Hi everybody!
I am wondering if someone has written some postscript
macros which can be called from tex/latex using \special
in order to include a heading, or a paragraph
of text in a box (with boundaries) such that
the box can be filled to a specified gray level.
For example, I want to have following kinds of boxes:
---------------------------------
| My heading in a filled box |
---------------------------------
or,
-----------------------------
| A paragraph of text which |
|I want to be surrounded by |
|a box filled to a certain |
|level of grayness. I don't |
|want to have to specify the |
|size of the box. I would |
|like postscript/latex/tex |
|to figure out the size of |
|the box depending on the |
|amount of text, the point |
|size, textwidth etc. |
------------------------------
Also, it would be great if one could have boxes with rounded corners,
and reverse video (i.e. unfilled/outlined letters in a filled box).
Please send me a message if you have any macros like this.
I would appreciate getting a copy of such macros if you have any.
Thanks a lot!
