 1 About this document
 *********************
 
 This is an unofficial reference manual for the LaTeX2e document
 preparation system, which is a macro package for the TeX typesetting
 program (Overview).  This document's home page is
 <http://home.gna.org/latexrefman>.  That page has links to the current
 output in various formats, sources, mailing list archives and
 subscriptions, and other infrastructure.
 
    In this document, we will mostly just use 'LaTeX' rather than
 'LaTeX2e', since the previous version of LaTeX (2.09) was retired many
 years ago.
 
    LaTeX is currently maintained by a group of volunteers
 (<http://latex-project.org>).  The official documentation written by the
 LaTeX project is available from their web site.  This document is
 completely unofficial and has not been reviewed by the LaTeX
 maintainers.  Do not send bug reports or anything else about this
 document to them.  Instead, please send all comments to
 <latexrefman-discuss@gna.org>.
