    Memoir is a flexible class for typesetting general fiction,
non-fiction and mathematical works as books, reports, articles or
manuscripts. Documents can use 9pt, 10pt, 11pt, 12pt, 14pt or 17pt 
as the normal font size. Many methods are provided to let you create
your particular design. 

    NOTE: In order to provide fixes for any problems that may arise
between major releases, you may find a file called mempatch.sty
which contains any current fixes for the memoir class. The class
will automatically include this so DO NOT \usepackage{mempatch}.

   NOTE: Similarly, there may be a file called memmanadd.* which provides
amemdments to the current version of the User Manual.

   NOTE: If you are using the hyperref package, use the memhfixc package
after the hyperref package, e.g.,
...
\usepackage[...]{hyperref}
\usepackage{memhfixc}
...
