Lout is a document formatting system designed and implemented by Jeffrey Kingston at the Basser Department of Computer Science, University of Sydney, Australia. The system reads a high-level description of a document similar in style to LaTeX and produces a PostScript file which can be printed on most laser printers and graphic display devices. A plain text output option is available, as is a highly experimental PDF output mode (users are encouraged to generate PostScript, then convert to PDF using GhostScript instead.)

Platypus is a full-featured and easy-to-use page layout and typesetting system. Inspired by technologies such as TeX, Platypus adds new features and, especially, ease of use to the generation of documents of all kinds. It is particularly adept at listing code, and so is frequently used for documentation. Input consists of text files with embedded formatting commands. These files are converted by Platypus to PDF, HTML, or Microsoft Rich Text Format (RTF). Platypus is written in Java and relies on the iText library. It is available at no charge under the Apache open-source license. For more information, see the links to the left.
