Template for T-110.557 Fall 2004
We use Latex for typesetting the seminar papers. Please use the templates given on this page when writing your paper.
The templates used in this course are:
| File | Comment |
|---|---|
| template.tex | LaTeX template file to use, modify this file to contain your paper.
Remember to rename your own file to e.g. |
| mypicture1.eps | For demonstrating how pictures can be included in your LaTeX-file. |
| hip2004.cls | A class file. |
Writing the paper in LaTeX will actually be quite easy when using the given template.
PS and PDF formats can be produced from the latex template (almost) automatically.
- To create a dvi file (you can view the file with
xdvi template.dvi):
latex template; latex template; - To create a PS file:
dvips -t a4 -Ppdf -o template.ps template - To create a PDF file:
ps2pdf template.ps - Depending on your dvips and GhostScript versions, you may get too much or too little whitespace
between some words or characters.
ps2pdf -dCompatibilityLevel=1.3 template.psshould help.
You really have to run latex twice, since some updates
have to be preprocessed by LaTeX in order to show up.
The result when running these commands on the current template looks like this: template.ps, template.pdf.
