Subject: A Solution to "AMS-LaTeX with amsart preloaded"
Date: Sun, 6 Sep 1992 15:38 EDT
Organization: Info-Tex<==>Comp.Text.Tex Gateway
X-Gateway-Source-Info: Mailing List

Further experimentation (and helpful responses from a couple of folks
on this list) reveals that the following is an easy way to generate a
format file for AMS-LaTeX with the amsart documentstyle preloaded.

I'm assuming here that you know how to dump a LaTeX format with the
New Font Selection Scheme installed (this is required to use the
AMS-LaTeX documentstyles amsart and amsbook).  If so, create a file
named amsart.ini, containing the following:

%%% amsart.ini
%%%
%%% This is a file to create a format file for LaTeX with NFSS installed
%%% and the amsart documentstyle preloaded.
%%%
\input lplain
\documentstyle[12pt,amscd]{amsart}

Run initex on this file, and it will dump a format amsart.fmt that
has amsart.sty, amsart12.sty and amscd.sty preloaded.  (You need to
include the optional arguments here because when you use this format,
it notices that amsart.sty is already loaded before it gets to where
it will read in amsart12.sty and amscd.sty.)

If you want to have versions for both 10 point and 12 point, then
name the above amsart12.ini, and create an analogous amsart12.ini.
(Similar remarks apply if you don't want amscd.sty.)

Hi, all.  I am working on a document where I would like to use the \[
\] (displaymath) form.  The problem is that I am using multiline
formulas (unnumbered) with fractions.  I have discovered (through a
bit of experimentation) that anytime I use an eqnarray* with a tab, it
"shrinks" my fractions and makes them unreadble after the tab.

For example, the latex code
\begin{eqnarray*}
\chi^2  = & \frac{(65 - 50)^2}{50} + \frac{(35 - 50)^2}{50} \\
        = & \frac{15^2}{50} + \frac{15^2}{50} \\
        = & \frac{255}{50} + \frac{255}{50} \\
        = & 4.5 + 4.5 \\
        = & 9
\end{eqnarray*}
makes small fractions, and I want full size fractions, like
\[
\chi^2  =  \frac{(65 - 50)^2}{50} + \frac{(35 - 50)^2}{50} 
        =  \frac{15^2}{50} + \frac{15^2}{50} 
        =  \frac{255}{50} + \frac{255}{50} 
        =  4.5 + 4.5 
        =  9
\]

Does anyone know why latex shrinks fractions in \eqnarray after an &?

thanks for the help?

Summary: dicts for TeX, dvips, mac fill dict space

Date: Wed, 9 Sep 1992 18:37:55 GMT

Can anyone offer suggestions for what to do when the dict is full
printing postscript output?  The file I'm trying to print is actually
pretty small, but I requires dictionaries from TeX, (Rokicki's) dvips
(several), and a Mac (LaserPrep) dictionary.  This fills the \dict space
on a LaserWriterIINT.

(The mac generated postscript file which is included in the TeX document 
via psfig/epsf prints fine alone.)

The relavent specs
TeX 3.x
LaTeX 2.09
dvips 5.47

Other than this major problem, I'm very happy with dvips and TeX/LaTeX on
my Unix box.

Thanks in advance.

TeX for Publishers

John Wiley & Sons, New York, New York

This one-day course will provide a practical overview to the use of
TeX in a professional publishing environment. A general introduction
will include the origin and history of TeX, WYSIWYG vs. mark-up
packages, how TeX processes a book, and why authors use TeX.

A detailed discussion of TeX's affect on the publishing process will
cover topics such as author's manuscript, copyediting, conversion to
a chosen package, indexing, art preparation, and reproduction proof.

I want to set up a macro where the presence of an argument will be  
significant, that is

\newcommand\fig[3]{
	\if <argument #1 is null> do this etc.
	\else etc.
	\fi
}


\fig{}{}{this is a phrase}

is different from

\fig{2}{3}{this is a phrase}



How do I test to see if an argument is null?  I tried


\csname the #1 \endcsname but that naturally didn't work since the  
argument is not a counter, register etc..

It certainly shouldn't: TeX's (visible) arithemtic is portable and
should give the same results in all implementations. (There are some
potential exceptions, but they involve arithmetic overflow, which
isn't involved here.)

There are newer versions of sbTeX--try simtel20.army.mil in pd1:<msdos.tex>.

The "sb" products include sbTeX and sbmf. dvieps is not part of sbTeX, right?
Apparently, dvieps is trying to create output for a 9-pin epson FX-85 type 
printer. This printer has 240 dots per inch (actually, 240x216). So, 
dvieps wants fonts in diretories 240, 263, 288, etc., corresponding to 
\magstep 0, \magstephalf, \magstep 1, etc.  The "1440" is the older naming
scheme--divide by 5 and get 288.  It appears from the error message that
you do not have the correct fonts loaded for this printer (you have the
usual fonts for a 300dpi laser printer). 

Either get sbmf (metafont is not for beginners--look for the mf-help file
recently posted to this newsgroup).  Some folks will probably tell you to
get emTeX (another very nice TeX for OS/2 and MSDOS).  sbTeX is a good 
choice also, but emTeX is more complete. Its drivers can scale your 300 dpi
fonts, but the ouput on an FX-85 will be quite poor compared with the output
using 240x216 dpi fonts.  Finally, if you love to download pk files (several
megs), you can find 240dpi fonts (the emTeX dist at ftp-os2.nmsu.edu has some
if I recall correctly, and e-math.ams.com has AMSFonts in 240x216).

Am I the only one who finds the non-increasing LaTeX version numbers

Which will give a differently incorrect page number in some cases.

That looks real ugly.  According to p 323 in the TeX book, the recommended
way is to use the following:

$65^\circ$ (or 65$^\circ$, for that matter).

I completely fail to understand your problem. Doesn't \footnote allow

The way I do it is to export the xfig as EEPIC macros, and then if the text
needs modifying, such as maths mode, it is a simple edit of the EEPIC file.

                                  ARRAY
                                  -----
The ARRAY package include the complete set of files associated with Frank
Mittelbach's <PZF5HZ@RUIPC1E.BITNET> modifications to and new
implementation of the array and tabular environments of LaTeX.  The files
in this package reflect the version 2.1b (6 July 1992) release.

The special merits of this implementation are further options to format
columns and the fact that fragile LaTeX commands don't have to be
\protect'ed any more within those environments.  David Carlisle contributed
many useful additions to the `array' style options: alignment on a decimal
point, a customizable version of `\hline', implicit delimiters, the
`tabularx' and `longtable' environments.

To retrieve the entire set of 10 files in 13 parts, please include:
 SENDME ARRAY
in the body of a mail message to FILESERV@SHSU.BITNET (FILESERV@SHSU.edu).
If, for some reason, you should only require a specific file from this
distribution, such as ARRAY.ARRAY_BUG, please include the command
 SENDME ARRAY.ARRAY_BUG
in the body of a mail message to FILESERV.  For anonymous ftp retrieval,
the individual files, as well as a ZIP archive, ARRAY-V2_1B.ZIP, are
available in the [FILESERV.ARRAY] directory on Niord.SHSU.edu
(192.92.115.8).

Try pkedit - part of the emtex distribution.  It is simple to use, and it
works.
(Sorry to post this obvious answer, but my mailer doesn't recognise your
address.)
