RPMPackage texlive-pst-text-svn49542-69.lbn36.noarch
Pst-text is a PSTricks based package for plotting text along a different path and manipulating characters. It includes the functionality of the old package pst-char.
RPMPackage texlive-pst-plot-svn65346-69.lbn36.noarch
The package provides plotting of data (typically from external files), using PSTricks. Plots may be configured using a wide variety of parameters.
RPMPackage texlive-pst-ovl-svn54963-69.lbn36.noarch
The package is useful when building an image from assorted material, as in the slides of a projected presentation. The package requires pstricks, and shares that package's restrictions on usage when generating PDF output.
RPMPackage texlive-pst-node-svn61838-69.lbn36.noarch
The package enables the user to connect information, and to place labels, without knowing (in advance) the actual positions of the items to be connected, or where the connecting line should go. The macros are useful for making graphs and trees, mathematical diagrams, linguistic syntax diagrams, and so on. The package contents were previously distributed as a part of the pstricks base distribution; the package serves as an extension to PSTricks.
RPMPackage texlive-pst-math-svn64732-69.lbn36.noarch
PostScript lacks a lot of basic operators such as tan, acos, asin, cosh, sinh, tanh, acosh, asinh, atanh, exp (with e base). Also (oddly) cos and sin use arguments in degrees. Pst-math provides all those operators in a header file pst-math.pro with wrappers pst-math.sty and pst-math.tex. In addition, sinc, gauss, gammaln and bessel are implemented (only partially for the latter). The package is designed essentially to work with pst-plot but can be used in whatever PS code (such as pstricks SpecialCoor "!", which is useful for placing labels). The package also provides a routine SIMPSON for numerical integration and a solver of linear equation systems.
RPMPackage texlive-pst-grad-svn15878.1.06-69.lbn36.noarch
The package fills with colour gradients, using PSTricks. The RGB, CMYK and HSB models are supported. Other colour gradient mechanisms are to be found in package pst-slpe.
RPMPackage texlive-pst-fill-svn60671-69.lbn36.noarch
Pst-fill is a PSTricks-based package for filling and tiling areas or characters.
RPMPackage texlive-pst-eps-svn15878.1.0-69.lbn36.noarch
Pst-eps is a PSTricks-based package for exporting PSTricks images 'on the fly' to encapsulated PostScript (EPS) image files, which can then be read into a document in the usual way.
RPMPackage texlive-pst-3d-svn17257.1.10-69.lbn36.noarch
The package provides basic macros that use PSTricks for shadows, tilting and three dimensional representations of text or graphical objects.
RPMPackage texlive-psnfss-svn54694-69.lbn36.noarch
Font definition files, macros and font metrics for freely- available Adobe Type 1 fonts. The font set consists of the 'LaserWriter 35' set (originally 'freely available' because embedded in PostScript printers), and a variety of other free fonts, together with some additions. Note that while many of the fonts are available in PostScript (and other) printers, most publishers require fonts embedded in documents, which requires that you have the fonts in your TeX system. Fortunately, there are free versions of the fonts from URW (available in the URW base5 bundle). The base set of text fonts covered by PSNFSS are: AvantGarde, Bookman, Courier, Helvetica, New Century Schoolbook, Palatino, Symbol, Times Roman and Zapf Dingbats. In addition, the fonts Bitstream Charter and Adobe Utopia are covered (those fonts were contributed to the Public Domain by their commercial foundries). Separate packages are provided to load each font for use as main text font. The packages helvet (which allows Helvetica to be loaded with its size scaled to something more nearly appropriate for its use as a Sans-Serif font to match Times) and pifont (which provides the means to select single glyphs from symbol fonts) are tailored to special requirements of their fonts. Mathematics are covered by the mathptmx package, which constructs passable mathematics from a combination of Times Roman, Symbol and some glyphs from Computer Modern, and by Pazo Math (optionally extended with the fpl small-caps and old-style figures fonts) which uses Palatino as base font, with the mathpazo fonts. The bundle as a whole is part of the LaTeX 'required' set of packages.
RPMPackage texlive-psfrag-svn15878.3.04-69.lbn36.noarch
Allows LaTeX constructions (equations, picture environments, etc.) to be precisely superimposed over Encapsulated PostScript figures, using your own favorite drawing tool to create an EPS figure and placing simple text 'tags' where each replacement is to be placed, with PSfrag automatically removing these tags from the figure and replacing them with a user specified LaTeX construction, properly aligned, scaled, and/or rotated.
RPMPackage texlive-plain-svn57963-69.lbn36.noarch
Contains files used to build the Plain TeX format, as described in the TeXbook, together with various supporting files (some also discussed in the book).
RPMPackage texlive-pgf-svn65553-69.lbn36.noarch
PGF is a macro package for creating graphics. It is platform- and format-independent and works together with the most important TeX backend drivers, including pdfTeX and dvips. It comes with a user-friendly syntax layer called TikZ. Its usage is similar to pstricks and the standard picture environment. PGF works with plain (pdf-)TeX, (pdf-)LaTeX, and ConTeXt. Unlike pstricks, it can produce either PostScript or PDF output.
RPMPackage texlive-pdfpages-svn65319-69.lbn36.noarch
This package simplifies the inclusion of external multi-page PDF documents in LaTeX documents. Pages may be freely selected and similar to psnup it is possible to put several logical pages onto each sheet of paper. Furthermore a lot of hypertext features like hyperlinks and article threads are provided. The package supports pdfTeX (pdfLaTeX) and VTeX. With VTeX it is even possible to use this package to insert PostScript files, in addition to PDF files.
RPMPackage texlive-pdfescape-svn53082-69.lbn36.noarch
This package implements pdfTeX's escape features (\pdfescapehex, \pdfunescapehex, \pdfescapename, \pdfescapestring) using TeX or e-TeX.
RPMPackage texlive-parallel-svn15878.0-69.lbn36.noarch
Provides a parallel environment which allows two potentially different texts to be typeset in two columns, while maintaining alignment. The two columns may be on the same page, or on facing pages. This arrangement of text is commonly used when typesetting translations, but it can have value when comparing any two texts.
RPMPackage texlive-pagesel-svn56105-69.lbn36.noarch
Selects single pages, ranges of pages, odd pages or even pages for output. The package is part of the oberdiek bundle.
RPMPackage texlive-ntgclass-svn65522-69.lbn36.noarch
The bundle offers versions of the standard LaTeX article and report classes, rewritten to reflect a more European design, and the a4 package, which is better tuned to the shape of a4 paper than is the a4paper class option of the standard classes. The classes include several for article and report requirements, and a letter class. The elements of the bundle were designed by members of the Dutch TeX Users Group NTG.
RPMPackage texlive-newfloat-svn52906-69.lbn36.noarch
The package offers the command \DeclareFloatingEnvironment, which the user may use to define new floating environments which behave like the LaTeX standard foating environments figure and table.
RPMPackage texlive-natbib-svn20668.8.31b-69.lbn36.noarch
The bundle provides a package that implements both author-year and numbered references, as well as much detailed of support for other bibliography use. Also Provided are versions of the standard BibTeX styles that are compatible with natbib-- plainnat, unsrtnat, abbrnat. The bibliography styles produced by custom-bib are designed from the start to be compatible with natbib.
