+The Maple Technical Newsletter Styles (LaTeX2e)
+================================================
+
+This directory contains latex2e style files and sample documents of
+interest to contributors to the Maple Technical NewsLetter. In
+particular, see the sample article MTNarticle.tex. This article is
+also available as an HTML document. See the file:
+
+ ftp://ftp.maplesoft.com/pub/maple/MTN/MTNarticle/MTNarticle.html
+
+Author's Guide Lines
+--------------------
+
+When preparing an article for MTN, the following general guidelines should
+be followed.
+
+ - Prepare the article exactly as you would a standard LaTeX
+ "article", indicating the \title and \author. Abstracts will not be
+ used in the final publication.
+
+ - When giving examples in Maple, both input and output must
+ be shown. Include Maple commands and and Maple results using the
+ same macros as used by "Export to LaTeX". (See below)
+
+ - The reader should be able to reproduce the output by simply
+ entering every Maple input, i.e. you should not hide some steps.
+
+To prepare your article, structure it exactly as you would a standard
+latex "article". For example,
+
+ - Specify the title using the \title{...} macro.
+
+ - Specify the author / authors using \author{...} and their
+ institutions by using \thanks{...}
+
+ - Include the title by using the \maketitle macro.
+
+ - Use ordinary \section{...}, and \subsection{...} commands to
+ break up your article.
+
+The final document will be processed using the the document class
+mtn.cls. Thus, a typical article will have the structure
+
+ \documentclass[11pt]{mtn}
+ \usepackage{palatino}
+ \begin{document}
+ \title{The D Operator and Algorithmic \\ Differentiation}
+ \author{Michael Monagan
+ \thanks{Informatik E.T.H., Z\"{u}rich, Switzerland. monagan@inf.ethz.ch}
+ \and J. S. Devitt\thanks{Faculty of Mathematics, University of Waterloo,
+ Canada, jsdevitt@daisy.uwaterloo.ca}
+ }
+ \shorttitle{D Operator}
+ \maketitle
+ \begin{document}
+ \section{Introduction}
+ ...
+ \end{document}
+
+You can use the standard LaTeX "article" style for preparation just by
+omitting the "\shorttitle". Use the macro package found in
+"mapleenv.sty". In that case the document would begin
+
+ \documentclass[11pt]{article}
+ \usepackage{mapleenv}
+ \begin{document}
+ \title{...}
+ \author{...}
+ \maketitle
+ ...
+
+In either case, Maple input and output should be inserted in a format
+analogous to that produced by "Export to LaTeX" from a Maple V Release 3
+worksheet. Examples of Maple input and output are
+
+ Input:
+
+ \begin{mapleinput}
+ x + y^2;
+ \end{mapleinput}
+
+ Output:
+
+ \begin{maplelatex}
+ \[
+ x + y^2
+ \]
+ \end{maplelatex}
+
+ TTYOutput:
+
+ \begin{maplettyout}
+ 2
+ x + y
+ \end{maplettyout}
+
+ Plots:
+
+ \mapleplot{filename.ps}
+
+
+Required LaTeX2e Macro Packages and Styles
+-------------------------------------------
+
+Before processing your document with LaTeX2e you will require
+the style files
+
+ mtn.cls (fileversion 1.8 or newer)
+ mapleenv.sty (fileversion 4.0 or newer)
+
+and the "graphics" package that is part of LaTeX2e distribution must be
+installed as part of your LaTeX environment. A copy is located in the
+"graphics" subdirectory. The graphics macros must be expanded for
+installation by running the command
+
+ % latex2e graphics.ins
+
+The result of expanding this macro package is found in the subdirectory
+"graphics_expanded". The master graphics source files are available from
+
+ ftp://ftp.shsu.edu/tex-archive/macros/latex2e/packages/graphics
+
+The Maple styles are available from
+
+ ftp://ftp.maplesoft.com/pub/maple/MTN
+ ftp://ftp.shsu.edu/tex-archive/macros/latex2e/contrib/supported/maple
+
+The document maplems.tex provides additional documentation on how to use
+the styles. For additional information, contact doc@maplesoft.on.ca .
