Part 1: programs on the TU/e MiKTEX CD-ROM:

• WinEdt

• Yap

• GSView

• MiKTEX Package Manager

• MiKTEX Options

• Designer

• create graphics and include them in your LaTeX document

12


Part 2: LATEX for experienced users

• customising list structures

• automatic calculation of column widths

• use non-standard headers and footers

• change chapter and section title appearance

• change table of contents appearance

• create an interactive PDF file from your LaTeX document

• create a master index

• citations and a bibliography

• including programming statements in your LaTeX document

• create a PDF slide show or poster

• Using TrueType Fonts in LATEX

12


WinEdt - Working with a main file

In bigger documents one often has onemain file which includes several sub-documents: \input chapter1 etc.. WinEdt has special functionality todeal with this document structure:

declares the current file as main file. This means that the programslatex, yap, dvips, gsview, pdflatex operate on this mainfile, even if another document is opened in WinEdt.

does not consider the current file as main file anymore. The file that iscurrently open will be LATEXed.

displays the project tree (main file, input files, table of contents, bibliog-raphy and labels. You can click on files in this tree to open them.

Installing additional packages

Two ways to install additional packages:

1. MiKTEX Package Manager(in the MiKTEX program group in the Start Menu)

2. automatic package installation (since MiKTEX 2.4)

LATEX search path

1. local TEXmf tree: C:\MiKTeX\localtexmf

2. standard TEXmf tree: C:\MiKTeX\texmf

12


LATEX search path

Adding your own TEXmf tree:

1. create a directory that contains the root of your TEXmf tree(e.g. C:\My Documents\LaTeX)

2. create a subdirectory tex and copy all your style files into this directory

3. optional: create a subdirectory fonts and copy all your font files into thisdirectory

4. start MiKTEX Options ( button in WinEdt)

5. add your directory to the TEXmf Root Directories and move it to the topof the list

Graphics

Two ways to make pictures:

Using LATEX, epic and eepic drawingcommands:

LATEX Graphics

Load the packages epic and/or eepic. Then create drawing objects in a pic-ture environment.

\setlength{\unitlength}{1cm}\begin{picture}(6,6)\thicklines\put(1,1){\grid(4,4)(1,1)}\drawline(3,2)(4,3)(3,4)(2,3)(3,2)\put(3,3){\circle{2}}\end{picture}

You can use the program JFig (xfig in Unix/Linux) to create eepic or EPSfigures.

12


JFig (similar to xfig)

Graphics Inclusion

To include an external graphics file:

• Load the package graphicx in the preamble:

\usepackage{graphicx}

• Include the graphics using this command:

\includegraphics[width=0.7\linewidth]{filename}

12


Graphics Inclusion

Supported File Formats:EPS PDF JPG GIF PNG

LATEX yes no yes∗ no yes∗

PDFLATEX no yes yes no yes

Please notice: only EPS and PDF are scalable. Use JPG and PNG just forphotographs!

Many programs can generate EPS images. Use Corel Designer to exportimages created in other programs. Copy/Paste the objects in Corel Designerand export to EPS.

Use EPS2PDF (on your desktop) to convert EPS to PDF.

∗ does not work automatically when working with LATEX. You should enterthe coordinates of the bounding box manually.

12


Graphics Inclusion

\includegraphics[options]{filename}

When including EPS or PDF files, use the file name without extension!LATEX will take the EPS, PDFLATEX will take the PDF.

Supported options are:

scale=number magnifies the figure by number over its natural size.

width=length specifies the width to which the figure should be scaled

height=length specifies the height to which the figure should be scaled

angle=number rotates the figure counterclockwise over the specified an-gle (in degrees)

bb=llx lly urx ury enters the coordinates of the bounding box manually.

Scalable Graphics Software

• Corel Designer,

• CorelDraw,

• Adobe Illustrator,

• Microsoft Visio,

• Microsoft Office Drawing,

• OpenOffice.org Draw,

• all computer algebra software (Mathematica, Matlab, Maple)

Non-scalable Graphics Software

• Adobe PhotoShop,

• Paint Shop Pro,

• MS Paint,

• all digital photo editing software!

12


Including JPG/PNG Images

LATEX (unlike PDFLATEX) cannot determine the bounding box automatically.

