hackerskamp, SHA- abstract:
Last year there was a large hacker camp on the Flevopolder. Because TeXnicians can also call themselves "hackers", there was even a real "LaTeX village" present at the camp this year. A short report of the camp. - MAPS 49, 2019, 5-5

For many years I have been making program booklets for the Nieuwegeins Kamerkoor, and always with LaTeX, resp. LuaTeX. This article describes some macros I used to create the booklet. Aligning a song text on the page — usually A5 — and its translation is usually manual work. The package verse turned out to be unsuitable, this article contains an alternative. - MAPS 49, 2019, 37-38

The application MUPDF (mupdf.com) is a very fast, portable, open-source PDF previewer and development toolkit actively supported by Artifex, the creators of GhostScript (artifex.com). But MUPDF is not just a very fast, portable, open-source PDF previewer and toolkit. It also comes with a handy collection of command-line tools that are easily overlooked. The command-line tools allow you to annotate, edit, and convert documents to other formats such as HTML, SVG, PDF, and PNG. You can also write scripts to manipulate documents using Javascript. This small paper gives a quick overview of the possibilities. - MAPS 49, 2019, 39-40

It can be difficult to find the information you need, and that includes TeX and LaTeX users. But I hope to show here that you usually don't have to search long. TeX Live and MiKTeX install almost complete documentation ootnote{With TeX Live this is an installation option. Online there are also very complete and easily searchable overviews. - MAPS 49, 2019, 41-42

- abstract:
Sometimes it is necessary for a choir or an orchestra to copy a piece from a music book, the result being a number of scanned images — usually of the jpeg or pdf type. \par %[2ex] Below I describe a method to make the margins of all pages straight and symmetrical with a few LaTeX macros, to display the scans on the entire page and to make the result as one PDF usable for printing. For example, correcting the trapezoidal shape of a scan is only possible with more specific software such as DigiKam.\par Using an editor with column editing options can be useful. - MAPS 49, 2019, 43-48

This article describes the adventures that I had while working on a small TeX project without my beloved laptop at hand. With only an iPad to do the work and without a local TeX system installed on it there were several challenges. I document them here so that others can enjoy the struggles I had and can benefit from the solutions when they encounter similar situations. - MAPS 49, 2019, 58-70
