorems, analogous to \listoffigures.
The package provides macros for typesetting natural deduction proofs in Fitch style, with subproofs indented and offset by scope lines. The proofs from use of the package are in the format used in the textbook Language, Proof, and Logic by Dave Barker-Plummer, Jon Barwise, and John Etchemendy.
This package produces a wide page layout for documents that use A4 paper size. Moreover, LayAureo provides both a simple hook for leaving an empty space, which is required if pages are bundled by a press binding, and an option called big that forces typearea to become maximum.
Scientific Knowledge Graph TeX (SciKgTeX) is a LuaLaTeX package which makes it possible to annotate specific research contributions in scientific documents. SciKGTeX will enrich the document by adding the marked contributions to PDF metadata in a structured XMP format which can be picked up by search engines and knowledge graphs.
This package provides Frans Velthuis preprocessor for Devanagari text, and fonts and macros to use when typesetting the processed text. The macros provide features that support Sanskrit, Hindi, Marathi, Nepali, and other languages typically printed in the Devanagari script. The package provides fonts, in both Metafont and Type 1 formats.
The ragged2e package defines new commands \Centering, \RaggedLeft, and \RaggedRight and new environments Center, FlushLeft, and FlushRight, which set ragged text and are easily configurable to allow hyphenation (the corresponding commands in LaTeX, all of whose names are lower-case, prevent hyphenation altogether).
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.
