Printing and Viewing Maple LaTeX Documents
==========================================


To format and print documents exported (or saved) as LaTeX from Maple
worksheets you require access to a standard version of LaTeX (LaTeX2e)
and the LaTeX style package "maple2e". The style package is located in
the Etc subdirectory or folder where Maple is installed.

Place the style file "maple2e.sty" in the same directory (or folder) as the
latex file you wish to process.  Processing your file with LaTeX creates 
a .dvi file.  If LaTeX reports that it is unable to locate the file 
"maple2e.sty", then consult your LaTeX installation instructions for the 
location to place new macro definitions.


Document Structure
------------------

An exported "Maple to LaTeX" document is structured as described below.  

The document preamble contains the following command which instructs LaTeX
to use the "maple2e" package.  The document class can be changed.

	\documentclass[fullpage,11pt]{article}  % a standard latex style
    	\usepackage{maple2e}


The macro definitions for "maple2e" define the various environments used in the
LaTeX documents produced by Maple.  They include definitions for the following
special environments

	\begin{mapleinput}  ... \end{mapleinput}
 	\begin{maplettyout} ... \end{maplettyout}
	\begin{maplelatex}  ... \end{maplelatex}
 
and the LaTeX macro

	\mapleplot{...}

which is used to include Maple plots.

The LaTeX macro "\mapleinline" is used to encode Maple's 2-D inline math
displays.  For example, 

	\mapleinline{inert}{2d}{sin(x^2);}{$\sin(x^2)$}

corresponds to an inert Maple expression that appears in the Maple
worksheet in 2-D mode. The Maple command sin(x^2) is displayed in 
LaTeX by "$\sin(x^2)$".


Defined Styles
--------------

The document preamble also includes macros that define the LaTeX 
appearance of Maple's worksheet styles.  Maple's default styles are all
pre-defined in a manner which approximates their appearance in the 
worksheet.

Some examples of such automatically generated LaTeX definitions are

% Named Maple Paragraph Styles
\newenvironment{Normal}{\normalsize\rmfamily\mdseries}{}
\newenvironment{Text Output}{\normalsize\ttfamily\mdseries}{}
\newenvironment{Title}{\begin{center}\rmfamily\Large\bfseries\upshape}%
{\end{center}}

% Named Maple Character styles
 \newenvironment{Warning}{\ttfamily}{}
 \def\HyperLink#1{{\normalsize\rmfamily\itshape #1}}

Character style names with blanks in them require a special encoding
in LaTeX, but are handled in much the same manner.

In addition, placeholder LaTeX macro definitions are included for each
user-defined Maple style.  The placeholder LaTeX macros cause all
user-defined styles to appear as normal text, but they are easily
customized (by editing the source document) to achieve special effects 
in LaTeX.   For example, the user-defined Maple character style 
"Special Text" might initially appear in the LaTeX document preamble 
as

	\expandafter\def\csname Special Text\endcsname#1{%
	{\normalsize\rmfamily\mdseries #1}}

This character style definition can be edited directly to use large 
italic by changing it to read

	\expandafter\def\csname Special Text\endcsname#1{%
	{\large\rmfamily\itshape #1}}


Changing Overall Layout Parameters 
----------------------------------

You can change the overall layout either by choosing a different
document class, for example

	\documentclass[10pt]{book}  % a standard latex style
	\usepackage{maple2e}

or by making a copy of the "maple2e.sty" file and editing some of the
parameters that are set in that file. These parameters control properties
such as page height and width and the amount of spacing above and below 
Maple objects.


Exporting Worksheets Containing Plots 
--------------------------------------

When you export a Maple worksheet containing Maple generated plots, each 
plot is regenerated by Maple in postscript and saved to a separate file.
The plot file names are generated automatically from the name of the 
worksheet and numbered sequentially.

A reference to the exported postscript file, such as

	\mapleplot{worksheetname01.ps}

is inserted into your LaTeX file at the location where the inline
plot will appear.


Printing LaTeX Files Containing Maple Plots
-------------------------------------------

To process a LaTeX file that contains macros of the form
"\mapleplot{...}" LaTeX must know which dvi-to-PostScript
conversion program is to be used.
 
By default, it is assumed that the PostScript conversion program
"dvips" is in use, but there are several other such programs to choose
from, depending on which LaTeX installation you are using.

To make use of a different dvi-to-PostScript converter, (for example, 
"dvi2ps"), modify the "maple2e" usepackage definition in your document
preamble to read

	\usepackage[dvi2ps]{maple2e}

If you do not have any dvi-to-PostScript conversion program
installed, then modify the userpackage macro call to read

	\usepackage[noplots]{maple2e}
