[chapter]

  • For \chapter to be used, this option needs to be included. Section numbers, equation numbers etc. will be of the type 4.3 and similar.

Packages

\usepackage{paperhead}
This package defines the setting {paperhead} which includes the following commands:

\title{...} The document's title
\author{...} The document's author
\address{...} The author's address

  • If there are two author with the same address, write them together with \qquad in between. If there are two authors with different addresses, write them in the order auth1, addr1, auth2, addr2. They will automatically be placed in two columns. See the example. If authors and addresses don't fit in two columns, use footnotes instead, as per this example, which also includes a footnote to the title.

\subsubsection
is used if Abstract or Keywords should be included in the header. The package {paperhead} is included automatically in {artikel} and in {pm}
\usepackage{schoolbook}

This package changes the fonts so that PostScript-fonts (based on New Century Schoolbook) are used instead of the pixel-based that are default in TeX. Always use this for documents that are to be publiced, especially important if it should be presented in PDF-format.

Miscellaneous templates

Cover for report
The template shows covers as a seperate document. If you want to have the cover together with the report just type the setting {titlepage} in a seperate document and type the command \input{omslag} in the report document. Note that empty rows within {titlepage} are not accepted.

Document datasheet
The templates includes instructions.

Posting
The template is a dummy-document where the necessary changes (hopefully) are pretty obvious.

References under different headings
An example that shows how you can create several seperate reference sections in the same document in Bibtex.
