Willkommen bei KOMA-Script …
\end{document}A bundle of LaTeX classes and packages that can be configured in depth.
scrartcl, scrreprt and scrbook take the place of article, report and book, and offer more configuration options.
Letters following DIN, US, Swiss, French and Japanese conventions, each with a matching layout.
The typearea package computes margins and text area based on typographic considerations.
A layer system for headers and footers. An alternative to fancyhdr that also works with other classes.
Support for German, English and many other languages, including babel and polyglossia.
Hundreds of options via \KOMAoption{}, from font size to chapter layout.
Over 600 pages of documentation in German and English, with plenty of examples.
The project started a few months before the first release of LaTeX 2ε and is still maintained today.
The new “KOMA-Script and Friends” website is online. Markus Kohm describes the move from a dynamic CMS to statically generated pages and what that means for search, security and maintenance.
The blog of “KOMA-Script and Friends” has gone live. Markus Kohm explains why old posts will not be translated.
Markus Kohm congratulates Dr. Ingeborg Syllm-Rapoport on the doctorate she was finally awarded, decades after it was denied to her.
The documentation covers the classes and packages in detail. The examples show what a finished document looks like.
