In that mode, LaTeX breaks your text into - lines and breaks the lines into pages. -<p> - There - are also several text-producing commands and environments for making a - box that put LaTeX in paragraph mode. The box made by one of these - commands or environments will be called a - <a href="ltx-294.html">parbox</a>. When LaTeX is in - paragraph mode while making a box, it is said to be in inner paragraph - mode. The normal paragraph mode, in which LaTeX starts out, is called - outer paragraph mode. - -<h2>Math mode</h2> - LaTeX is in math mode when it's generating a mathematical formula. It is - in math mode in the <a href="ltx-115.html#math">math</a>, - <a href="ltx-421.html">displaymath</a>, <a href="ltx-224.html">equation</a>, - and <a href="ltx-223.html"> eqnarray</a> environments. -<p> - In math mode letters are assumed to be math symbols and spaced accordingly. - Spaces in the input are ignored, except that spaces may be needed to - delineate the end of commands. - -<h2>LR mode</h2> - In LR mode, as in paragraph - mode, LaTeX considers the output that it produces to be a string of - words with spaces between them. In LR mode, unlike paragraph and math modes, - spaces are not ignored; an input space creates an output space. - However, unlike paragraph mode, LaTeX - keeps going from left to right; it never starts a new line in LR mode. - Even if you put a hundred words into an - <a href="ltx-265.html"><tt>\mbox</tt></a>, LaTeX would keep - typesetting them from left to right inside a single box, and then - complain because the resulting box was too wide to fit on the line. -<p> - LaTeX is in LR mode when it starts making a box with an - <a href="ltx-265.html"><tt>\mbox</tt></a> command. - You can get it to enter a different mode inside the box - for example, - you can make it enter math mode to put a formula in the box. -<hr> -Also see <a href="ltx-115.html">Math Formulas</a><br> -Go to <a href="ltx-2.html">LaTeX Table of Contents</a><br> -<hr> -<address> -Revised: Sheldon Green, 31 May 1995. -</address> -</body> -</html> |
