Summary : Make maths comply with ISO 31-0:1992 to ISO 31-13:1992
Description :
LaTeX's default style of typesetting mathematics does not
comply with the International Standards ISO 31-0:1992 to ISO
31-13:1992 which require that uppercase Greek letters always be
typset upright, as opposed to italic (even though they usually
represent variables) and allow for typsetting of variables in a
boldface italic style (even though the required fonts are
available). This package ensures that uppercase Greek be
typeset in italic style, that upright $\Delta$ and $\Omega$
symbols are available through the commands \upDelta and
\upOmega; and provides a new math alphabet \mathbold for
boldface italic letters, including Greek. This package used to
be part of the was bundle, but has now become a package in its
own right.
