A new package has been installed at tug.ctan.org and should soon be at your favorite mirror. Thank you, Jim Hefferon Saint Michael's College .......................................................................... The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: Philosophersimprint class Author's name: Boris Veytsman Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/philosophersimprint Summary description: Typesetting articles for online journal ``Philosophers' Imprint'' License type: lppl Announcement text:
As said in its mission statement at http://www.philosophersimprint.org, ``Philosophers' Imprint is a refereed series of original papers in philosophy, edited by philosophy faculty at the University of Michigan, with the advice of an international Board of Editors, and published on the World Wide Web by the University of Michigan Digital Library. The mission of the Imprint is to promote a future in which funds currently spent on journal subscriptions are redirected to the dissemination of scholarship for free, via the Internet.'' The journal used to accept manuscripts in Rich Text Format only. However, for many authors, especially from the field of logic, TeX seems to be a better choice. I was commissioned to write a LaTeX class for this journal. The aim of the class is to help authors to typeset their own articles in the ``Web-ready'' format. We do not assume the authors have any commercial fonts installed on their machines. The class uses only freely available and freely distributed fonts.
This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/philosophersimprint . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/cgi-bin/ctanPackageInformation.py?id=philosophersimprint (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org . Please join a users group; see http://www.tug.org/usergroups.html .

philosophersimprint – Typesetting articles for "Philosophers' Imprint"

In its mission statement we read “Philosophers’ Imprint is a refereed series of original papers in philosophy, edited by philosophy faculty at the University of Michigan, with the advice of an international Board of Editors, and published on the World Wide Web by the University of Michigan Digital Library. The mission of the Imprint is to promote a future in which funds currently spent on journal subscriptions are redirected to the dissemination of scholarship for free, via the Internet”.

The class helps authors to typeset their own articles in “Web-ready” format. No assumption is made about the fonts available to the author: the class itself is restricted to freely available and freely distributed fonts, only.
