As discussed in the Book Design thread of Edward Tufte's Ask E.T Forum, this is beginning of a Tufte-inspired LaTeX layout to produce handouts and books.
Some examples of the Tufte-LaTeX classes in action:
- Some papers by Jason Catena using the handout class
- A handout for a math club lecture on volumes of n-dimensional spheres by Marty Weissman
- A draft copy of a book written by Marty Weissman using the new Tufte-book class
- An example handout (source) using XeLaTeX with the bidi class option for the ancient Hebrew by Kirk Lowery
The following LaTeX packages are required:
- chngpage or changepage
- fancyhdr
- fontenc
- geometry
- hyperref
- natbib and bibentry
- optparams
- paralist
- placeins
- ragged2e
- setspace
- textcase
- textcomp

The following packages are optional and will be automatically used if installed:
- beramono
- helvet
- letterspace (in the microtype package)
- mathpazo

Contributors welcome to finish cooking this half-baked cake!