Creating EPS graphics with OpenOffice.org

OpenOffice.org is an alternative to Microsoft Office.Advantages:

• You can download it for free: http://www.openoffice.org.

• It is compatible with Microsoft Office (supports Word, Excel and EMFfiles).

• Has EPS and PDF export functionality, but it still contains some bugs(some text “disappears”)

In fact, the only programmodule that we need, is Openoffice.org Draw (andthe graphics filters).

12


Creating EPS graphics with Adobe PostScript Driver

• download Adobe PostScript Printer Driver fromhttp://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/.

• installation settings:

– directly connected to computer (local printer)

– port: FILE:

• to create an EPS file, print to this printer

• in printer properties, advanced options, select PostScript Output Option:Encapsulated PostScript (EPS)

• select a filename (add .ps extension!)

• open GSView and select File−→ PS to EPS

• Select “automatically calculate bounding box” and press Yes.

Inline floats

The package wrapfig makes it possible to place text next to floats:

\begin{wrapfigure}{placement}[overhang]{width}\includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{image}\end{wrapfigure}

placement horizontal placement: l (left) or r (right). For two-sided docu-ments: i (inside edge) or o (outside edge).

overhang overhang of the float into the margin (default: 0pt).

width width of the figure or table (use wraptable for tables).

12



3. Two captions

Nowwe need the package caption. This package has very extensive function-ality to change the appearance of captions. In this case we are only going touse the new command \captionof.

\parbox[t]{0.45\textwidth}{\includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{pic1}\captionof{figure}{the first figure}

}\hfill\parbox[t]{0.45\textwidth}{

\includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{pic2}\captionof{figure}{the second figure}

}

For tables, just repace figure by table.

PSfrag – Inserting LATEX code in EPS graphics

• Use the includegraphics command defined by the graphicx packages toadd EPS figures to your new documents.

• Load the psfrag package with a usepackage command.

• Make sure that your EPS figures contain a simple “tag” word in eachposition that you would like a LATEX replacements. Use a single word,composed of unaccented letters and numbers.

• For each tag word in your EPS file, add a command to your your LATEXdocument to specify how this tag is to replaced, as follows:

\psfrag{tag}[posn][psposn][scale][rot]{LATEX text}

The tag will be replaced by the LATEX text.

PSfrag – To get it right!

Step 1: create larger and wider labels

12



Step 2: create the EPS file with Adobe PS printer and open in in WinEdt

%!PS-Adobe-3.0 EPSF-3.0%%Title: Book1%%Creator: PScript5.dll Version 5.2.2%%CreationDate: 2/2/2005 16:58:15%%For: mboon%%BoundingBox: 56 455 447 718%%Pages: 1%%Orientation: Portrait%%PageOrder: Ascend%%DocumentNeededResources: (atend)%%DocumentSuppliedResources: (atend)%%DocumentData: Clean7Bit%%TargetDevice: (Generic PostScript Printer) (2010.0)%%LanguageLevel: 2

12



Step 3: search for the label(s)

12



Step 4: remove all text between (label) and next S

1174 1241 M (5.6)S; : 1235 1167 86 86 rc F1S1DIFFFFFFE2 Ji1267 1241 M (6.2)S; /F0S2A F0 [42 0 0 -42 0 0 ] mFSF0S2A Ji859 1303 M (x)S: N 1391 745 377 195 rp C1 1 1 1 scol L ; 1 Lw solid N 1768 744 M 1390 744 IK0 0 0.5 1 scol 4 Lw solid N 1433 850 M 1509 850 I :; 0 0 0 1 scol /F1S75 F1 [117 0 0 -117 0 0 ] mFSF1S75 Ji1536 887 M (sinx)S0 Lj : 150 267 1657 1126 rc N 1776 284 M 167 284 I: [ 1 0 0 1 150 267 ] concat K

12



Step 5: create psfrag replacements in LATEX code.

\psfrag{t}{\makebox[0cm]{The chart of$\displaystyle\sqrt{\left|\frac{\sin x}{x}\right|}$}}\psfrag{sinx}{$\displaystyle\sqrt{\left|\frac{\sin x}{x}\right|}$}\psfrag{x}{$x$}\psfrag{y}{$\sin x$}\psfrag{0}{$0$}\psfrag{0.2}{$0.2$}

...

\psfrag{1}{$1$}\psfrag{1.2}{$1.2$}
