The SILE Typesetter — Simon’s Improved Layout Engine
SILE is a typesetting system; its job is to produce beautiful printed documents. Conceptually, SILE is similar to TeX—from which it borrows some concepts and even syntax and algorithms—but the similarities end there. Rather than being a derivative of the TeX family SILE is a new typesetting and layout engine written from the ground up using modern technologies and borrowing some ideas from graphical systems such as InDesign.
DialogLayout is a java layout manager. Components are positioned relative to each other using constraints that avoid nesting. Layouts scale to different sizes because the measurement system (dialog units) scales with the font. Requires jdk1.4.
