THANX! > > steve The complete set of documentation for TeX, MetaFont, etc., is included in the standard TeX distribution, in the directory TeX3.0/TeXdoc. Otherwise, ask your local bookstore to order the TeXbook by Donald E. Knuth, ISBN 0-201-13448-9. You might also want to look for TeX for the Impatient by Paul W. Abrahams, ISBN 0-201-51375-7. (By the way, if you've ever wondered, the 0 means the book's in English and 201 is the code for Addison-Wesley.) Steve Graham graham@isis.ee.washington.edu
