A few pieces of advice for LaTeX users, to help them prepare documents with better typography, streamline their writing workflow, and write maintainable LaTeX code.
Just pass main.tex
through the usual PDFLaTeX process, or adopt the lazy way:
latexmk -pdf main
The document uses the tufte-latex
class, which is bundled with the major TeX distributions. You might want to check for an up-to-date version though, since I'm updating TeXlive with obsessive-compulsive frequency :)
I'm trying to keep the reuseable parts of the setup code modularized out of the main file into proper packages. At one point, these might be maintained separately, but they will live here for a while.
The LaTeX logo was not looking very nice when set in Lato with the original definition; lato-latex.sty
redefines \TeX
and \LaTeX
to better fit. The code was inspired by arsclassica.sty
.
I use todonotes.sty
while writing and it needed a few tweaks to fit tufte-latex
; this is in todo-setup.sty
.
