Produktbeschreibung
The intention of this primer is to introduce T[EX and to provide the reader with sufficient information to get started with the majority of tasks which he or she wishes to tackle. It explains why T[EX approaches its subject in the way it does, and provides the "context" into which it fits. Plain T[EX is the common starting point for T[EX users and can be extended or modified to suit individual needs.
This outstanding introductory primer demystifies and explains TeX, the widely popular typesetting and page make-up system that is especially designed to facilitate scientific and technical publishing. Accessibility written at an introductory level, the book explains how high-quality results can be obtained by someone with only a little TeX background. In a straightforward manner, it details why TeX 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. 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 TeX's approach. Students and professionals involved in document preparation or desk-top publishing will also find this an extremely useful volume. 64 illustrations.
