Michel Goossens, Frank Mittelbach and Alexander Samarin
All three authors have for years been involved in the support and development of LaTeX applications. Michel Goossens and Alexander Samarin developed ideas for The LaTeX Companion while supporting hundreds of LaTeX users at CERN, and Frank Mittelbach, at the University of Mainz and Electronic Data Systems. The questions most frequently posed to them became the questions answered in this book. Mittelbach is partly responsible for the current maintenance of LaTeX and is the author or coauthor of many widespread LaTeX extension packages, such as AMS-LaTeX, doc, multicol, and the New Font Selection Scheme. He is also the manager and principal architect of the longer-term LaTeX3 project, to which half of the royalties from this book are paid.
