+1 INTRODUCTION
+==============
+
+This package puts the label LastPage (\AtEndDocument) into
+the .aux file, allowing the user to refer to the last page
+of a document. This might be particularly useful in places
+like headers or footers. -
+When more than one page numbering scheme is used, or the
+fnsymbol page numbering scheme is used, or another package
+has output after this package, or the number of pages
+instead of the last page's name is needed, or the page
+numbers exeed a certain range, there might be problems,
+which can be solved by using the pagesLTS package instead.
+
+
+2 DOWNLOAD
+==========
+
+`lastpage' is available on CTAN:
+ CTAN:macros/latex/contrib/lastpage/
+
+Also a ZIP file is provided that contains the files, already
+sorted in a TDS tree (should become available on CTAN soon):
+ CTAN:install/macros/latex/contrib/lastpage.tds.zip
+
+`CTAN:' means one of the `Comprehensive TeX Archive Network'
+nodes or one of its mirrors. This is explained in
+ http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=archives
+
+The CTAN stuff will be mirrored automatically from the
+ftp server, so
+ ftp://ftp.tug.org/pub/tex/pagesLTS/
+corresponds to
+ CTAN:macros/latex/contrib/pagesLTS/
+
+
+3 INSTALLATION
+==============
+
+First, please make sure that there is no old version of
+lastpage at some obsolete place in your system.
+
+Installation with ZIP file in TDS format
+----------------------------------------
+The ZIP file `lastpage.tds.zip' contains the files sorted
+in a TDS tree. Thus you can directly unpack the ZIP file
+inside a TDS tree.
+(See CTAN:tds.zip for an explanation of TDS.)
+Example:
+ cd /...somewhere.../texmf
+ unzip /...downloadpath.../lastpage.tds.zip
+Do not forget to refresh the file name database of this
+TDS tree.
+Example:
+ texhash /...somewhere.../texmf
+
+Manual installation
+-------------------
+a) Download the lastpage files from CTAN or the TUG server.
+ If necessary, unpack them.
+b) If directory `beta' exists, replace the files by the
+ counterparts in this directory, if you want to use the
+ latest versions.
+c) Generate the package and driver files:
+ tex lastpage.ins
+d) Install the files `*.sty', and `*.cfg' in your TDS tree:
+ cp *.sty *.cfg TDS:tex/latex/muench/lastpage/
+ Replace `TDS:' by the prefix of your TDS tree
+ (texmf directory).
+e) Copy the documentation files to
+ "TDS:doc/latex/muench/lastpage/":
+ README, lastpage.pdf, lastpage-example.tex,
+ lastpage-example.pdf.
+f) Update the databases if necessary, e.g. for teTeX:
+ mktexlsr .../texmf
+
+
+4 ADDITIONAL PACKAGES
+=====================
+
+The lastpage package does not depend on other packages.
+
+
+5 PACKAGE COMPATIBILITY
+=======================
+
+lastpage is not compatible with the very old version 2.0
+(and earlier) of the endfloat package. Newer versions of
+endfloat exists (at the time of writing this documentation:
+v2.4i as of 1995/10/11), which are available at CTAN.

+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 informations 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". Then
+ a list of version informations 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!
