Latex

• Typesetting Tool
• Tex created by Donald E. Knuth
• LaTeX was originally written by Leslie Lamport
• In general, required information is included in
  LaTeX commands in , while optional information
  is included in square .

13
Latex

• File Structure
• Every input file must start with the command
• \documentclassoptionclass
• Document classes include
• article
• report
• letter
• book
• slides

14
Latex

• All the standard classes (except slides) accept
  the following options for selecting the typeface
  size (10 pt is default)
• 10pt, 11pt, 12pt
• All classes accept these options for selecting
  the paper size (default is letter)
• a4paper, a5paper, b5paper, letterpaper,
  legalpaper, executivepaper
• The options have to be separated by commas

15
Preamble

• We can add new feature to our document by the
  command
• \usepackage
• And after all setup commands are done, we start
  the document with the command
• \begindocument
• And at the end of the document we add the command
• \enddocument

16
Titles

• Provide this information in the preamble of your
  document
• \titleyourtitlehere
• \authoryournamehere
• \datecurrentdate
• Place a \maketitle command immediately after the
  \begindocument command.

17
Other useful pages

• \tableofcontents - generates TOC
• \listoftables - generates LOT
• \listoffigures - generates LOF

18
Sectioning

• \part
• \chapter (report and book class only)
• \section
• \subsection
• \subsubsection
• \paragraph
• \subparagraph

19
Example

• \chapterIntroduction
• \sectionMethodology
• \sectionMethodology
• Etc

Miktex Thai

• The current version is 2.7
• It does not support Thai latex package.
• Use xelatex instead.
• \usepackagefontspec
• \usepackagexunicode
• \usepackagexltxtra
• \defaultfontfeaturesScale1.10
• \setmainfontMappingtex-textBrowalliaUPC
• \XeTeXlinebreaklocale "th_TH"

22
Mathematical Typesetting

• We can insert equations by adding
• \beginequation
• \endequation
• The equation environment centres your equation on
  the page and places the equation number in the
  right margin.
• Or
• \beginalign
• \endalign
• \usepackageamsmath

23
Mathematical Typesetting

• \beginalign
• f_A(x)
• \begincases
• 1, \mboxif x \in A \\
• 0, \mboxif x \notin A
• \endcases
• \endalign

24
Mathematical Typesetting

• Mathematical text within a paragraph is entered
  between
• \( and \)
• and
• \beginmath and \endmath
• Mathematical text within a paragraph is entered
  between
• \ and \
• \begindisplaymath and \enddisplaymath
• and

36
Tables

• A table can be inserted by the command
• \begintabular and \endtabular
• But to make it complete we must cover it by the
  command \begintable and \endtable
• In the table environment, we can insert label (to
  be referred by other parts of the document) and
  caption

37
Tables

• \begintablet
• \caption?????????????????????????????????????????
  ???????????
• \begincenter
• \begintabularccc
• \hline
• ??????? (?????????)\multicolumn2c?????????
  ????????????? \\ see next table for
  explanation of this command
• \cline2-3
• ????????????????????????????????????????????????

Indenting

• The default for a LaTeX document is to indent new
  paragraphs unless the paragraph follows a section
  heading.
• If you want to change the indentation, use the
  \indent and \noindent commands respectively, at
  the beginning of the paragraph.
• If you wish to choose the amount of indentation
  for some reason, then use the command
• \setlength\parindentsize of indentation with
  unit

40
Including Graphics

• You use the \includegraphicsgraphicfile command
  to include your graphic file in your document.
• If you wish to control the size of the document,
  you can also specify the height and width
• \includegraphicsheight2in, width
  3ingraphicfile.
