The TeX program is not available from the AMS. It can be obtained as freeware or shareware, or from commercial TeX vendors. Our list of other TeX resources may also be helpful. CTAN (the Comprehensive TeX Archive Network) is the principal public archive of TeX materials. CTAN is a synchronized worldwide network of hosts and mirror sites which can be accessed either directly by FTP or via a Web browser. Search CTAN by file name or keyword. American Mathematical Society TeX Products For the convenience of authors, the AMS supports a family of TeX-related style file collections, fonts, manuals, and author packages for preparing submissions to AMS publications. Three collections provide basic support for preparation of mathematical publications. Each collection includes a user's guide. AMS-LaTeX v2 AMS-TeX v2.2 AMSFonts v2.2 These three collections are packaged for convenient retrieval by users of several different platforms: PC (DOS and Windows), Macintosh (for Textures, OzTeX or CMacTeX), Unix. Some additional LaTeX utilities are not part of the above collections: amsrefs -- control bibliography style through LaTeX rather than BibTeX snapshot -- create a list of external dependencies for a LaTeX document Author packages Author packages based on AMS-LaTeX and AMS-TeX, and tailored to specific AMS books or journals, are available for most AMS publications. A template showing the basic requirements for the page layout, for all standard-format books, is available as a PostScript or a PDF file. A good way to use the template is to copy it onto a clear transparency for use as an overlay on the formatted output. This template is designed particularly for authors who are not using TeX. Frequently asked questions are addressed in the AMS Author FAQ. Tools for Reference Checking and Linking Authors can access the MR Database to verify and create references that can link to MathSciNet items and original sources. MRef is the free AMS tool for creating standard references with links to MathSciNet. Input is unfielded, meaning that no special input format is required, beyond entering the author name(s) first. Punctuation and formatting (e.g., TeX and HTML) is ignored. MRef returns formatted bibliographic data together with active links to MathSciNet. The formats include MathSciNet, BibTeX, and AMSRefs. MR Lookup is another free tool for referencing and linking available from the AMS. Computer Modern and AMSFonts in PostScript Outline Form Type 1 (PostScript outline) versions are available for general use: all the original Computer Modern fonts selected sizes of the Euler and extra symbols from the AMSFonts These versions were created by Blue Sky Research and Y&Y.
