RPMPackage texlive-pslatex-svn57434-69.lbn36.noarch
A small package that makes LaTeX default to 'standard' PostScript fonts. It is basically a merger of the times and the (obsolete) mathptm packages from the psnfss suite. You must have installed standard LaTeX and the psnfss PostScript fonts to use this package. The main novel feature is that the pslatex package tries to compensate for the visual differences between the Adobe fonts by scaling Helvetica by 90%, and 'condensing' Courier (i.e. scaling horizontally) by 85%. The package is supplied with a (unix) shell file for a 'pslatex' command that allows standard LaTeX documents to be processed, without needing to edit the file. Note that current psnfss uses a different technique for scaling Helvetica, and treats Courier as a lost cause (there are better free fixed-width available now, than there were when pslatex was designed). As a result, pslatex is widely considered obsolete.
RPMPackage texlive-polyglossia-svn65792-69.lbn36.noarch
This package provides a complete Babel replacement for users of LuaLaTeX and XeLaTeX; it relies on the fontspec package, version 2.0 at least.
RPMPackage texlive-placeins-svn19848.2.2-69.lbn36.noarch
Defines a \FloatBarrier command, beyond which floats may not pass; useful, for example, to ensure all floats for a section appear before the next \section command.
RPMPackage texlive-picture-svn54867-69.lbn36.noarch
There are macro and environment arguments that expect numbers that will internally be multiplied by \unitlength. This package extends the syntax of these arguments, so that dimensions with calculation support may be used for these arguments.
RPMPackage texlive-pdftexcmds-svn55777-69.lbn36.noarch
LuaTeX provides most of the commands of pdfTeX 1.40. However, a number of utility functions are not available. This package tries to fill the gap and implements some of the missing primitives using Lua.
RPMPackage texlive-pdftex-svn64690-69.lbn36.x86_64
An extension of TeX which can be configured to directly generate PDF documents instead of DVI. All current free TeX distributions including TeX live, MacTeX and MiKTeX include pdfTeX (Plain TeX) and pdfLaTeX (LaTeX). ConTeXt was designed around use of pdfTeX (though it is now migrating towards LuaTeX).
RPMPackage texlive-pdfmanagement-testphase-svn66532-69.lbn36.noarch
This is a temporary package, which is used during a test phase to load the new PDF management code of LaTeX. The new PDF management code offers backend independant interfaces to central PDF dictionaries, tools to create annotations, form Xobjects, to embed files, and to handle PDF standards. The code is provided, during a testphase, as an independant package to allow users and package authors to safely test the code. At a later stage it will be integrated into the LaTeX kernel (or in parts into permanent support packages), and the current testphase bundle will be removed.
RPMPackage texlive-pdflscape-svn64851-69.lbn36.noarch
The package adds PDF support to the landscape environment of package lscape, by setting the PDF /Rotate page attribute. Pages with this attribute will be displayed in landscape orientation by conforming PDF viewers.
RPMPackage texlive-pdfcolmk-svn52912-69.lbn36.noarch
The package used to provide macros that emulated the 'colour stack' functionality of dvips. The colour stack deals with colour manipulations when asynchronous events (like page-breaking) occur. At the time the package was written, pdfTeX did not (yet) have such a stack, though dvips had had one for a long time. This package was an experimental solution to the problem, and worked best with pdfeTeX. For current releases of pdfTeX (later than version 1.40.0, released in 2007), this package is not needed, since "real" colour stacks are available. The present pdfcolmk is therefore just an empty stub that does nothing at all, just in case there are still documents that reference it. The documented source of the original package is still available at the github repository.
RPMPackage texlive-parskip-svn58358-69.lbn36.noarch
Simply changing \parskip and \parindent leaves a layout that is untidy; this package (though it is no substitute for a properly- designed class) helps alleviate this untidiness.
RPMPackage texlive-paralist-svn43021-69.lbn36.noarch
Provides enumerate and itemize environments that can be used within paragraphs to format the items either as running text or as separate paragraphs with a preceding number or symbol. Also provides compacted versions of enumerate and itemize.
RPMPackage texlive-palatino-svn61719-69.lbn36.noarch
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).
