前言
尊敬的读者:这是关于 TEX 的工具书。 TEX 是为了更好地排版书籍——特别是包含很多数
学公式的书籍而设计的一个软件。用 TEX 的格式准备好书稿后, 你就准确地告诉了计算机怎样
把它变成书页, 而得到的排版质量可以与世界上最好的排版工人的效果相媲美; 但是你所做的工
作仅仅相当于在普通打字机上把书稿直接输入进去。实际上, 如果你算上通常修改打印稿所花
费的时间, 那么你的工作量可能非常小, 这是因为计算机的文本文件修改并重新排版是相当容易
的。(如果这样的好话听起来不象真的, 那么记住这是 TEX 设计者所声明的, 如果有一天凑巧要
用到 TEX 时, 这些承诺可能有点偏差; 但是总之要看下去。)
