AMS-TeX – American Mathematical Society plain TeX macros

AMS-TeX is a TeX macro package, originally written by Michael Spivak for the American Mathematical Society (AMS) during 1983–1985 and is described in the book The Joy of TeX . It is based on Plain TeX, and provides many features for producing more professional-looking maths formulas with less burden on authors.

This is the final archival distribution of AMS-TeX. AMS-TeX is no longer supported by the AMS, nor is it used by the AMS publishing program. The AMS does not recommend creating any new documents using AMS-TeX; this distribution will be left on CTAN to facilitate processing of legacy documents and as a historical record of a pioneering TeX macro collection that played a key role in popularizing TeX and revolutionizing mathematics publishing.

In addition to the User’s Guide to AMS-TeX , the AMS has also made the full text of the most recent reprint of the second edition of The Joy of TeX by Michael Spivak available as a pdf file.

AMS-TeX is the historical basis of amslatex, which should now be used to prepare submissions for the AMS.
