Summary description: Calculate LaTeX settings for arbitrary font and page sizes
License type: gpl
Announcement text:
A python script to calculate LaTeX settings for arbitrary font and page sizes, helpful when producing documents for people with low vision. Compatible with any other LaTeX package and avoids the usual drawbacks of giant print (less weight in the font etc) by taking the approach of typesetting on small paper and then using magstep. Can also help for typesetting posters.
This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/support/latexpaper . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/cgi-bin/ctanPackageInformation.py?id=latexpaper (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear).
