+\begin{document}
+\maketitle
+
+\noindent These are all the errors and omissions to the manual,
+\LaTeX: {\em A Document Preparation System}, second edition, published
+by Addison-Wesley, reported as of \moddate. Positions in the book are
+indicated by page and line number, where the top line of a page is
+number 1 and the bottom line is number $-1$. A running head and a
+page number are not considered to be lines, but all other lines are.
+Please report any additional errors to The \LaTeX\ Project at
+\texttt{www.latex-project.org/bugs/}\,.

+\erratum{page 25, example of \texttt{verse} environment}
+Replace \verb|{\em all\/}| by \verb|\emph{all}|.
+ \reportedby{Rosemary Bailey}{29 Aug 1994}
+
+\erratum{page 28, first paragraph}
+Not an error, but it would be
+helpful to add the following sentence to the end of that paragraph:
+ ``(If a declaration has arguments, they become additional
+arguments of the corresponding environment's \verb|\begin| command.)''
+
+
+\erratum{page 33, line 10}
+Add \verb|\]| to the list of fragile commands.
+ \reportedby{Rosemary Bailey}{29 Aug 1994}

+Change \verb|{\em ...}| to \verb|\emph{...}|
+ \reportedby{Rosemary Bailey}{29 Aug 1994}
+
+\erratum{page 101}
+This is not an error, but some readers will find it helpful if, in the
+descriptions of \verb|\setlength| and \verb|\addtolength|,
+\verb|\gnat| were replaced by \verb|\parskip|.
+ \reportedby{Ellen Gilkerson}{9 Aug 1994}
+
+\erratum{page 108, lines 7 and 10}
+This is not an error, but it might be easier to understand
+the example if \verb|\len| were replaced by something like \verb|\saved|.
+ \reportedby{Rosemary Bailey}{29 Aug 1994}
+
+\erratum{page 139, lines $-8$ and $-9$}
+
+The funny break between these two lines should be eliminated.
+\reportedby{Malcolm Clark}{9 Aug 1994}
+
+\erratum{page 177, line $-12$}
+
+The \verb|twocolumn| option cannot be used with the \verb|letters|
+class.
+
+\erratum{page 197, lines 7 and 9}
+
+The \verb|figure*| environment is ended by \verb|\end{figure*}|, and
+the \verb|table*| environment is ended by \verb|\end{table*}|.
+\reportedby{Malcolm Clark}{9 Aug 1994}

+\erratum{page 228}
+
+Add a note that, before running a LaTeX2.09 file in compatibility mode
+in LaTeX2e, you should delete the old versions of the auxiliary files.

+These text-producing commands can be used in math mode to put ordinary
+text in a formula. (When the command is used in math mode, its

+environment appears in the argument of any command.''
+\reportedby{Eike Ritter}{May 1996}

+Replace these five lines (which begin ``These commands are overridden'')
+with:
+\begin{itemize} \item[]
+To override a heading on a right-hand page (any page for one-sided
+printing), put a \verb|\markright| after the sectioning command and in

+command immediately after the sectioning command.
+\end{itemize}
+\reportedby{Jerome Breitenbach}{14 Dec 1995}
+
+\erratum{page 182}
+The dimensions
+\verb|\pageheight| and \verb|\pagewidth|
