Revision as of 11:24, 24 March 2017

Time Narration
00:01 Welcome to this spoken tutorial on Report Writing in LaTeX. I am calling it “latek” and not “latex”.
00:09 My name is Kannan Moudgalya.
00:13 In this tutorial, we will learn how to write a document.
00:19 In particular, how to Use ‘report’ and ‘article’ classHow to create sections Automate the numbering of sections Create Table of contents and How to create the title page.
00:38 I am creating this tutorial on our less than 10,000 Rupee laptop.
00:44 And, I am using Ubuntu Linux, TeXworks and LaTeX.
00:51 You can also use TeXworks on Windows or Mac - the method is identical.
00:57 You can use LaTeX by itself, without TeXworks also.
01:02 You are welcome to use more expensive Linux computers also!
01:07 The prerequisites to learn this are the following:Spoken tutorials that introduce LaTeXThe file report dot tex Knowledge of the side-by-side method, required to practise this tutorial.
01:23 Information on all of the above are available on our website: spoken tutorial dot org.
01:32 Let me go to the TeXworks window.
01:36 I have already opened the file report.tex. Please download this file and practise along with me.
01:44 I am using 12 point as the font size, ‘a4 paper’ and ‘article’ class.
01:55 I am using the geometry package to set margins, through the 'usepackage' command.
02:02 A reverse slash should come at the beginning of every command.
02:07 Although I will not say it explicitly, you should not forget to put the reverse slash.
02:13 Similarly, I will not explicitly mention braces, but you may have to use them.
02:20 Please reproduce exactly what is done in the video.
02:25 The usepackage command has optional parameters inside square brackets.
02:31 The name of the package is within braces.
02:35 I have set horizontal and vertical margins of 4.5 cm each.
02:41 Look at the top left hand corner of the "TexWorks" window.
02:47 In case pdfLaTeX is not already chosen, please select it from the pull down menu.
02:55 To the left, there is a green circle with an arrow.
02:59 Click the arrow and compile this file.
03:04 We get the file ‘report.pdf’ shown on the right hand side.
03:09 Look at the titles - section, sub-section and sub-sub-section in the output file.
03:18 These are created using identical commands given in the source file.
03:23 Observe the distinctive features of these section titles in the 'pdf' file.
03:30 The sizes of these titles are created proportionately and automatically.
03:37 Also, the section title is the largest and the sub-sub-section title is the smallest.
03:45 Irrespective of blank lines in the source file, the output remains the same.
03:50 Let me delete one line here. Compile.
03:55 There is no change here.
03:57 Let me now change the paper size to a5.
04:02 This will reduce the width of every line in the output.
04:06 Let me compile the text as we did before.
04:10 Let me magnify it by pressing control + so that you can see the output clearly.
04:17 Let me bring it to the centre.
04:20 For the rest of this tutorial, we will use the a5 paper only. You are welcome to change it to a4.
04:28 Note that I did not save the file. This is because TexWorks saves the file automatically before compilation.
04:37 Let us change the font to a smaller one of 10 point and compile.
04:44 Hey, the font size has become smaller - should we be surprised? But, proportional sizing and spacing remain the same.
04:54 Let me change the font back to 12 point.
04:59 We will now discuss another important aspect of section titles.
05:04 It is the automatic generation of section numbers.
05:09 To illustrate this further, I will add a new section called ‘Inserted section’.
05:18 On compilation, it appears here with a correct number in sequence. Thus, numbering also is automatically taken care of by LaTeX.
05:29 LaTeX creates table of contents through a file with extension “toc”.
05:36 Let me add ‘table of contents’, one word, here.
05:42 Compile.
05:44 The word ‘Contents’ appears in the output but nothing else.
05:50 Let me compile once again.
05:53 All the titles are now present in the table of contents along with page numbers.
05:59 You have to compile it the third time to get the correct page numbers.
06:05 Why three times? Please see the assignment.
06:09 Just one word, ‘table of contents’, is what is needed.
06:14 What an amazing capability in LaTeX!
06:17 This is achieved through a file with extension “toc” that LaTeX maintains.
06:24 This multi pass compilation procedure works with changes in titles as well.
06:30 Let me change the section title to ‘Modified section’.
06:36 Let me compile it. Table of Contents does not change.
06:42 Let me compile it once more and solve this problem.
06:46 Now we have a modified section here.
06:49 We will create a title for this document. Let me do it here, just before ‘begin document’.
06:57 I will create a ‘title’, ‘Author’ information and the ‘date’ as follows.
07:13 So, I have added these three commands.
07:17 Order in which these come or the place where they come does not matter.
07:22 But they should come before the begin document command.
07:26 Don’t forget the reverse slash in all the commands.
07:31 Double slash here means the next line. We compile it.
07:38 There are no changes in the ‘pdf’ file.
07:42 The reason is that I have not told LaTeX what to do with this information.
07:47 So, I add the ‘make title’ command, one word, just after the 'begin document'.
07:55 Let me compile it.
07:58 The title appears in the output, at the place where I put this command
08:03 namely, at the beginning of the document.
08:07 We will now change the class of this document from article to report.
08:15 Simultaneously, we define a chapter with this command: 'Chapter First Chapter'.
08:24 Report style requires at least one chapter.
08:27 Let us compile it and see the output.
08:31 Notice the changes in the output.
08:35 Title appears on a whole page that has no number.
08:40 Contents also appear on an entire page, with page number 1.
08:47 Please pause here and find out how many entries in 'Contents' are wrong.
08:54 Let us go to the next page. Notice the way the chapter begins.
09:00 How many distinguishing features can you identify? You should find at least five.
09:08 Let us compile it for the second time.
09:12 Observe that the Contents page now has the correct information. The page numbers are correct now.
09:21 Let us add a chapter, called ‘New Chapter’.
09:32 Compile it.
09:34 Let me compile once again and see it coming on a new page.
09:47 Insert the command appendix before this new chapter.
09:53 On compilation, you see the word “Appendix” appearing.
09:59 The chapter number is A.
10:02 Let us go to the slides now.
10:05 Let us summarize what we learnt in this tutorial.
10:08 Writing a document in LaTeX Automatically creating chapter and section titles Automatic numberingTable of contents and title page creation Creating Appendix.
10:21 Let me give some assignments.
10:24 This assignment is on a4 paper and letter paper.
10:29 Please pause the video, read the slide and do the assignment.
10:35 This assignment is on font size.
10:41 This is on report dot toc.
10:47 This is on number of compilations.
10:52 This is on the location of Table of Contents.
10:59 This assignment is on the use of the 'chapter' command in 'report' and 'article'.
11:07 This assignment is on the effect of the 'appendix' command in the 'report' class.
11:15 This is the same as the previous assignment, but in the 'article' class.
11:22 This is on the geometry package.
11:27 This assignment is on LaTeX classes, in general.
11:34 With this, we have come to the end of this tutorial.
11:38 This video summarizes the Spoken Tutorial project. If you do not have bandwidth, you may download and watch it.
11:46 We conduct workshops using Spoken Tutorials. Give certificates. Please contact us.
