The -guide is part of his “<a href="FAQ-doc-dirs.html">tips and tricks</a>” and -a copy is maintained on CTAN. - -<p/>Two documents written more than ten years apart about font usage in -TeX are worth reading: -<a href="href=’http://www.tug.org/TUGboat/Articles/tb14-2/tb39rahtz-nfss.pdf">Essential NFSS</a> -by Sebastian Rahtz, and -<a href="http://tug.org/pracjourn/2006-1/schmidt/schmidt.pdf">Font selection in LaTeX</a>, -cast in the form of an FAQ, by Walter Schmidt.

It’s available on -CTAN, but the sources aren’t available (promised “some time -soon”). -<p/>Kjell Magne Fauske offers a set of examples of the use of the drawing -packages -<a href="FAQ-drawing.html">PGF and TikZ</a>; the -<a href="http://www.texample.net/tikz/examples/">examples catalogue</a> -includes examples (with output) from the package documentation as well -as code written by the author himself. -<p/>Vincent Zoonekynd provides a set of excellent (and graphic) tutorials -on the programming of -<a href="http://zoonek.free.fr/LaTeX/LaTeX_samples_title/0.html">title page styles</a>, -<a href="http://zoonek.free.fr/LaTeX/LaTeX_samples_chapter/0.html">chapter heading styles</a> -and -<a href="http://zoonek.free.fr/LaTeX/LaTeX_samples_section/0.html">section heading styles</a>. -In each file, there is a selection of graphics representing an output -style, and for each style, the code that produces it is shown. -<p/>An invaluable step-by-step setup guide for establishing a “work -flow” through your (La)TeX system, so that output appears at the -correct size and position on standard-sized paper, and that the print -quality is satisfactory, is Mike Shell’s <i>testflow</i>. The -tutorial consists of a large plain text document, and there is a -supporting LaTeX file together with correct output, both in PostScript and -PDF, for each of A4 and “letter” paper sizes. The -complete kit is available on CTAN (distributed with the -author’s macros for papers submitted for IEEE publications). -The issues are also covered in a later -<a href="FAQ-dvips-pdf.html">FAQ answer</a>. -<p/>Documentation of Japanese TeX use appears at least twice on the web: -Haruhiko Okumura’s page on - -<a href="http://oku.edu.mie-u.ac.jp/~okumura/texfaq/japanese/">typesetting Japanese with Omega</a> -(the parent page is in Japanese, so out of the scope of this -FAQ). -<p/>One “Tim” documents pTeX (a TeX system widely used in Japan) -in his - - - “<a href="http://www.users.waitrose.com/~nihilist/English_Notes_on_pTex.pdf">English notes on pTeX</a>”. -<p/>Some university departments make their local documentation available -on the web.
