The L AT E X3 Project
Frank G. Mittelbach, Chris Rowley · 1993
This is a brief sketch of the L ATEX3 Project: background, history, principles, aims and functionality. The new version of L ATEX is, like the current version, a freely available system for automated processing of structured documents, formatting them to the highest typographic standards by use of the TEX typesetting software. Although its uses include a very large range of published documents, the importance of its unsurpassed ability to format mathematical formulas will not be forgotten in producing the new version. It is being produced by an international group of volunteers under the technical direction of Frank Mittelbach.
