It can be used by anyone who has access to the TeX +typesetting system. DEPROC is a TeX header (macro package). + + +The DECUS Proceedings have traditionally been published from copy +supplied by the authors, prepared according to rules devised for +typewritten material. The power of the computer typesetting language +TeX has now been applied to this task, and a formatting package, named +DEPROC, has been submitted to the DECUS Program Library for use by +authors who have access to a working TeX system. (The TeX program and +related software, created by Donald Knuth of Stanford, are in the +public domain.) + +The documentation (which was itself produced by the DEPROC package-- +see file DEPROCDOC.TEX) presents the important features of DEPROC and, +through examples, shows how it is to be used. Use of DEPROC, which is +encouraged, will produce the author's work, nicely typeset, in the +standard Proceedings format. There is a general description of how +the package works and of the mechanical requirements for camera copy +of Proceedings articles, which will be created on the author's local +output device. + +No prior knowledge of TeX is required, but authors using DEPROC will +be expected to learn some rudiments, especially if their papers +contain special notation or formats such as tables. A sample table +appears in DEPROCDEV.TEX and DEPROCDEV.FIL, the files used to prepare +a table of output devices which have been interfaced to DEC computers. + + +Questions and suggestions about DEPROC may be sent to + + Barbara N.
