Release 2021-12-01 pre-release 0
The amsmath
package is an extension package for LaTeX that provides
additional features to facilitate mathematical typesetting. It has been
developed by the American Mathematical Society (AMS) and released for general
use as a service to the mathematical community. A number of smaller
auxiliary packages are also distributed with the amsmath
package.
Effective in 2016, maintenance of amsmath was transferred from AMS to the LaTeX Project; as
amsmath` is considered a "required" package, this
centralizes control over the core LaTeX components.
We no longer distribute installation instructions for the various TeX
implementations. All modern TeX systems include amsmath
as-standard, and end
users should in general use the release versions supplied in this way.
Release distribution is carried out only through the CTAN archives.
The primary documentation for amsmath
is in provided as amsldoc.pdf
.
Additional documentation files include:
diffs-m.txt
subeqn.pdf
technote.pdf
testmath.pdf
which are included in the collection. All of these can be accessed
easily with most distributions by entering texdoc
filename at the
command line, or via TeXdoc Online.
The file changes.txt
lists recent changes in reverse chronological order.
The file diffs-m.txt
contains information on development and changes
prior to 2000.
If you wish to report a problem or bug in the amsmath
bundle
please use the Issue Tracker for LaTeX2e on

In particular, to check that you are really seeing a bug, please write
a short, self-contained document that shows the problem. This should

package, which will warn if your test file is
not suitable for one or the other reason. See the CONTRIBUTING
guide
for further details, or if you need to obtain the latexbug
