\Title{Formatting Information} \title{formatting information} A beginner's introduction to typesetting with LATEX Peter Flynn Silmaril Consultants Textual Therapy Division v.3.4 November 2003 Acknowledgments Thanks to all the people who sent me corrections and suggestions for improvement or additions to earlier versions. As usual, the problem has been what to leave out, not what to include. Some of the suggestions were well-intentioned but would have turned the book into a higher-level mathematics treatise. One of my objectives was to omit all maths except for a short example, as all the other books on TEX and LATEX already cover mathematical typesetting in finer and better detail than I am capable of. Some of the suggestions would have taken me down pathways I prefer not to tread. Large software corporations are full of well-meaning, hard-working individuals who genuinely believe that their products make life easier for users. Unfortunately, experience shows that this is often only true in the first hot flush of using a new program: in the long run the winners are those whose data is secure, accessible, and reusable; whose documents can be reformatted at any time, on any platform, without penalty, financial or otherwise. I make no apology for recommending Unix-like systems running LATEX as the platform of choice for document-processing applications — if you have a choice — and I'm happy to be able to include the Apple Macintosh in that family. Unfortunately, there are those whose circumstances at home or work require them to use something else, and I am pleased that LATEX can help them by being available on their platform as well. I have incorporated all the remaining suggestions except where it would materially distort the objective of being a beginner's booklet. A special thank-you goes to Barbara Beeton, Karl Berry, and William Adams for their editorial corrections and contributions, finding all kinds of mistakes from simple slips of the finger to cultural differences to over-complicated ways of explaining things. It is very difficult for people who write technical documentation to remember how they struggled to learn what has now become a familiar system. So much of what we do is second nature, and a lot of it actually has nothing to do with the software, but more with the way in which we view and approach information, and the general level of knowledge of computing. If I have obscured something by making unreasonable assumptions about your knowledge, please let me know so that I can correct it. Peter Flynn is author of The HTML Handbook and Understanding SGML and XML Tools, and editor of The XML FAQ. Technical note The text for the March 2003 online edition was edited into a customized version of DocBook from the original private format (Read The Fine Markup Language (RTFML)). All subsequent work has been done in DocBook with a customization layer for typographics. XSLT was used to generate HTML (for the Web and plain-text versions) and LATEX (for PDF and PostScript). The November 2003 edition was published in TUGboat1.

  • The Verdana Font Package∗
    The verdana font package∗ Walter Daems ([email protected]) January 9, 2016 1 Introduction This package is only useful when using standard LATEX. If you use XELATEXor LuaLATEX, access to fonts has been greatly simplified. In that case, you don't need this package. 'Verdana' is a common font that can be downloaded from: http: //prdownloads.sourceforge.net/corefonts/verdan32.exe?download The font is readily available on machines with a Microsoft oper- ating system. The wrapper provides a T1 encoded font. The wrapper would be most straightforward weren't it for the ligature problems that Verdana exhibits. The core of the problem is that over the years, Microsoft removed several glyphs from the font, including the ligatures ’fi’ and ’fl’ (on the T1 octal positions 34 and 35). The font version 2006 (as it can be downloaded from sourceforge), still has the ligatures. In version 2008 they have been removed. In version 2010, even more glyphs have been removed. The reason for removing these glyphs is unclear to me. To overcome these issues, the wrapper provides an option 'nofligs' (shorthand for 'no f-ligatures'), that disables the invo- cation of these ligatures involving f. ∗This document corresponds to verdana 1.2b, dated 2016/01/08. 1 If a testpage, or a testfont page generated with TEX shows miss- ing ligatures, then just use the options 'nofligs'. Most standard TEX installations do embed fonts in PDF files. How- ever, in case your PDF document does not contain embedded fonts, make sure, when handing over a PDF document contain- ing Verdana to your publishing company, to check wether their version of Verdana contains the fi and fl glyphs.

