In order to reduce network load, it is recommended that you use the Comprehensive TeX Archive Network (CTAN) host which is located in the closest network proximity to your site. Alternatively, you may wish to obtain a copy of the CTAN via CD-ROM (see help/CTAN.cdrom for details). CTAN has a mirror multiplexor service . Point your browser to http://mirror.ctan.org/ for automatic redirection to a mirror in or close to your country. Known mirrors of the CTAN reside on (alphabetically, by continent, then by country): Africa ====== ftp.sun.ac.za (South Africa) URL: ftp://ftp.sun.ac.za/CTAN Asia ==== ftp.ctex.org (China) URL:
