Concerns when writing a paper/thesis. . .

Is my lit survey strong enough to support my hypothesis?My bibliography/citation formatting got inconsistent.My citation and bibliography aren’t synchronised!My math equations don’t display/print correctly.Should this discussion go under this section or that?What formatting did I use for my subsection headings again?Didn’t I set that heading to bold and italic 5 minutes ago?My section/figure/page numbering’s gone all wrong!Does this subsection go together with this section?Oops, I forgot to update the TOC.What results should I put in this table?How do I fit/split this huge table on/across page(s)?My figure jumped off the page again!The application crashed!MY FILE WAS CORRUPTED!!!

What is LATEX?

Donald Knuth created TEX = TeX (from Greek τεχνη ‘art’; ‘craft’)

pronounced ‘tech’, like Scottish ‘loch’a computer typesetting systemfor “the creation of beautiful books”

Leslie Lamport wrote LATEX = LaTeX = “Layman’s TEX”pronounced ‘lay-tech’ or ‘lah-tech’a document preparation system: plain text + markupa macro package on top of TEXseparation of content and style

Preferred by many academic journals

Many, many “distros” (TeXLive, MiKTeX, MacTeX. . . )

More history at http://www.ctan.org/what_is_tex.html

Pros and Cons

Free software + Free-of-chargePortable (plain text input; DVI/PS/PDF. . . output)Light, robust, secure, stable, consistentSupports multilingual typesetting, international charactersGood for complex, structured documents or lots of mathsGood for batch-processing jobs

ConsLearning curveOverkill for simple documentsNot as suitable for graphic-intensive material (e.g. advertising)

Disclaimer

This is not a Word Processors vs LATEX debate.

It’s a hands-on demonstration of an alternative tool.

Some word processors also provide mechanisms to handle same routinetasks (with varying degrees of ease, consistency and stability)

Use the best tool for the task at hand.

You are the best judge to decide for yourself.

Basics

What to Install? (for Windows)

(FOC options here; commercial solutions are available)

EssentialMiKTEX: LATEX engine for Windows (includes LATEX-friendly editor andPDF previewer)TeXMaker : Another simple editorJabRef: Java-based GUI bibliography and reference manager

OptionalLaTable: visual table editor to help with complex tablesGhostScript, GSView if you work with PostScript outputs

Basics

Configure MikTeX

We need to configure MikTeX so that it can update & install packages usingUNITEN’s network

Basics

Proxy setting

Set proxy to tmg.uniten.edu.my with port 8080 and checked authentication boxFairuz Abd (TuGUNITEN) February 14, 2012 11 / 63

Basics

Authentication

When it asks username and password, enter your UNITEN’s login

Basics Package installation

Install new package

Open package manager and search for ieeetran and elsarticle. Click + toinstall the selected packages.

Minimal Document Structure

%% helloworld.tex − First LaTeX document

\documentclass{article}

\begin{document}Hello World!\end{document}

Standard document classes:article: for short reports, articles in proceedings or journals, etc.book: for real books.report, letter, . . .

Other document classes: beamer, scrartcl, memoir, recipe, resume,leaflet, exam, beamerposter. . .

LATEX Workflow

1 Create, edit, save .tex file2 To publish click in front of PDFLaTeX3 or you can press F6

4 Correct errors, repeat publishing (click ) again5 To view output, click in front of View PDF6 or you can press F7

White Space and New Lines

Space and tab charactersWhite space does not (usually) matterTEX determines inter-word spacing to ensure legibility

Paragraph breakingLeave a blank line between text to break paragraphMultiple blank lines won’t give more vertical spacingTEX determines inter-line spacing to ensure legibility

Manual line- and page-breaking?(are you sure?)TEX decides where to break lines, pages to ensure legibilityif you insist: \\, \pagebreak

Special Characters

# (hash, pound) : \#$ (dollar) : \$% (percent) : \%ˆ (“hat”) : \^{}& (ampersand) : \&_ (underscore) : \_{ (left brace) : \{} (right brace) : \}˜ (tilde) : \~{}∼ (wide tilde) : $\sim$“ (open double quotes) : ``” (close double quotes) : ''@ (alias) : \string@

Font Families and Effects

\textrm{roman} → roman\textsf{sans serif} → sans serif\texttt{typewriter} → typewriter

\textbf{bold} → bold\textit{italics} → italics\underline{underline}→ underline\textsc{Small Caps} → SMALL CAPS

\emph{emphasis} → emphasis

Commands can be nested:\texttt{\emph{Like this.}}→ Like this.

Mathematics with amsmath package

\eqref{eq:golden:ratio:fibonacci} relates the golden ratio and theFibonacci series. Recall that the golden ratio, $\phi = \frac{1}{2} (1+ \sqrt{5})$.

\begin{equation}\label{eq:golden:ratio:fibonacci}\phi = 1 + \sum^{\infty} _{n=1}

\frac{ (-1)^{n+1} }{ F_n F_{n+1} }\end{equation}

Figures & Tables

Graphics File Format

pdflatex embeds JPG, PNG and PDF graphic files

\usepackage{graphicx}...\includegraphics[width=.3\textwidth]{logouniten}

(no file extension→ automatically looks for .jpg, .png, .pdf)

Other ways to specify the size:width=5cm, height=120mm, scale=1.1 . . .

\begin{figure}[hbt!]\centering\includegraphics[width=.3\textwidth]{logouniten}\caption{UNITEN's logo}\label{fig:uniten:logo}\end{figure}

Figure \ref{fig:uniten:logo} depicts UNITEN's logo.

Tabular Material

\begin{tabular}{| l | c || r |}\hlineone & two two & three three tree \\ \hlineone one & two two two & three \\ \hlineone one one & two & three three \\ \hline\hline\multicolumn{2}{|l||}{In the end} & What?! \\ \hline\end{tabular}
