Abstract: tocstyle is a LaTeX package of the KOMA-Script bundle.
- While the main classes of the KOMA-Script bundle were made,
- there where several ideas for formating the table of
- contents and lists of floats, but almost none of them where
- implemented. One reason was, that the KOMA-Script author
- didn’t like to change the LaTeX kernel at a class, because
- this may result in serveral problems with other packages.
- The package tocstyle will fill the gap. If it conflicts
- with another package, you simply may decide not to use it.

Abstract: Many LaTeX classes, including the standard classes, present
the user with the largely fixed configuration of margins
- and type area. With the standard classes, the
- configuration determined is very much dependent on the
- chosen font size. There are separate packages, such as
- geometry, which give the user complete control, but also
- full responsibility of the settings of typearea and
+ and type area. With the standard classes, the choice is

margins.
KOMA-Script takes a somewhat different approach with its
- typearea package. Here the user is given several
- construction setting and automatization possibilities based
- on established typography standards in order to help guide
- him or her in making a good choice.
