CTAN Update: uowthesistitlepage
Date: January 12, 2014 6:16:52 PM CET
Thomas Griffiths submitted an update to the
uowthesistitlepage
package.
Version number: 2.0
License type: lppl
Summary description: Typesets the title page of your thesis in
accordance with the UOW guidelines.
Announcement text:
Added \cosupervisor field. The field works the same as supervisor field, but is off by default. The field can either be below the supervisor field or next to it. When next to it the whole block of supervisors is centred as a single unit. The default position is below the supervisor field, but the adjacent style can be tuned on with the horizontal option in the preamble. Added the horizontal option. This uses a tabular environment to put two centred columns in a centred table to place the new \cosupervisor adjacent to the supervisor field. It is off by default but if you want it on just give horizontal as a option to the package in the preamble. Added the report option. Prints a nice little title page for lab reports and the like. Adjusted the declaration and dummy text accordingly. Fixed up the declaration page, reworded it to make it, in my opinion, a bit neater sounding. Also fixed the declaration for fullsubject, report and partialsubject so that it is for the completion of the assessment criteria of \class. Moved the \vspace{biggap} and \vspace*{fill} so that the University and School are at the bottom near the date. Removed some LaTeX crimes: \begin...{centering} end\{centering}\ to \centering, excess return lines. Italicised the requirements. Removed the bold from all but the title. Changed the wording — The degree is now conferred not awarded. Added new pagesize proportional measurements for the margins so that they scale and the title page now works for small pages (tested to A5, 12 pt). Removed lmodern package requirement. Added `Doctor of Philosophy' as the \degree definition if option phd (or PhD) is given to the package.