RPMPackage texlive-oberdiek-svn64463-69.lbn36.noarch
The bundle comprises packages to provide: aliascnt: 'alias counters'; bmpsize: get bitmap size and resolution data; centernot: a horizontally-centred \not symbol; chemarr: extensible chemists' reaction arrows; classlist: record information about document class(es) used; colonequals: poor man's mathematical relation symbols; dvipscol: dvips colour stack management; engord: define counter-printing operations producing English ordinals; eolgrab: collect arguments delimited by end of line; flags: setting and clearing flags in bit fields and converting the bit field into a decimal number; holtxdoc: extra documentation macros; hypbmsec: bookmarks in sectioning commands; hypcap: anjusting anchors of captions; hypgotoe: experimental package for links to embedded files; hyphsubst: substitute hyphenation patterns; ifdraft: switch for option draft; iflang: provides expandable checks for the current language; pdfcolfoot: using pdfTeX's color stack for footnotes; pdfcolparallel: fixes colour problems in package parallel; pdfcolparcolumns: fixes colour problems in package parcolumns; pdfcrypt: setting PDF encryption; pdfrender: control PDF rendering modes; protecteddef: define a command that protected against expansion; resizegather: automatically resize overly large equations; rotchiffre: performs simple rotation cyphers; scrindex: redefines environment 'theindex' of package 'index', if a class from KOMA-Script is loaded; setouterhbox: set \hbox in outer horizontal mode; settobox: getting box sizes; stackrel: extensions of the \stackrel command; stampinclude: selects the files for \include by inspecting the timestamp of the .aux file(s); tabularht: tabulars with height specification; tabularkv: key value interface for tabular parameters; telprint: print German telephone numbers; thepdfnumber: canonical numbers for use in PDF files and elsewhere; twoopt: commands with two optional arguments; Each of the packages is represented by two files, a .dtx (documented source) and a PDF file; the .ins file necessary for installation is extracted by running the .dtx file with Plain TeX.
RPMPackage texlive-notoccite-svn18129.0-69.lbn36.noarch
If you have \cite commands in \section-like commands, or in \caption, the citation will also appear in the table of contents, or list of whatever. If you are also using an unsrt- like bibliography style, these citations will come at the very start of the bibliography, which is confusing. This package suppresses the effect.
RPMPackage texlive-ncntrsbk-svn61719-69.lbn36.noarch
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).
RPMPackage texlive-multido-svn18302.1.42-69.lbn36.noarch
The package provides the \multido command, which was originally designed for use with PSTricks. Fixed-point arithmetic is used when working on the loop variable, so that the package is equally applicable in graphics applications like PSTricks as it is with the more common integer loops.
RPMPackage texlive-mptopdf-svn61520-69.lbn36.noarch
The mptopdf script does standalone conversion from mpost to PDF, using the supp-* and syst-* files. They also allow native MetaPost graphics inclusion in LaTeX (via pdftex.def) and ConTeXt. They can be used independently of the rest of ConTeXt, yet are maintained as part of it. So in TeX Live we pull them out to this separate package for the benefit of LaTeX users who do not install the rest of ConTeXt. This can be found on CTAN in macros/pdftex/graphics.
RPMPackage texlive-modes-svn61719-69.lbn36.noarch
The modes file collects all known Metafont modes for printing or display devices, of whatever printing technology. Special provision is made for write-white printers, and a 'landscape' mode is available, for making suitable fonts for printers with pixels whose aspect is non-square. The file also provides definitions that make \specials identifying the mode in Metafont's GF output, and put coding information and other Xerox-world information in the TFM file.
RPMPackage texlive-minitoc-svn61719-69.lbn36.noarch
The minitoc package allows you to add mini-tables-of-contents (minitocs) at the beginning of every chapter, part or section. There is also provision for mini-lists of figures and of tables. At the part level, they are parttocs, partlofs and partlots. If the type of document does not use chapters, the basic provision is section level secttocs, sectlofs and sectlots. The package has provision for language-specific configuration of its own "fixed names", using .mld files (analagous to babel .ldf files that do that job for LaTeX"s own fixed names).
RPMPackage texlive-mathspec-svn42773-69.lbn36.noarch
The mathspec package provides an interface to typeset mathematics in XeLaTeX with arbitrary text fonts using fontspec as a backend. The package is under development and later versions might to be incompatible with this version, as this version is incompatible with earlier versions. The package requires at least version 0.9995 of XeTeX.
