% Acknowledgments

% Thanks to all those on c.t.t whose suggestions made this version more
% useful. 
%
% Alan Munn for the distinction between base font and font package and
% for suggesting ``expected functionality'' packages on sectioning,
% long tables, headers, and double spacing, and links to FAQ and CTAN.
%
% Lars Madsen, Will Robertson, Robin Fairbairns and others for asking
% for the center environment in tables and figures to be replaced with
% the \centering command (I still disagree, but WTF :-)
%
% Tsy for spotting a typo in the table code sample.
%
% Rob Felty and Domink Wass for pointing me at Winston Chang's

% The weird values for the geometry are picked to maximise the space
% used on an A4 sheet in an HPDJ 1220C inkjet printer which cannot
% print beyond 15mm off the bottom of a portrait sheet (ie 15mm beyond
% the RH edge of a landscape sheet). The various margins may need
% twiddling to lie about their size because the offsets used in
% texconfig seem to get ignored in landscape mode. The HPLJ5MP is much
% more forgiving...but you'll have to experiment for your own printer.

\subsection{Basic document structure}

Here's the skeleton of a \LaTeX\ document. These three lines are
\emph{compulsory}: your document will not work without them:

\begin{Verbatim}[frame=single,fontsize=\small,commandchars=!<>]
\documentclass{article}
!comment your preamble goes here (extra setups, if any)
\begin{document}
!comment your document text goes here
\end{document}
\end{Verbatim}

\begin{itemize*}
  \item The document class name must be one of \verb+book+,
    \verb+article+, or \verb+report+, or one you have
    installed yourself (eg \verb+thesis+, \verb+memoir+, etc).
  \item There are paper size options \verb+a4paper+
    (210\thinspace mm$\times$297\thinspace mm) and \verb+letterpaper+
    (8½$''\times$11$''$) and others (eg \verb+a5paper+).
  \item There are base type size options \verb+10pt+ (the default),
    \verb+11pt+, and \verb+12pt+.
\end{itemize*}

\subsection{Front matter}

The \textbf{preamble} is where you specify any extra \textbf{packages}
(\LaTeX\ plugins) such as typefaces or special formatting
requirements, and where you put any changes to standard features.

\begin{Verbatim}[frame=single,fontsize=\small,commandchars=!<>]
\documentclass[a4paper,11pt]{report}
\usepackage{charter,graphicx}
\setlength{\parindent}{1em}
\begin{document}
\title!comment{your document title!revert}
\author!comment{your name!revert}
\date!comment{date of publication!revert}
\maketitle
\begin{abstract}
!comment the paragraphs of the abstract go here
\end{abstract}
\tableofcontents
!comment rest of the document goes here
\end{document}
\end{Verbatim}

In a typical report or article, the title, author, date, abstract
(summary), and table of contents (optional) all go at the start,
followed by your text. 

Leave a blank line between paragraphs. This does \emph{not} mean you
get a blank line typeset, it just means `start a new paragraph here'.
\LaTeX\ will format your text according to the document class and
packages you are using.

\subsection{Sections and cross-references}

Sections get numbered automatically in bold type, and get included in
the Table of Contents (if any). Numbering can be turned off
selectively. Section heading layout can be modified with the
\textsf{sectsty}, \textsf{titlesec}, and other packages.

\begin{Verbatim}[frame=single,fontsize=\small,commandchars=!<>]
!comment (Preamble, titling, and abstract as above)
\tableofcontents
\section!comment{heading of a section!revert}
!comment text for the section goes here
...as shown in section \ref{blah}.
\subsection!comment{heading of a subsection!revert}
!comment text for the subsection goes here
\section!comment{heading of a new section!revert}
\label{blah} !comment make up a name for the label
!comment text for the section goes here
\end{document}
\end{Verbatim}

For cross-references, use \verb+\label{...}+ to label the target 
and \verb+\ref{...}+ and/or \verb+\pageref{...}+ to refer to
it. Make up the label values: \LaTeX\ will use them to work
out the right numbers to print.\\
\example{...\ttfamily section \verb+\ref{blah}+ on p.\\
\verb+\pageref{blah}+.}\gives{...section 3 on p.9}.

