:Abstract: The `isomath` package provides tools for a mathematical style
           that conforms to the International Standard ISO 80000-2 and is
           common in science and technology. It changes the default shape of
           capital Greek letters to italic, sets up bold italic and
           sans-serif bold italic math alphabets with Latin and Greek
           characters, and defines macros for markup of vector, matrix and
           tensor symbols.

====================  =================================

The bidirectional text <-> code converter PyLit_ can convert between
``isomath.sty`` and ``isomath.sty.txt``.

The Docutils_ and pdflatex were used to generate the HTML and PDF
documentation from the reStructuredText_ sources.


Requirements
============

This package builds on and extends fixmath_ by Walter Schmidt.
It also requires kvoptions_.

The cmbright_ package is recommended for *sans-serif italic* and *sans-serif
bold italic* fonts matching with Computer Modern and derivatives.

All required packages are part of TeXLive and MikTeX.


Installation
============

If possible, get this package from your distribution using its installation
manager.
  
Otherwise, make sure LaTeX can find the file `isomath.sty`:

* Download and unpack `isomath.zip` or just download `isomath.sty`.

* Copy/Move/Link ``isomath.sty`` to a suitable place in the TDS_ and run
  ``texhash``, or place it in the current working directory (e.g. for
  testing).



Usage
=====

Load the package and (optionally) change the default ``\vec`` macro with::

  \usepackage{isomath}
  \renewcommand{\vec}{\vectorsym}  % optional

Option description, more examples and usage hints are in the `user
documentation`_.
