If this site has been useful in something you write, please acknowledge it, and include a reference to the top level of the site: www.jmilne.org/math/

Please don't copy items from this site to your own website except temporarily (for example, during the teaching of a course)---rather, include a link to the top level of this site. That way, only the most current version will be available.

Please do copy the large files from this site to your hard disk, rather than repeatedly viewing them on this site --- this will reduce traffic.

The fonts are partially embedded (as Type 1 postscript) in the pdf files, and so they should view and print correctly on all machines. If they view correctly but don't print correctly, the problem is with your print driver --- try printing the dvi file or ps file if it exists (or print the pdf file with Ghostscript rather than Acrobat). If a pdf file doesn't view correctly, and you have no problem with other pdf files, let me know. Also, please let me know of any broken links or other problems.

Currently, I use:
Scientific Workplace, a WYSIWYG TeX front end, to produce the TeX files.
MiKTeX, a free TeX processor, to produce the dvi files.
dvipdfm or pdflatex, which are included with MiKTeX, to produce the pdf files.
dvips, which is included with MiKTeX, to produce the ps files,
Boxer as a text editor to tweak the tex files.
amscd and xymatrix to produce the commutative diagrams.

Starting in 1984, I used T3, a scientific wordprocessor, and a translator to produce the TeX files. Then for a period, I used Leo, a MSDOS-based WYSIWYG TeX front end. I used to use PCTeX to produce the dvi files, dvips (from within PCTeX) to produce the ps files, and Adobe Acrobat to product the pdf files (from the ps files). Some of the files use Paul Taylor's Diagrams package. to produce some of the commutative diagrams.
