A set of fonts for use as "drop-in" replacements for Adobe's basic set, comprising: Century Schoolbook (substituting for Adobe's New Century Schoolbook); Dingbats (substituting for Adobe's Zapf Dingbats); Nimbus Mono L (substituting for Abobe's Courier); Nimbus Roman No9 L (substituting for Adobe's Times); Nimbus Sans L (substituting for Adobe's Helvetica); Standard Symbols L (substituting for Adobe's Symbol); URW Bookman; URW Chancery L Medium Italic (substituting for Adobe's Zapf Chancery); URW Gothic L Book (substituting for Adobe's Avant Garde); and URW Palladio L (substituting for Adobe's Palatino).
This package implements a new bookmark (outline) organization for package hyperref. Bookmark properties such as style and color can now be set. Other action types are available (URI, GoToR, Named). The bookmarks are generated in the first compile run. Package hyperref uses two runs.
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.
The caption package provides many ways to customise the captions in floating environments like figure and table, and cooperates with many other packages. Facilities include rotating captions, sideways captions, continued captions (for tables or figures that come in several parts). A list of compatibility notes, for other packages, is provided in the documentation. The package also provides the "caption outside float" facility, in the same way that simpler packages like capt-of do. The package supersedes caption2.
This package catches the contents of a file and puts it in a macro. It requires e-TeX. Both LaTeX and plain TeX are supported.
A commercial text font donated for the common good. Support for use with LaTeX is available in freenfss, part of psnfss.
The package supports compressed, sorted lists of numerical citations, and also deals with various punctuation and other issues of representation, including comprehensive management of break points. The package is compatible with both hyperref and backref. The package is (unsurprisingly) part of the cite bundle of the author's citation-related packages.
Knuth's final iteration of his re-interpretation of a c.19 Modern-style font from Monotype. The family is comprehensive, offering both sans and roman styles, and a monospaced font, together with mathematics fonts closely integrated with the mathematical facilities of TeX itself. The base fonts are distributed as Metafont source, but autotraced PostScript Type 1 versions are available (one version in the AMS fonts distribution, and also the BaKoMa distribution). The Computer Modern fonts have inspired many later families, notably the European Computer Modern and the Latin Modern families.
The cmap package provides character map tables, which make PDF files generated by pdfLaTeX both searchable and copy-able in acrobat reader and other compliant PDF viewers. Encodings supported are OT1, T1, T2A, T2B, T2C and T5, together with LAE (Arabic), LFE (Farsi) and LGR (Greek) and a variant OT1tt for cmtt-like fonts. The package's main limitation currently is the inability to work with virtual fonts, because of limitations of pdfTeX. This restriction may be resolved in a future version of pdfTeX.
The package provides macros to collect and process a macro argument (i.e., something which looks like a macro argument) as a horizontal box rather than as a real macro argument. The "arguments" are stored as if they had been saved by \savebox or by the lrbox environment. Grouping tokens \bgroup and \egroup may be used, which allows the user to have the beginning and end of a group in different macro invocations, or to place them in the begin and end code of an environment. Arguments may contain verbatim material or other special use of characters. The macros were designed for use within other macros.
