8 Formatting with LaTeX (08/35) 06/23/2016 Purdue University Zuyuan Wang Why LaTeX? --- Choosing the appropriate tool Drawing a gas turbine Formatting a document Can we draw a gas turbine with PowerPoint? Yes. Should we draw a gas turbine with PowerPoint? Probably No, because there are more advanced tools (e.g., SolidWorks, Pro/E) for this purpose. Can we format this document with MS Word? Yes. Should we format this document with MS Word? Probably No, because LaTeX could be a better option for this purpose.
9 Why LaTeX? --- MS Word v.s. LaTeX Components of writing a document: Author: Prepare contents, e.g., texts, figures, tables, equations, references, etc. Designer: Design page layout, margins, headers, footers, page numbers, etc. Typewriter: Specify font size, font style, line spacing, layout/numbering/cross-referencing of figures/tables/equations/references, etc. MS Word v.s. LaTeX: MS Word: Author + Designer + Typewriter LaTeX: Author + Partly Designer + Partly Typewriter LaTeX effectively separates content from formatting. The author focuses on the content. LaTeX takes care of the formatting via the many environments, which are well designed by many smart scientists and artists. Formatting with LaTeX (09/35) 06/23/2016 Purdue University Zuyuan Wang
10 Why LaTeX? --- MS Word v.s. LaTeX MS Word Advantages: Easy to learn WYSIWYG Large user group (> 1 billion) Disadvantages: Not free Poor file compatibility Large file size Hard to deal with large files (prone to crash) what-is-the-best-toolkit-for-writing-long-technical-texts LaTeX Advantages: Free and open-source Professional documents Small file size Easy to modify file types Easy to deal with large files (barely crash) Good file management Disadvantages: Steep learning curve Hard to customize (trust) Small user group (< 1 million) Formatting with LaTeX (10/35) 06/23/2016 Purdue University Zuyuan Wang

13 How to use LaTeX? --- Underlying Mechanism of LaTeX Formatting Formatting with LaTeX (13/35) 06/23/2016 Purdue University Zuyuan Wang S U R F
14 How to use LaTeX? --- Basic components of LaTeX source files Space: Spacebar, tab, \\ (line break), \newline (new line), \newpage (new page); \hspace{value} (horizontal space), \vspace{value} (vertical space); $\quad$, $\;$, $\!$, $\,$, etc. (space in mathematical expressions). Commands: Preceded by a backslash \, such as \textit{italic texts}, which produces italic texts. Could take no or some required and/or optional arguments. Many available environments \begin{ } \end{ }, similar to HTML. Contents: Including texts, mathematical expressions, figures, tables, references, appendices, headers, footers, page numbers, etc. Comments: Preceded by a percentage sign %.

15 How to use LaTeX? --- General structure of LaTeX source files Formatting with LaTeX (15/35) 06/23/2016 Purdue University Zuyuan Wang % General information about the file: This is my first LaTeX file. % The purpose is to show what a LaTeX file looks like. % Created by Zuyuan Wang, 06/23/2016. \documentclass[option, option, ]{class} % Preamble: List packages, declarations, new commands/environments, etc. \begin{document} % Front matter: Title, author(s), affiliation(s), date, etc. % Main matter: Texts, equations, figures, tables, references, etc. % Appendix: Additional information \end{document} % Ignored content
16 How to use LaTeX? --- Document class \documentclass[option, option, option, ]{class} Document classes: Class options: Article: Report: Book: Letter: Slides: 10pt, 11pt, 12pt: twocolumn: titlepage: leqno: fleqn: twoside: openright: for simple or short documents, including journal articles, and short reports. A good all-purpose class. for small books and longer reports containing chapters. for books. for letters, either business or personal. for making transparencies for projection on a screen. Specify the font size for the main text. The default is 10pt. Produces two-column pages. Causes the \maketitle to generate the title page on a separate page for the article class. Default for the book and report classes. Puts equation numbers on left side. They are on the right by default. Left-aligns equations. They are centered by default. Formats for printing on both sides of paper. Default for the book class, but not for any of the other classes. If the twoside option is used, chapters will begin on right hand pages. Default for the book class. The opposite of openright is openany. Formatting with LaTeX (16/35) 06/23/2016 Purdue University Zuyuan Wang
