Intro to LATEX
What is LATEX?
A typesetting program
KLBarcamp 2010
Intro to LATEX
Why we need LATEX?
Depends on your purpose
For me,it helps me when I need to writing articles which
contains cross-referencing to article
Fortunately, it is not only limited to that ...(comes obsession!)
KLBarcamp 2010
Intro to LATEX
What LATEX can do ?
For students
Writing research articles, assignments
Final year project report, theses/dissertations
It’s your call
For professionals
Writing technical reports, codes documentations
Resume :-)
Business cards, books
The rest up to you . . .

Platform
Platform for LATEX
Almost every major operating systems i.e Linux, Windows and Mac
OS have LATEX applications.
Windows for example, using MikTeX
Mac OS using MacTeX
Linux uses TexLive
KLBarcamp 2010
Intro to LATEX
Platform
How we can actually write in LATEX?
Using normal text editors (notepad, gvim/vim, emacs)
If you’re running Windows, you can get a copy of WinEdt and
LEd(also, check on TeXworks)
If you plan to write on notepad, go ahead, but you need to
compile it later on

listing package I
To use listing, first we have to include the package, this can be
done by putting
\include{listings}
at the header of the LATEX main file.
Later;
\ begin { l s t l i s t i n g }
\ end { l s t l i s t i n g }

pygmentize I
pygmentize is not in the LATEX package, however it is able to
generate .tex code for your inclusion. Later, we include the
intended code within Verbatim (it’s capital V).
The syntax is :
pygmentize -l python -f latex -O full -o pycode.tex pycode.py

Arabic and Jawi characters
Writing Arabic texts/Jawi
Mapping characters
As far as I know, there are several Arabic package which
provides support to LATEX
I only comfortable with arabtex package, and alqalam if you
need
arabtex provides support to Arabic characters, including Jawi
(Malay version)
alqalam if you want to print Quran verses

What’s up with Math?
Among the most frequent users (or must use) or LATEX are
math scholars/students
We, the IT people may rarely use this package unless you’re
doing math analysis of say, certain algorithm, or for social
science when you want to include your statistical formulas.
Math package provided by American Mathematical Society
(AMS).

Writing book
Book class
Instead of putting
\ documentclass [ a r t i c l e ]
we put
\ d o c u m e n t c l a s s [ book ]
in the preamble.
It really helps when the numbering of chapters, sections,
subsections, figures and tables being done automatically
In addition to that, the table of contents and table of figures
as well
Not only that, you are also able to simply create indexes and
glossaries

Usually being used by research students, or people who reads
academic papers
Helps in term of cross-referencing and sorting citation
(especially IEEE style)
If you look at Springerlink/ACM/IEEE online databases, you
will aware of such format
Export to RIS/BibTeX format
Tools to handle BibTeX files ; Jabref, KbibTeX etc.
Support citation style for example Chicago, Harvard, IEEE,
APA
