+
+:Abstract: The `isomath` package provides tools for a mathematical style
+ that conforms to the International Standard ISO 80000-2 and is
+ common in science and technology. It changes the default shape of
+ capital Greek letters to italic, sets up bold italic and
+ sans-serif bold italic math alphabets with Latin and Greek
+ characters, and defines macros for markup of vector, matrix and
+ tensor symbols.

+==================== =================================
+
+The bidirectional text <-> code converter PyLit_ can convert between
+``isomath.sty`` and ``isomath.sty.txt``.
+
+The Docutils_ and pdflatex were used to generate the HTML and PDF
+documentation from the reStructuredText_ sources.
+
+
+Requirements
+============
+
+This package builds on and extends fixmath_ by Walter Schmidt.
+It also requires kvoptions_.
+
+The cmbright_ package is recommended for *sans-serif italic* and *sans-serif
+bold italic* fonts matching with Computer Modern and derivatives.
+
+All required packages are part of TeXLive and MikTeX.
+
+
+Installation
+============
+
+If possible, get this package from your distribution using its installation
+manager.
+
+Otherwise, make sure LaTeX can find the file `isomath.sty`:
+
+* Download and unpack `isomath.zip` or just download `isomath.sty`.
+
+* Copy/Move/Link ``isomath.sty`` to a suitable place in the TDS_ and run
+ ``texhash``, or place it in the current working directory (e.g. for
+ testing).
+
+
+
+Usage
+=====
+
+Load the package and (optionally) change the default ``\vec`` macro with::
+
+ \usepackage{isomath}
+ \renewcommand{\vec}{\vectorsym} % optional
+
+Option description, more examples and usage hints are in the `user
+documentation`_.
