Study of LATEX for

1
 What is LaTex?
 LATEX is a tool used to create
professional-looking documents.
 It is based on the WYSIWYM (what you
see is what you mean) idea.
 Meaning you only have focus on the
contents of your document and the
computer will take care of the formatting.

2
 Why learn LATEX?
 Used all over the world for scientific
documents, books, as well as many other
forms of publishing.
 Not only can it create beautifully typeset
documents, but it allows users to very
quickly tackle the more complicated parts
of typesetting, such as
 inputting mathematics,
 creating tables of contents,
 referencing and creating bibliographies
 consistent layout across all sections.
3
 Why learn LATEX?
 One of the most important reasons people
use LATEX is that it separates the
content of the document from the style.
 Means that once you have written the
content of your document, you can change
its appearance with ease.
 Similarly, you can create one style of
document.
 Scientific journals to create templates for
submissions.
4
 Why learn LATEX?
 These templates have a pre-made layout
meaning that only the content needs to be
added.
 There are hundreds of templates available
for everything from CVs to slideshows.

 Comment
 Comment will start with %
 Comment content will not be printed in
the document.

11
 Bold, italics and underlining

 Bold:
 Bold text in LaTeX is written with the
\textbf{...} command.
 Italics:
 Italicised text in LaTeX is written with the
\textit{...} command.
 Underline:
 Underlined text in LaTeX is written with
the \underline{...} command.

 Lists
 Unordered lists
 Item1
 Item2
 Item3
 Ordered lists
1. Item1
2. Item2
3. Item3

Parameter Position
h Place the float here,
i.e., approximately at the same point it
occurs in the source text (however,
not exactly at the spot)
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.
