contour.sty -- printing a contour for a text This package generates a colored contour around a given text in order to enable printing text over a background without the need of a color box around the text. By default this is done by placing copies of the text around the text itself and can be switched to use real outlines if supported by the backend driver. Automatic installation: ======================= Run the Makefile by using make all or even make install Manual installation: ==================== 1. Run latex contour.ins 2.
