Since I am not a Texpert, could someone tell me if a style file exists that
adds to LaTeX the following capabilities:
- Invisible Fonts, i.e. {\invisible text} shouldn't print. I know
this feature exists in slitex, but not in my article environment.
- Some journals require the final submission to have endnotes
instead of footnotes. Is there a LaTeX style file that creates
endnotes?
- Finally, although I realize it is ugly, are there large-font
version of article, e.g. art18?
Thanks for any information.

(It should be!) Of the few I've seen, this is the one I think is best, even if not ``perfect''. It's got enough documentation so that a non-TeXpert can hack some parameters to get slightly different endnote styles. *** *** While I'm here, does anybody know where I can find the style file to print a large light gray diagonal ``DRAFT'' or ``CONFIDENTIAL'' across pages? I'm using Tom Rokicki's dvips to generate my output. *** ***

if you use a PostScript printer, and a decent dvi to PS (such as
dvips), try using a \special command to change the colour to white
temporarily. then you dont need special fonts.....

`the' style file? I can offer _a_ solution: I just include the
following as a new header file when I run dvips. We have a shell script with
a -draft option, which allows other words to be used:
-draft) shift;
if test $# = 1 ; then
DVIFLAGS="$DVIFLAGS -h draft.pro"
else
case $1 in
-*) DVIFLAGS="$DVIFLAGS -h draft.pro" ;;
*) WORD=$1
DVIFLAGS="$DVIFLAGS -h /usr/tmp/dr$$.pro"
sed "s/(DRAFT)/($WORD)/" < $TEX_HOME/tex/PSery/draft.pro > /usr/tmp/dr$$.pro
shift;;
esac
fi;;
%% Put the word "DRAFT" (or a specified word) on each page of a postscript
%% document.
