Paper submissions to journals are usually accompanied by a cover letter. This package provides a LaTeX class and a template for such a cover letter with the following main features:

• minimalistic design,

• custom image,

• pre-defined commands for journal name, author, date, etc.

• many macros contained in this package speed up the process of preparing the necessary ingredients for the cover letter;

• macros for recommending up to three reviewers and editors;

• ORCID logo and link to the submitting author's ORCID page;

• controls for adding a ``conflict of interest'' statement and declaration;

• custom greeting;

• predefined valedictions for different types of submissions.

Modern native UTF-8 engines such as XeTeX and LuaTeX need hyphenation patterns in UTF-8 format, whereas older systems require hyphenation patterns in the 8-bit encoding of the font in use (such encodings are codified in the LaTeX scheme with names like OT1, T2A, TS1, OML, LY1, etc). The present package offers a collection of conversions of existing patterns to UTF-8 format, together with converters for use with 8-bit fonts in older systems.

This Guix-specific package provides hyphenation patterns for all languages supported in TeX Live. It is a strict super-set of codehyphen-base package and should be preferred to it whenever a package would otherwise depend on hyph-utf8.

The package supports a number of features of the Latin Modern fonts which are not easily accessible via the default (La)TeX support. In particular, the package supports the use of the various styles of digits available, small-caps and upright italic shapes, and alternative weights and widths. It also supports variable width typewriter and the quotation font.

By default, the package uses proportional oldstyle digits and variable width typewriter but this can be changed by passing appropriate options to the package. The package also supports using (for example) different styles of digits within a document so it is possible to use proportional oldstyle digits by default, say, but tabular lining digits within a particular table.

AMS-TeX is a TeX macro package based on Plain TeX: it provides many features for producing more professional-looking maths formulas with less burden on authors.

This is the final archival distribution of AMS-TeX. AMS-TeX is no longer supported by the AMS, nor is it used by the AMS publishing program. The AMS does not recommend creating any new documents using AMS-TeX; this distribution will be left on CTAN to facilitate processing of legacy documents and as a historical record of a pioneering TeX macro collection that played a key role in popularizing TeX and revolutionizing mathematics publishing. AMS-TeX is the historical basis of amslatex, which should now be used to prepare submissions for the AMS.

The PSNFSS collection includes a set of files that provide a complete working setup of the LaTeX font selection scheme (NFSS2) for use with common PostScript fonts. The base set of text fonts covered by PSNFSS includes the AvantGarde, Bookman, Courier, Helvetica, New Century Schoolbook, Palatino, Symbol, Times Roman and Zapf Dingbats fonts. In addition, the fonts Bitstream Charter and Adobe Utopia are covered. Separate packages are provided to load each font for use as the main text font. The package helvet allows Helvetica to be loaded with its size scaled to something more appropriate for use as a Sans-Serif font to match Times, while pifont provides the means to select single glyphs from symbol fonts. The bundle as a whole is part of the LaTeX required set of packages.

MonTeX provides Mongolian and Manju support for the TeX and LaTeX community. It provides all necessary characters for writing standard Mongolian in Cyrillic and Classical (aka Traditional or Uighur) writing, and Manju as well as transliterated Tibetan texts, for which purpose a number of additional characters was created.

In MonTeX, both Mongolian and Manju are entered in romanized form. The retransliteration (from Latin input to Mongolian and Manju output) is completely realized in TeX and Metafont so that no external preprocessor is required. Please note that most of the enhanced functions of MonTeX require a working e-LaTeX environment. This is especially true when compiling documents with Mongolian or Manju as the main document language. It is recommended to choose pdfLaTeX as the resulting PDF files are truly portable. Vertical text generated by MonTeX is not supported in DVI.

TeXsis is a TeX macro package which provides useful features for typesetting research papers and related documents. For example, it includes support specifically for:

• automatic numbering of equations, figures, tables and references;

• simplified control of type sizes, line spacing, footnotes, running headlines and footlines, and tables of contents, figures and tables;

• specialized document formats for research papers, preprints and e-prints, conference proceedings, theses, books, referee reports, letters, and memoranda;

• simplified means of constructing an index for a book or thesis;

• easy to use double column formatting;

• specialized environments for lists, theorems and proofs, centered or non-justified text, and listing computer code;

• specialized macros for easily constructing ruled tables.

TeXsis was originally developed for physicists, but others may also find it useful. It is completely compatible with Plain TeX.

This (Perl) script displays the definitions of (La)TeX command sequences/macros. Various options allow the selection of the used class as well as package files and other factors that may influence the definition (before/after the preamble, inside an environment, ...). The script creates a temporary TeX file which is then compiled using (La)TeX to find the \meaning of the command sequence. The result is formatted and presented to the user. Length or number command sequences (dimensions, \char..., count registers, ...) are recognized and the contained value is also shown (using \the). Special definitions like protected macros are also recognized and the underlying macros are shown as well. The script will show plain TeX definitions by default. LaTeX and ConTeXt are supported, including flavours (pdf(La)TeX, Lua(La)TeX, Xe(La)TeX, ...). The flavour can be selected using a command line option, or via the script name: latexdef will use LaTeX as default, etc.

The TUD-Script bundle provides both classes and packages in order to create LaTeX documents in the corporate design of the Technische Universitat Dresden. It bases on the KOMA-Script bundle.

The bundle offers:

• the three document classes tudscrartcl, tudscrreprt, and tudscrbook;

• the class tudscrposter for creating posters;

• the package tudscrsupervisor providing environments and macros to create tasks, evaluations and notices for scientific theses;

• the package tudscrfonts, which makes the corporate design fonts of the Technische Universitat Dresden available for LaTeX standard classes and KOMA-Script classes;

• the package fix-tudscrfonts, which provides the same fonts to additional corporate design classes not related to TUD-Script;

• the package tudscrcomp, which simplifies the switch to TUD-Script from external corporate design classes,

• the package mathswap for swapping math delimiters within numbers (similar to ionumbers),

• and the package twocolfix for fixing the positioning bug of headings in twocolumn layout.

The Cyclop typeface was designed in the 1920s at the workshop of Warsaw type foundry Odlewnia Czcionek J. Idzkowski i S-ka. This sans serif typeface has a highly modulated stroke so it has high typographic contrast. The vertical stems are much heavier then horizontal ones. Most characters have thin rectangles as additional counters giving the unique shape of the characters. The lead types of Cyclop typeface were produced in slanted variant at sizes 8-48 pt. It was heavily used for heads in newspapers and accidents prints. Typesetters used Cyclop in the inter-war period, during the occupation in the underground press. The typeface was used until the beginnings of the offset print and computer typesetting era. Nowadays it is hard to find the metal types of this typeface.

The fonts are distributed in the Type1 and OpenType formats along with the files necessary for use these fonts in TeX and LaTeX including encoding definition files: T1 (ec), T5 (Vietnamese), OT4, QX, texnansi and nonstandard ones (IL2 for Czech fonts).