  • About Basictex-2021
    About BasicTeX-2021 Richard Koch January 2, 2021 1 Introduction Most TeX distributions for Mac OS X are based on TeX Live, the reference edition of TeX produced by TeX User Groups across the world. Among these is MacTeX, which installs the full TeX Live as well as front ends, Ghostscript, and other utilities | everything needed to use TeX on the Mac. To obtain it, go to http://tug.org/mactex. 2 Basic TeX BasicTeX (92 MB) is an installation package for Mac OS X based on TeX Live 2021. Unlike MacTeX, this package is deliberately small. Yet it contains all of the standard tools needed to write TeX documents, including TeX, LaTeX, pdfTeX, MetaFont, dvips, MetaPost, and XeTeX. It would be dangerous to construct a new distribution by going directly to CTAN or the Web and collecting useful style files, fonts and so forth. Such a distribution would run into support issues as the creators move on to other projects. Luckily, the TeX Live install script has its own notion of \installation packages" and collections of such packages to make \installation schemes." BasicTeX is constructed by running the TeX Live install script and choosing the \small" scheme. Thus it is a subset of the full TeX Live with exactly the TeX Live directory structure and configuration scripts. Moreover, BasicTeX contains tlmgr, the TeX Live Manager software introduced in TeX Live 2008, which can install additional packages over the network. So it will be easy for users to add missing packages if needed. Since it is important that the install package come directly from the standard TeX Live distribution, I'm going to explain exactly how I installed TeX to produce the install package.

  • Installation
    APPENDIX A Installation In case you do not already have a LATEX installation, in Sections A.1 and A.2, we describe how to install LATEX on your computer, a PC or a Mac. The installation is much easier if you obtain TEX Live 2007 (or later) from the TEX Users Group, TUG (see Section E.2). It contains both the TEX implementations we discuss. No installation is given for UNIX computers. The attraction of UNIX to its users is the incredibly large number of options, from the UNIX dialect, to the shell, the editor, and so on. A typical UNIX user downloads the code and compiles the system. This is obviously beyond the scope of this book. Nevertheless, TEX Live 2007 (or later) from the TEX Users Group supplies the compiled (binaries) of LATEX for a number of UNIX variants. First read Chapter 1, so that in this Appendix you recognize the terminology we introduce there. I will assume that you become sufficiently familiar with your LATEX distribution to be able to perform the editing cycle with the sample documents. 490 Appendix A Installation A.1 LATEX on a PC On a PC, most mathematicians use MiKTeX and the editor WinEdt. So it seems appro- priate that we start there. A.1.1 Installing MiKTeX If you made a donation to MiKTeX or if you have the TEX Live 2007 (or later) from the TEX Users Group, then you have a CD or DVD with the MiKTeX installer. Installation then is in one step and very fast. In case you do not have this CD or DVD, we show how to install from the Internet.

Email enquiries about UKTUG to uktug- [email protected]. –1– I Editorial This is the first edition of Baskerville entirely devoted to a single topic. It arose from discussion within your committee of what we might reasonably do which helps our members, but which isn’t already done elsewhere. We hope it will prove useful to you. We would welcome comments on the utility or otherwise of the article, and on ways it could be improved; letters to the editor are always welcome. Future uses of this edition could include inserting it into a ‘new members pack’, publishing updated questions, and possibly republishing the whole thing. This edition of Baskerville was processed using a testing copy of the December 1994 release of LATEX2ε, but none of the answers to questions assume that that version is available (it’s scheduled for public release in the middle of December).

  • A Gentle Introduction to Tex: a Manual for Self-Study
    A Gentle Introduction to TEX A Manual for Self-study Michael Doob Department of Mathematics The University of Manitoba Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada R3T 2N2 [email protected] [email protected] . Introduction First the bad news: TEX is a large and complicated program that goes to extraordinary lengths to produce attractive typeset material. This very complication can cause unexpected things to happen at times. Now the good news: straightforward text is very easy to typeset using TEX. So it’s possible to start with easier text and work up to more complicated situations. The purpose of this manual is to start from the very beginning and to move towards these more complicated situations. No previous knowledge of TEX is assumed. By proceed- ing a section at a time, greater varieties of text can be produced. Here are a few suggestions: there are some exercises in each section. Be sure and do them! The only way to learn TEX is by using it. Better yet, experiment on your own; try to make some variations on the exercises. There is no way that you can damage the TEX program with your experiments. You can find a complete answer to most exercises by looking at the TEX source file that was used to produce this document. You’ll notice that there are references in the right margin to The TEXbook1. When you feel that you want more information on a topic, that’s where to look. Incidentally, there are a few fibs that appear in this manual; they are used to hide com- plications (I look at this as something like poetic license).
