+The stackengine package provides a versatile way to vertically stack
+objects in a variety of customizable ways. A number of useful macros
+are provided, all of which make use of the stackengine core. These
+macros allow a wide variety of tasks, including:
+
+-creating aligned stacks of specified inter-item gap;
+
+-creating aligned stacks of specified inter-item baselinse shift;
+
+-stacking both above and below the baseline;
+
+-overlaying character glyphs;
+
+-insetting graphical images atop larger background images;
+
+-top and bottom lapping; shifting the horizontal axis of a stack;
+
+-changing the baseline of an object;
+
+-subfigure labeling;
+
+This package is primarily intended for text mode, thought it can be
+adapted for use in math mode.
