1 very How to get started in L A TEX Florence Bouvet Department of Economics Sonoma State University March 26, / 29
2 Introduction very L A TEX is a document preparation system for high-quality typesetting. L A TEX is not a word processor! Instead, L A TEX encourages authors not to worry too much about the appearance of their documents, but to concentrate on getting the right content. 2 / 29
3 Advantages very On the other hand, there are certain advantages to the markup language approach: ˆ The document looks professional. The layout, fonts, tables, etc. is consistent throughout. ˆ Mathematical formulae can be easily typeset. ˆ Indexes, footnotes, references, etc., are generated easily. ˆ It encourages correctly structured documents. ˆ It is available (and transportable) across many platforms (Windows, Mac, Unix and Linux are all supported). 3 / 29
4 Disadvantages very ˆ One can t see the final result straight away. PDF is the final result. ˆ One needs to know the necessary commands for LaTeX markup. ˆ It can sometimes be difficult to obtain a certain look. ˆ It might be less convenient to add comments to one s coauthors. 4 / 29
5 very Basics very What you need to get started: ˆ MikTex ( it s free! ˆ an Editor, such as WinEdt. ( $40 for an individual educational license. ˆ an example of a TeX file to follow. 5 / 29
6 very L A TEX practically forces you to declare structure within your documents. Let s take the example of the structure of an article. Preamble This is everything from the start of the Latex file to the \begin{document} command. It contains commands and packages that affect the entire document. Here is for example what I wrote to start this introduction to L A TEX. \documentclass[12pt, letterpaper]{article} produce \setlength{\topmargin}{-0.8in} \setlength{\textwidth}{6.6in} \usepackage{hyperref} \usepackage{indentfirst} \renewcommand{\baselinestretch}{1.24} 6 / 29
7 very The class is given by the \documentclass{...} command. Valid LaTeX document classes include: ˆ article ˆ report ˆ letter ˆ book ˆ slides Top Matter At the beginning of most documents will be information about the document itself, such as the title and date, and also information about the authors, such as name, address, etc. \title {How to get started in L A TEX} \author {Florence Bouvet} \date{today } \maketitle 7 / 29
8 very Main body and Sectioning Commands The commands for inserting sections are quite intuitive. Command Level \part{a title without number} -1 \chapter{a title without number} 0 \section{a title without number} 1 \subsection{a title without number} 2 \subsubsection{a title without number} 3 \paragraph{a title without number} 4 \subparagraph{a title without number} 5 ˆ Numbering will be done automatically. ˆ L A TEX has a command that makes it easy to manage references (for sections, tables, figures). 8 / 29
9 very For example, at the end of the introduction: The remainder of the paper is organized as follows. The Beveridge curve is derived in Section \ref{model}. Section \ref{conclusion} concludes. And later in the paper : \section{derivation of the Beveridge curve} \label{model} \section{national and regional Beveridge curves in Europe} \label{figures} 9 / 29
10 very Bibliography Bibtex allows you to store all your references in an external, flat-file database. A Bibtex database is stored as a.bib file. The structure of the file is also quite simple. An example of a Bibtex author = Michel Goossens and Frank Mittlebach and Alexander Samarin, title = The Latex Companion, year = 1993, publisher = Addison-Wesley, address = Reading, Massachusetts } 10 / 29
11 very Getting your Latex document to use your.bib file. At the end of your Latex file (that is, after the content, but before \end{document}), you need to place the following commands: \bibliographystyle{plain} \bibliography {sample} If you want your citation to have a different style, you should use the Natbib package. In fact, it can supersede Latex s own citation commands, as Natbib allows the user to easily switch between Harvard or numeric. The first job is to add the following to your preamble in order to get Latex to use the Natbib package: \usepackage{natbib} 11 / 29
