This package was created with the aim of facilitating the work of Elementary School teachers who need to create colorful and attractive activities for their students. It is a product of the Computational Mathematics discipline offered at the Federal University of Vicosa --- Campus UFV --- Florestal by professor Fernando de Souza Bastos. It makes use of the TikZ and xcolor packages.
The package provides commands to convert CJK characters to Unicode in non-UTF-8 encoding; it provides hooks to support hyperref in producing correct bookmarks. The bundle also provides /ToUnicode mapping file(s) for a CJK subfont; these can be used with the cmap package, allowing searches of, and cut-and-paste operations on a PDF file generated by pdfTeX.
This package provides a LaTeX package for typesetting business cards, index cards, and flash cards in an easy and flexible way, optionally also the reverse side. You will have to furnish the paper size, the desired size of your card, the printable area of your printer, and the design of the card. Everything else is taken care of by elzcards.
This package provides fonts in sizes of 12pt up to 107pt and also makes sure that in math formulas the symbols appear in the right size. It can also create a PostScript header file for Dvips which ensures that the poster will be printed in the right size. The supported sizes are DIN A0, DIN A1, DIN A2 and DIN A3.
This package offers low-level mplib integration for plain LuaTeX and is designed with the purpose of being easy to extend. The use of multiple simultaneous MetaPost instances is supported, as well as running TeX or lua code from within MetaPost. With the included minim-mp format file, you can even use LuaTeX as a stand-alone MetaPost compiler.
When typing an open interval as $]a,b[$, a closing bracket is being used in place of an opening fence and vice versa. This leads to wrong spacing. The \interval macro provided by this package attempts to solve this. The package also supports fence scaling and ensures that the enclosing fences will end up having the proper closing and opening types.
This LaTeX package provides commands to convert from the Gregorian calendar to the Japanese rendering of the Japanese calendar. You can choose whether the numbers are written in Western numerals or kanji numerals. Note that the package only deals with dates in the year 1873 or later, where the Japanese calendar is really a Gregorian calendar with a different notation of years.
Lorem ipsum is an improper Latin filler dummy text, cf.: the lipsum package. It is commonly used for demonstrating the textual elements of a document template. Lorum ipse is a Hungarian variation of Lorem ipsum. (Lorum is a Hungarian card game, and ipse is a Hungarian slang word meaning bloke.) With this package you can typeset 150 paragraphs of Lorum ipse.
The package provides means of randomising lists of tokens, or lists of chunks of tokens. Two mechanisms for defining chunks are provided: the \ranToks command accepts an argument containing tokens to be randomised; and the \bRTVToks/\eRTVToks commands delimit a collection of tokens for randomising; each group inside a rtVw constitutes one of these (typically larger) token sets.
This is a LaTeX package written to simplify the input of Chinese with Hanyu Pinyin and translation. Hanyu Pinyin is placed above Chinese with the xpinyin package, and the translation is placed below. The package can be used as a utility for learning to write and pronounce Chinese characters, for Chinese character learning plans, presentations, exercise booklets and other documentation work.
This package is an extension of the xkeyval package that offers macros for hiding certain keys so that they are not used in certain places. The idea is that one first imports the package in the document preamble, and then creates masks use at certain points in the document. The mask can also be queried or cleared at some later point.
The package was designed as an extension of the lastpage package. When more than one page numbering scheme is in operation (as in a book class document with frontmatter), the labels above do not give the total number of pages, so the package also provides labels pagesLTS.<numbering scheme>, where the numbering scheme is arabic, roman, etc.
The package supports XeTeX's (and other putative future similar engines') need for Unicode characters, in a similar way to what the fontenc does for 8-bit (and the like) fonts: convert accent-glyph sequence to a single Unicode character for output. The package also covers glyphs specified by packages (such as tipa) which define many commands for single text glyphs.
This package provides extra PDF features for OpTeX (or in limited form for plain LuaTeX and LuaLaTeX). As a minimalistic format, OpTeX does not support advanced features of the PDF file format in its base. This third party package aims to provide them. As such, it supports insertion of multimedia (audio, video, 3D), hyperlinks and other actions, triggering events, transitions, and attachments.
The package provides tools for including graphics at the full size of the output medium, or for creating pages whose size is that of the graphic they contain. A principal use case is documents that require inclusion of (potentially many) scans or photographs. Bookmarking is especially supported. The tool box has basic macros and a convenience user interface that wraps \includegraphics.
This package provides a set of high-quality icons for use in notes for tabletop role-playing games. The icons are meant to be used in the body text, but they can also be used in other contexts such as graphics or diagrams. The package comes in two variants, one based on the l3draw package, and the other on PGF/TikZ.
This package provides a command much like hyperref's \url that typesets a URL using a typewriter-like font. However, if the dvips driver is being used, the original \url doesn't allow line breaks in the middle of the created link: the link comes in one atomic piece. This package allows such line breaks in the generated links.
This package contains some first aid for LaTeX packages or classes that require updates because of internal changes to the LaTeX kernel that are not yet reflected in the package's or class's code. The file latex2e-first-aid-for-external-files.ltx provided by this package is meant to be loaded during format generation and not by the user.
The package helps to keep track of formal concepts for a specific field or document. This is particularly useful for scientific papers (for example, in physics, mathematics or computer science), which may introduce several concepts (with their own symbols). The package's commands allow the user to define a concept (typically, near its first use), and will ensure consistent use throughout the document.
Dvipdfmx (formerly dvipdfm-cjk) is a development of dvipdfm created to support multi-byte character encodings and large character sets for East Asian languages. Dvipdfmx, if called with the name dvipdfm, operates in a dvipdfm compatibility mode, so that users of the both packages need only keep one executable. A secondary design goal is to support as many PDF features as does pdfTeX.
The package aids spell-checking of TeX documents compiled with the LuaTeX engine. It can give visual feedback in PDF output similar to WYSIWYG word processors. The package relies on an external spell-checker application to check spelling of a text file and to output a list of bad spellings. The package should work with most spell-checkers, even dumb, TeX-unaware ones.
Powerdot is a presentation class for LaTeX that allows for the quick and easy development of professional presentations. It comes with many tools that enhance presentations and aid the presenter. Examples are automatic overlays, personal notes and a handout mode. To view a presentation, DVI, PS or PDF output can be used. A powerful template system is available to easily develop new styles.
MnSymbol is a symbol font family, designed to be used in conjunction with Adobe Minion Pro (via the MinionPro package). Almost all of LaTeX and AMS mathematical symbols are provided; remaining coverage is available from the MinionPro font with the MinionPro package. The fonts are available both as Metafont source and as Adobe Type 1 format, and a comprehensive support package is provided.
This package provides macro tools:
quire: making booklets, etc.;gloss: vertically align words in consecutive sentences;loop: a looping construct;dolines: meta'-macros to separate arguments by newlines;labels: address labels and bulk mail letters;styledef: selectively input part of a file;border: borders around boxes.
