Abstract

top
A small but growing effort is underway at the volunteer web site Distributed Proofreaders (DP, at www.pgdp.net), with the goal of creating high-quality LaTeX files of selected public domain mathematical books for distribution by Project Gutenberg (PG). This article introduces DP and PG, describes how books are transcribed at DP, and gives an overview of current LaTeX coding strategies.
