The LaTex Graphics Companion
Complementing The LaTeX Companion, this new graphics companion addresses one of the most common needs among users of the LaTeX typesetting system: the incorporation of graphics into text. It provides the first full description of the standard LaTeX color and graphics packages, and shows how you can combine TeX and PostScript capabilities to produce beautifully illustrated pages. You will learn how to incorporate graphic files into a LaTeX document, program technical diagrams using several different languages, and achieve special effects with fragments of embedded PostScript. Furthermore, you'll find detailed descriptions of important packages like Xy-pic, PSTricks, and METAPOST; the dvips dvi to PostScript driver; and Ghostscript.
TeX Unbound
LaTeX is the premier software system used for presenting scientific and technical information on the printed page, being the system of choice for writers in mathematics, the sciences, computer science, and engineering. It is also increasingly used by nontechnical writers interested in superior printing and document presentation. Authors wishing to take full advantage of this powerful software often have questions that go beyond how to use the basic style files or commands. For example, how can you integrate any of the high quality commercial fonts that are available? How can you typeset mathematics in anything other than the original TeX fonts? How can you generate complex graphics for use in a LaTeX document? What Internet resources are available to a LaTeX author? How can you connect TeX and LaTeX to everyday office software? In general, writers need clear, accurate, and concise instructions, solutions, and explanations for common problems and situations. This unique book provides this assistance, containing many examples and summaries of procedures to follow. TeX Unbound will be the reference of choice for every writer wishing to express technical information.
