This outstanding introductory primer demystifies and explains T EX,
an advanced and widely popular typesetting and page make-up system
that is especially designed to facilitate scientific and technical
publishing. The TEX system is highly versatile, designed for use on
over 50 different types of personal, mini-, and mainframe
computers. The book immediately provides the reader with sufficient
information to begin the majority of tasks which he or she most
likely wishes to tackle. Accessibly written at an introductory
level, the book explains how high-quality results can be obtained
by someone with only a little T EX background. In a straightforward
manner, it details why T EX approaches its subject in the way it
does, and provides the "context" into which it fits. Special
emphasis is placed on document structure and practical work. In
fact, not only is this book a "primer," but it is a "plain" T EX
primer. Wherever T EX is running, it comes with at least one basic
style definition, called "plain." Plain T EX is the common starting
point for T EX users and can be extended or modified to suit
individual needs. Thus, with the aid of this book, scientists and
researchers preparing their own books and papers, or technical
typists used to the conventions and jargon of their field, will
find little difficulty in adopting T EX's approach. Students and
professionals involved in document preparation or desk-top
publishing will also find this an extremely useful volume.
