Almost all of the CSS 2.0 attributes + with regard to borders, background, padding, and margins are supported. + +* Fast and portable: only uses the standard LaTeX `picture` + environment for drawing and does not depend on loading big packages + like `tikz` or `pstricks`, which makes running LaTeX much faster. + +* Supports breakable boxes that span multiple columns or pages. This package + builds on the `longbox` package to break boxes over multiple pages. + +* Much care has been put in precise rendering with proper baseline + alignment and no spurious extra whitespace. + +* In contrast to larger packages like `mdframed` or `tcolorbox`, the + `longfbox` package does not have more extensive features like frame + titles, middle lines, skins, etc. The focus of this package + is on rendering boxes well with full CSS support where every + corner and side can be styled separately with good looking transitions + (and where we only depend on the standard `picture` environment). + +LICENSE + +Copyright (c) 2015 Daan Leijen. + +This software is author-maintained.