\subsection{Typefaces}

\LaTeX's default typeface is Computer Modern. There is a selection of
other typeface packages (use them in your Preamble):

{\footnotesize\tabcolsep4pt
\def\ff#1{\fontfamily{#1}\selectfont}
\begin{tabular}{l>{\ttfamily}l|l>{\ttfamily}l@{}}
\ff{ptm}Times&mathptmx&\ff{pcr}Courier&courier\\
\ff{ppl}Palatino&mathpazo&\ff{pag}\scriptsize Avant Garde&avant\\
\ff{pbk}Bookman&bookman&\ff{phv}Helvetica&helvet\\
\ff{bch}Charter&charter&\ff{pzc}Zapf Chancery&chancery\\
\ff{put}Utopia&utopia&\fontencoding{OT1}\ff{pnr}Pandora&pandora\\
\multicolumn3l{\ff{pnc}New Century Schoolbook}&newcent\\
\end{tabular}
}

Dozens of others are available, including mathematical fonts.  To
switch to a sans-serif type family (eg Helvetica, Avant Garde), use
\verb+\sffamily+ in your text. To change font for a word or phrase,
use these commands (they can be nested---see below):

{\small
\begin{tabular}{l>{\ttfamily\char'134 text}l<{\char'173 Hello\char'175}@{}>{\gives\bgroup}l<{ Hello\egroup}}
Italics&it&\itshape\\
Boldface&bf&\bfseries\\
Smallcaps&sc&\scshape\\
Sans-serif&sf&\sffamily~~\\
Monospace&tt&\ttfamily\\
\end{tabular}}

\example \verb+\textit{\textbf{\textsf+\linebreak
\verb+{bold ital sans}}}+
\gives{\textit{\textbf{\textsf{bold ital sans}}}}

Font sizing is automatic for titles, headings, and footnotes. There
are named step-size commands (in points, relative to the base size):

{\small
\begin{tabular}{>{\ttfamily\char'134}lrrr}
normalsize&10&11&12\\\hline\vrule height1.1em width0pt
tiny&5&6&7\\
scriptsize&6&7&8\\
footnotesize&7&8&9\\
small&9&10&11\\
large&11&12&14\\
Large&12&14&17\\
LARGE&14&17&20\\
huge&17&20&24\\
Huge&20&24&28\\
\end{tabular}
}

but you can specify an exact size with
\verb+\fontsize{+\texttt{\textit{pp}}\verb+}{+\texttt{\textit{bb}}\verb+}\selectfont+
for any point size (\textit{pp}) on any baseline (\textit{bb}) you
need. Group (enclose) the command \emph{and} its applicable text in curly braces to
prevent it affecting the rest of the document. For wider line-spacing
(eg in theses) use the \textsf{setspace} package. You can also use
\linebreak colour with the 
\\\textsf{xcolor} package and\hfil \smash{\raisebox{.5ex}{\Huge 
\textcolor[HTML]{2F50AD}{G}%
\textcolor[HTML]{B32F17}{o}% 
\textcolor[HTML]{F3C20B}{o}%
\textcolor[HTML]{2F50AD}{g}% 
\textcolor[HTML]{48C847}{l}%
\textcolor[HTML]{B32F17}{e}}}%
% web colour for l was 567122
% web colour for o2 was CAB340
\\the \verb+\color{+\texttt{\textit{colorname}}\verb+}+ command.

\subsection{Lists}

There are three basic kinds: \textbf{itemized} lists (random order
with bullets); \textbf{enumerated} lists (in order with digits or
letters); and \textbf{descriptive} lists (topic-and-explanation
format).

\begingroup\tiny
\renewcommand{\labelitemi}{\textbullet}
\leftmargini=2em
\setlength{\tabcolsep}{4pt}
\begin{tabular}{%@{}%
    p{.22\columnwidth}|%
    p{.28\columnwidth}|%
    p{.33\columnwidth}@{}}
\begin{Verbatim}
\begin{itemize}

\item Chocolate
\end{itemize}
\end{Verbatim}

\begin{Verbatim}[commandchars=!()]
\begin{enumerate}
\item Mix together
\item Boil to 112!textdegree()C
\item Stir and cool
\end{enumerate}
\end{Verbatim}
&
\begin{Verbatim}
\begin{description}
\item[Fudge] is fun...
\item[Broccoli] sucks...
\item[Exercise] is good
\end{description}
\end{Verbatim}
\\\hline
\begin{itemize}
\item 1lb Sugar
\item ½pt Cream
\item Chocolate
\end{itemize}
&
\begin{enumerate}
\item Mix together
\item Boil to 112\textdegree C
\item Stir and cool
\end{enumerate}
&\tiny
\begin{description}
\item[Fudge] is fun but fattening if made too often.
\item[Broccoli] sucks, period.
\item[Exercise] is good for you if taken daily and not to extremes.
\end{description}
\end{tabular}
\endgroup
You can nest lists inside each other. See packages like
\textsf{paralist} and \textsf{mdwlist} to control list formatting.