12 very Also, you need to change the bibliography style file to be used. Let s say we want to use AER style. We need to edit the appropriate line at the bottom of the file so that it reads: \bibliographystyle{aer}. Once done, it is basically a matter of altering the existing \cite commands to display the type of citation you want: Citation command Natbib output \citet{goossens93} Goossens et al. (1993) \citep{goossens93} (Goossens et al., 1993) \citet*{goossens93} Goossens, Mittlebach, and Samarin (1993) \citep*{goossens93} (Goossens, Mittlebach, and Samarin, 1993) 12 / 29
13 very Text If you use an editor such as WinEdt, it s quite easy to find accents (in the international tool folder), maths symbols, Greek letters, etc... Getting the right font size is also quite easy: Command \tiny \scriptsize \footnotesize \small \normalsize \large \Large \LARGE \huge \HUGE Output Size Size Size Size Size Size Size Size Size Size 13 / 29
14 very List Lists often appear in documents, especially academic, as their purpose is often to present information in a clear and concise fashion. List structures in Latex are simply environments which essentially come in three flavors: itemize, enumerate and description. All lists follow the basic format: \begin {list type} \item The first item \item The second item \item The third item, etc... \end {list type} 14 / 29
15 very Footnotes The footnote facility is easy to use. The command you need is: \footnote{text}. Do not leave a space between the command the word where you wish the footnote marker to appear, otherwise Latex will process that space and will leave the output not looking as intended. 15 / 29
16 very ˆ One of my biggest frustrations in Word and Powerpoint! ˆ The tabular is an environment, designed for formatting your data into nicely arranged tables. ˆ Use the macro Excel2Latex in Excel to convert your Excel table into L A TEX. ˆ The following symbols are available to describe the table columns: l left-justified column c centered column r right-justified column pwidth paragraph column with text vertically aligned at the top mwidth paragraph column with text vertically aligned in the middle bwidth paragraph column with text vertically aligned at the bottom vertical line double vertical line Once in the environment & column separator \\ start new row \hline horizontal line 16 / 29
17 very OLS OLS OLS 2SLS ERDF per capita ** ** ** (0.0002) (0.0002) (0.0003) (0.0012) Interaction Poor*ERDF (0.0005) Initial GVA per capita *** *** *** in each period (0.004) (0.004) (0.024) (0.036) Lagged GVA per capita 0.01*** (0.003) Lagged Unemployment rate 0.009** (0.004) Lagged Share of agriculture *** in employment (0.003) regions dummies yes yes yes yes First Stage R-squared R-squared Obs / 29
18 very Here is the code to make this table \begin{tabular}{ lcccc } \hline & OLS & OLS & OLS & 2SLS \\ ERDF per capita & ** & & ** & **\\ & (0.0002) & (0.0002) & (0.0003) & (0.0012) \\ Interaction Poor*ERDF & & & & \\ & & (0.0005) & & \\ Initial GVA per capita & *** & *** & *** & \\ in each period & (0.004) & (0.004) & (0.024) & (0.036)\\ Lagged GVA per capita & & & 0.01*** & \\ & & & (0.003) & \\ Lagged Unemployment rate & & & 0.009** &\\ & & & (0.004) & \\ Lagged Share of agriculture & & & *** &\\ in employment & & & (0.003) &\\ regions dummies & yes & yes & yes & yes\\ First Stage R-squared & & & & 0.671\\ R-squared & & & & \\ Obs. & 323 & 323 & 217 & 156 \\ \hline \end{tabular} 18 / 29
19 very In many respects, importing images is easy, once you have the right format. The most common format is Encapsulated Postscript (EPS). Once the pictures are in EPS, you need to put \usepackage{graphicx} in the preamble of your document. The syntax for using graphicx is: \begin{figure}[h] \centerline{\includegraphics[scale=0.5]{latexkopka.eps}} \caption{a Guide to LATEX}\label{kopka} \end{figure} This is what I wrote to add Figure 4. Need for to DVI the file and then DVI to PDF. 19 / 29
