RPMPackage texlive-eso-pic-svn56658-69.lbn36.noarch
The package adds one or more user commands to LaTeX's shipout routine, which may be used to place the output at fixed positions. The grid option may be used to find the correct places.
RPMPackage texlive-epstopdf-svn64439-69.lbn36.noarch
Epstopdf is a Perl script that converts an EPS file to an 'encapsulated' PDF file (a single page file whose media box is the same as the original EPS's bounding box). The resulting file suitable for inclusion by PDFTeX as an image. The script is adapted to run both on Windows and on Unix-alike systems. The script makes use of Ghostscript for the actual conversion to PDF. It assumes Ghostscript version 6.51 or later, and (by default) suppresses its automatic rotation of pages where most of the text is not horizontal. LaTeX users may make use of the epstopdf package, which will run the epstopdf script "on the fly", thus giving the illusion that PDFLaTeX is accepting EPS graphic files.
RPMPackage texlive-enctex-svn34957.0-69.lbn36.noarch
EncTeX is (another) TeX extension, written at the change-file level. It provides means of translating input on the way into TeX. It allows, for example, translation of multibyte sequences, such as utf-8 encoding.
RPMPackage texlive-ec-svn25033.1.0-69.lbn36.noarch
The EC fonts are European Computer Modern Fonts, supporting the complete LaTeX T1 encoding defined at the 1990 TUG conference hold at Cork/Ireland. These fonts are intended to be stable with no changes being made to the tfm files. The set also contains a Text Companion Symbol font, called tc, featuring many useful characters needed in text typesetting, for example oldstyle digits, currency symbols (including the newly created Euro symbol), the permille sign, copyright, trade mark and servicemark as well as a copyleft sign, and many others. Recent releases of LaTeX2e support the EC fonts. The EC fonts supersede the preliminary version released as the DC fonts. The fonts are available in (traced) Adobe Type 1 format, as part of the cm-super bundle. The other Computer Modern-style T1-encoded Type 1 set, Latin Modern, is not actually a direct development of the EC set, and differs from the EC in a number of particulars.
RPMPackage texlive-dvips-svn62387-69.lbn36.x86_64
This package has been withdrawn from CTAN, and bundled into the distributions' package sets. The current sources of dvips may be found in the distribution of dvipsk which forms part of the TeX Live sources.
RPMPackage texlive-dvipng-svn62517-69.lbn36.x86_64
This program makes PNG and/or GIF graphics from DVI files as obtained from TeX and its relatives. Its benefits include: Speed. It offers very fast rendering of DVI as bitmap files, which makes it suitable for generating large amounts of images on-the-fly, as needed in preview-latex, WeBWorK and others; It does not read the postamble, so it can be started before TeX finishes. There is a --follow switch that makes dvipng wait at end-of-file for further output, unless it finds the POST marker that indicates the end of the DVI; Interactive query of options. dvipng can read options interactively through stdin, and all options are usable. It is even possible to change the input file through this interface. Support for PK, VF, PostScript Type1, and TrueType fonts, colour specials, and inclusion of PostScript, PNG, JPEG or GIF images.
RPMPackage texlive-dehyph-svn48599-69.lbn36.noarch
The package provides older hyphenation patterns for the German language. Please note that by default only pdfLaTeX uses these patterns (mainly for backwards compatibility). The older packages ghyphen and gnhyph are now bundled together with dehyph, and are no longer be updated. Both XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX use the current German hyphenation patterns taken from Hyphenation patterns in UTF-8, and using the Experimental hyphenation patterns for the German language package it is possible to make pdfLaTeX use the new German patterns as well.
RPMPackage texlive-currfile-svn64673-69.lbn36.noarch
The package provides macros holding file name information (directory, base name, extension, full name and full path) for files read by LaTeX \input and \include macros; it uses the file hooks provided by the author's filehook. In particular, it restores the parent file name after the trailing \clearpage of an \included file; as a result, the macros may be usefully employed in the page header and footer of the last printed page of such a file. The depth of inclusion is made available, together with the "parent" (including file) and "parents" (all including files to the root of the tree). The package supersedes FiNK.
RPMPackage texlive-ctable-svn38672-69.lbn36.noarch
Provides commands to typeset centered, left- or right-aligned table and (multiple-)figure floats, with footnotes. Instead of an environment, a command with 4 arguments is used; the first is optional and is used for key,value pairs generating variations on the defaults and offering a route for future extensions.
RPMPackage texlive-csquotes-svn64389-69.lbn36.noarch
This package provides advanced facilities for inline and display quotations. It is designed for a wide range of tasks ranging from the most simple applications to the more complex demands of formal quotations. The facilities include commands, environments, and user-definable 'smart quotes' which dynamically adjust to their context. Quotation marks are switched automatically if quotations are nested and they can be adjusted to the current language if the babel package is available. There are additional facilities designed to cope with the more specific demands of academic writing, especially in the humanities and the social sciences. All quote styles as well as the optional active quotes are freely configurable. The package is dependent on e-TeX, and requires the author's etoolbox package.
RPMPackage texlive-courier-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-colortbl-svn64015-69.lbn36.noarch
The package allows rows and columns to be coloured, and even individual cells.
RPMPackage texlive-collection-latexrecommended-svn65512-69.lbn36.noarch
A collection of recommended add-on packages for LaTeX which have widespread use.
RPMPackage texlive-collection-latex-svn63515-69.lbn36.noarch
These packages are either mandated by the core LaTeX team, or very widely used and strongly recommended in practice.
RPMPackage texlive-collection-basic-svn59159-69.lbn36.noarch
These files are regarded as basic for any TeX system, covering plain TeX macros, Computer Modern fonts, and configuration for common drivers; no LaTeX.
RPMPackage texlive-collectbox-svn64967-69.lbn36.noarch
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.
RPMPackage texlive-cmap-svn57640-69.lbn36.noarch
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.
RPMPackage texlive-cm-svn57963-69.lbn36.noarch
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.
RPMPackage texlive-cite-svn36428.5.5-69.lbn36.noarch
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.
RPMPackage texlive-charter-svn15878.0-69.lbn36.noarch
A commercial text font donated for the common good. Support for use with LaTeX is available in freenfss, part of psnfss.