\subsection{Tables and figures}

Formal tables and figures \emph{float} (change position to fill
available space) so they may not be printed where you typed them. 

\begin{Verbatim}[frame=single,fontsize=\footnotesize,commandchars=!<>]
\begin{table}
\caption{Mean growth rate and intakes 
of supplement, milk, and water for 4 
diets.}
\label{dietgrowth}\centering
\begin{tabular}{|l|r|r|r|r|}\hline
&Growth&Supplement&Milk&Water\\
Supplement&rate&intake&intake&intake\\
&(g/day)&(g/day)&(ml/kg$^{0.75}$)&
(ml/kg$^{0.75}$)\\\hline 
Lucerne &145&450&10.5&144\\\hline 
Sesbania&132&476& 9.2&128\\\hline 
Leucaena&128&364& 8.9&121\\\hline 
None    & 89&  0& 9.8&108\\\hline 
\end{tabular}
\end{table}
\end{Verbatim}

None    & 89&  0& 9.8&108\\\hline 
\end{tabular}
\end{center}
Packages like \textsf{longtable} and \textsf{array} can help
with more complex table formats.

\subsection{Footnotes, citations, references, and indexes (back matter)}
\setcounter{footnote}{1} 
Footnotes are done with a simple command,\footnote{Like this.} see
below.  Citations using BIB\TeX{} (Patashnik, 1988) are also easy (see
[2], \sect7.4.2) and there are packages for more complex formats for
journals and publishers. You can add indexes with the \verb+\index+
command and the \textsf{makeindex} program.

\subsection{What's this all about? What's \LaTeX?}

\LaTeX\ is a document preparation system for the \TeX\ typesetting
program. It enables you to produce publication-quality output with
great accuracy and consistency. \LaTeX\ works on any computer and
produces industry-standard PS or PDF documents. It is available both
in free (open-source) and commercial implementations. \LaTeX\ can be
used for any kind of document, but it is especially suited to those with complex
structure, repetitive formatting, mathematics\textsuperscript1,
technical stability, and dimensional accuracy.

\subsubsection{Syntax (how to type \LaTeX\ commands)}

\begin{itemize}
  \item \textbf{All \LaTeX\ commands begin with a backslash}.\\
    \example \verb+\tableofcontents+\endexample
  \item \textbf{If a command needs text to work
    with, it goes in curly braces}.\\
    \example \verb+\title{Global Warming}\author{George W Bush}+\endexample
  \item \textbf{If options are used, they go in square brackets first}.\\
    \example \verb+\documentclass[a4paper,11pt]{book}+\endexample
  \item \textbf{Space after commands \emph{without} braces gets suppressed}.\\
    \example \verb+Copyright \copyright +\texttt{\number\year} 
    \gives{Copyright \copyright \number\year}~\nobox\\
    To prevent this, put empty curly braces after the command.\\ 
    \example \verb+Copyright \copyright{} +\texttt{\number\year} 
    \gives{Copyright \copyright{} \number\year}~\yesbox
  \item \textbf{Curly braces are also used to restrict the scope of
    effects inside them}.\\
    \example \verb+Some {\tiny little} word+ \gives{Some {\tiny little} word}
\end{itemize}

\subsubsection{Creating and typesetting your document}

\begin{enumerate*}\setlength{\fboxsep}{1pt}
\item Create your document using any suitable plain-text editor
  with \LaTeX\ controls, eg \textit{\TeX shop} (Mac), \textit{\TeX
    nicCenter} (Win), \textit{Kile} (Linux), \textit{Emacs} (all);
\item Save the file with a name ending in \verb+.tex+
  (\emph{never} use spaces in filenames!);
\item Use the toolbar buttons or menu items in your editor to typeset
  and display the document;\label{typeset}
\item Make any changes needed in your original document and repeat
  step \ref{typeset}. 
\end{enumerate*}