20 very One can also use PDF files for figures. Then, in the preamble, you need to replace the command \usepackage{graphicx} by \usepackage[pdftex]{graphicx}. You can specify where in the text you want the figure to be. Specifier Permission h Place the float here, i.e., at the same point it occurs in the source text. t Position at the top of the page. b Position at the bottom of the page. p Put on a special page for floats only.! Override internal parameters Latex uses for determining good float positions. Use \listoffigures to add a list of the figures in the beginning of the document. When a label is declared within a float environment (table or figure), the \ref will return the respective fig/table number (although, it must occur after the caption). When declared outside, it will give the section number. 20 / 29
21 very To create a fraction, you must use the \frac{numerator}{denominator} command. Here is an example: \frac{6xˆ{3}+36xˆ{2}}{(x+4)ˆ{2}} 6x 3 +36x 2 (x+4) 2 Powers and indices are mathematically equivalent to superscripts and subscripts in normal text mode. The carat (ˆ) character is used to raise something, and the underscore ( ) is for lowering. How to use them is best shown by example: xˆ{2n} n {i, j, t} xˆ{2i} {3j} x 2n n i,j,t x3j 2i 21 / 29
22 very You might need to use another type of brackets with maths: [ ] d \frac{d}{dx}\big [\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}\big ] f (x) ( dx ) g(x) Y L \bigg(\frac{y}{l}\bigg)\frac{l}{pop} L pop ) \left(\frac{2x}{5y}\right) ( 2x 5y 22 / 29
23 very If you have an equation that fits on one line: this is the code you should use: d dx [f (x)n ] = n(f (x) n 1 )f (x) (1) \begin {equation} \label{...} \frac{d}{dx}[f (x)ˆ{n}] = n(f (x)ˆ{n 1})f (x) \end {equation} 23 / 29
24 very If you have an equation that does not fit on one line, you should use \multline instead of the \equation command: ln ERDF i,t = β o + β 1 lngva i,t 1 + β 2 ln Unemployment i,t 1 + this is the code you should use: β 3 ln Agriculture i,t 1 + µ t + ε i,t (2) \begin {multline} \label{erdf} \ln ERDF {i,t} =\beta {0} + \beta {1}\ln GVA {i,t-1} + \beta {2}\ln Unemployment {i,t-1}+ \\ \beta {3}\ln Agriculture {i,t-1} + \mu {t}+ \varepsilon {i,t} \end {multline} 24 / 29
25 very ˆ Beamer is a L A TEX class for presentations. ˆ A beamer presentation is created like any other L A TEX document: It has a preamble and a body, the body contains sections and subsections, the different slides (called frames in beamer) are put in environments (maths, figures, etc), they are structured using itemize and enumerate environments, and so on. ˆ The layout, the colors, and the fonts used in a presentation can easily be changed globally. 25 / 29
26 very ˆ Easy to convert your paper (if written with L A TEX) into a presentation. ˆ The final output is typically a pdf-file. So you do not have to worry about which version of the presentation program might be installed there. Also, your presentation is going to look exactly the way it looked on your computer. 26 / 29
27 very A Guide to LATEX: Preparation for Beginners and Advanced Users, Helmut Kopka. This book is exactly what it says - geared for both beginners and advanced users; it is especially helpful for bibtex. ISBN Figure: A Guide to LATEX 27 / 29
28 very The Latex Companion by Michel Goossens, Frank Mittelbach and Alexander Samarin. This one is also very good, but I found that it made more sense after I had been using Latex for a while. ISBN Figure: Latex Companion Book 28 / 29
29 very ˆ The Not So Short Introduction to L A TEX2: Or L A TEX2 in 90 minutes by Tobias Oetiker Hubert Partl, Irene Hyna and Elisabeth Schlegl: this PDF file is available on my website. It s a great reference, easy to read. ˆ this website gives you very basic stuff, but it s quite useful for true beginners ˆ if you are looking for a package, a command, a bibliography style, this website provides you access to the Comprehensive TEX Archive Network. ˆ to learn more about Beamer to create presentations: 29 / 29
