colorist
bundle: write you documents in a colorful way
New documentations are still being written. For now, only the core code is included in TeX Live 2024 and MiKTeX (old documentations have been removed from the distribution).
Introduction
colorist
is a collection of styles and classes that helps you to typeset articles and books with a colorful design.
It mainly consists of two parts.
- Main part:
colorist.sty
: interface of the main stylecolorist-fancy.sty
: the style "fancy"- ... and more styles to come (currently on schedule: "plain", "classical", "modern", "simple", "elegant", "flow", "stream")
colorart.cls
: class for typesetting articlescolorbook.cls
: class for typesetting books
They can be used with any major TeX engine. Currently they have native support to English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese (European and Brazilian) and Spanish typesetting.
- Derivative part:
lebhart.cls
: enhanced version ofcolorart
beaulivre.cls
: enhanced version ofcolorbook
They are similar to the main classes, but have Unicode support, thus can only be used with either XeLaTeX or LuaLaTeX. Currently, they have native support to Chinese (simplified and traditional), English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese (European and Brazilian), Russian and Spanish typesetting, and also use more beautiful fonts.
