LaTeX templates
Use the latex command to process these templates.
- A letter or other correspondence (letter.ltx)
- An article, research or term paper (article.ltx)
- A book manuscript (manuscript.ltx)
This template requires that you have the LaTeX style file called "manuscript.sty", which most TeX distributions have installed at /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/misc/manuscript.sty.
TeX templates
Use the tex command to process the these templates.
- A cover sheet for sending fax messages (fax.tex)
- A No. 10 mailing envelope (envelope.tex)
- A single mailing label for printing on standard 15-up sheets
(label.tex)
(There is a more advanced LaTeX style for printing many different kinds of shipping and package labels; it's normally installed at /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/labels/).
