Flatland
|
|
========
|
|
Although Edwin A. Abbott's essay "Flatland" is readily available on the
|
|
internet, I failed to find a nicely typeset version. At this time,
|
|
the rendering quality of internet browsers doesn't come anywhere near the
|
|
quality of a nice book.
|
|
|
|
For these reasons, as well as a healthy portion of boredom, I made the version
|
|
of "Flatland" you are currently reading, in LaTeX. The LaTeX source can be
|
|
found on https://github.com/Ivesvdf/flatland (feel free to make issues
|
|
or send me pull requests when you find bugs or have improvements). It should
|
|
also be fairly easy --- a matter of minutes --- to produce a book-sized
|
|
version, ready to send to a printer.
|
|
|
|
**An additional note:**
|
|
|
|
I found this on github, where it included an A4 version in pdf. I decided to update this to a letterhalf page size, which is more common in North America. I also changed to the \texttt{kpfont} font package, and reduced the size of the type from 12 points to 10 points.

Where necessary, I also adjusted the scaling of the images.
