University of Washington Beamer Theme

Description

Authors: Michael Kupperman

A custom Beamer theme for the University of Washington.

Derived largely from Jeremy Lilly's Oregon State University Beamer Theme.

Usage

To use, place all five .sty files and both uw_theme_images and fonts directories (and subdirectories) into your working directory and add

\usetheme{UW}

to the preamble of your main Beamer presentation .tex file.

User Defined Macros

This theme allows the user to define the following macros that are used throughout the document:

  • title
  • subtitle
  • author
  • department
  • institute
  • titlegrapic

For example:

\title[Short Title]{Long Title}
\subtitle{Subtitle}
\author{Jane Doe\inst{1} \and John Doe\inst{2}}
\department{Applied Mathematics}
\institute{
    \inst{1}Very Fancy University \\
    \inst{2}Another Fancy University
}
\titlegraphic{\includegraphics[scale=0.05]{images/placeholder.png}}

Note: Not all these must be defined. The user may define whichever they like, and the document will change appearance accordingly.

Compilation

This theme uses UW's official font UniSans, and as such should be complied with LuaLaTeX or XeLaTeX. The font package is included in this repository. When compiled on most LaTeX IDEs the command on line 1 on main.tex will override the default compiler choice in favor of LuaLaTeX.

However, if you do wish to compile with pdfLaTeX, you may do so and obtain the default romanized font for the header text layers. Simply remove line 1 from main.tex.
