1 INTRODUCTION
==============
This LaTeX package allows to compute the mass of a printed version of a
document, useful e.g. to determine the postage when sending it by snail mail.
Warning/Disclaimer: The mass of (printer's) ink has to be added and that
of envelope, address sticker, stamps,... Thus this is only an estimation
without guarantee - do not sue me, if you have got to pay excess postage!

and the latest version of this license is in
https://www.latex-project.org/lppl.txt
and version 1.3c or later is part of all distributions of
LaTeX version 2005-12-01 or later.
2 DOWNLOAD
==========
"papermas" is available on CTAN:
https://ctan.org/pkg/papermas
Also a ZIP file is provided that contains the files:
the manual (papermas.pdf), the example (papermas-example.tex),
the compiled example (papermas-example.pdf),
driver (papermas.drv), papermas.dtx,
installation file (papermas.ins),
the style file (papermas.sty),
and this README, already sorted in a TDS tree:
https://mirror.ctan.org/install/macros/latex/contrib/papermas.tds.zip
3 INSTALLATION
==============
Installation with ZIP file in TDS format
----------------------------------------
The ZIP file "papermas.tds.zip" contains the files
sorted in a TDS tree. Thus you can directly unpack the
ZIP file inside a TDS tree.
See https://ctan.org/TDS-guidelines for an explanation
of TDS.
Example:
cd /...somewhere.../texmf
unzip /...downloadpath.../papermas.tds.zip
Do not forget to refresh the file name database of this
TDS tree.
Example:
texhash /...somewhere.../texmf
Manual installation
-------------------
a) Download the papermas files from CTAN.
If necessary, unpack them.
b) Generate the package and driver files:
tex papermas.dtx
c) Install the file "papermas.sty" in your TDS tree:
cp papermas.sty TDS:tex/latex/papermas/
Replace "TDS:" by the prefix of your TDS tree
(texmf directory).
d) Create the documentation, if necessary, e.g.
pdflatex papermas.dtx
makeindex -s gind.ist papermas.idx
pdflatex papermas.dtx
makeindex -s gind.ist papermas.idx
pdflatex papermas.dtx
e) Update the databases if necessary, e.g. for TeXLive
texhash or mktexlsr.
f) Create the papermas-example.pdf, if necessary, e.g.
pdflatex papermas-example.tex
pdflatex papermas-example.tex
pdflatex papermas-example.tex
g) Copy the documentation files to
"TDS:doc/latex/papermas/":
README, papermas.pdf, papermas-example.tex,
papermas-example.pdf.
4 ADDITIONAL PACKAGES
=====================
papermas loads other packages:
- kvoptions
- intcalc
which again load other packages
(see the result of the \listfiles command in the log-file
of the example).
5 PACKAGE COMPATIBILITY
=======================
papermas should be loaded quite late.

7 BUG REPORTS
=============
A bug report should contain:
* Comprehensive problem description. This includes error or
warning messages.
* \errorcontextlines=\maxdimen can be added in the
TeX code to get more information in TeX error messages.
* Minimal test file that shows the problem,
but does not contain any unnecessary packages and code.
* Used drivers/programs.
* Version information about used packages and programs.
* If you are using LaTeX, then add "\listfiles" to the document.
Then a list of version information is printed at the end
of the LaTeX run.
* Please no other files than the minimal test file.
The other files .log, .dvi, .ps, .pdf are seldom
necessary, so send them only on request.
* Please .zip or .tar.gz your file(s) before sending them!
