LaTex Reference

LaTex Templates:

  • Article Template - I use this one for most of my work. It is a basic article style which should look nice both on the screen and when printed. Note, the default margins are big, but I like it this way.
  • Exam Template - a very basic exam template with both multiple choice, and short-answer sections. There are probably more fancy ways to do this, but this is easy.
  • Presentation Template - this template produces a nice PDF presentation slides. Please note that you may need to compile it twice. PDFLatex may not work - first generate a dvi, and then convert (latex slides.tex, dvi2ps slides.dvi ps2pdf slides.ps).
  • Thesis Template - a thesis template conforming to Montclair State University Standards. Your university may have different standards regarding margins, spacing and etc.

Polish Letters:

  • Ł is done with \L{} and \l{}
  • Ą and Ę and any other letters with a “tail” (ogonek) are done with the \k{} command (k stands for ogonek). So you will have \k{A}, \k{a}, \k{E} and etc..
  • Dotted letters like Ż need to be slashdotted (seriously) like this: \.z
  • Dashed letters like Ś, Ń or Ó need to be slash-quoted: \’s, \’o and etc..
