I took this Beamer theme from Overleaf at https://www.overleaf.com/latex/templates/zut-fibeamer/ksnwzmnhktvn I edited it trying to remove the university logo, but without success. So: How can I remove the university logo replacing it by another one (e.g., given by an image)? Presentation title is in yellow and not in blue as the original. How can I recover the blue color?

I have used LatexIt on older Intel macs (upto Ventura), and recently got a mac studio with Tahoe. Unfortunately even with latest version of Tex and LatexIt installed, I am unable to get equations to show up in preview pane or in export image. After checking typesetting paths, resetting them, checking that the ghostscript exists on that path (/usr/local/bin/gs), changing the colors of the preview pane and the text in many different combination, I have been unable to get this working. here are some screenshots, and here is the log generated: \documentclass[10pt]{article} \usepackage[usenames]{color} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} \pagestyle{empty} \begin{document}\begin{align*}x = 6 \end{align*} \end{document} --------------- processing pdflatex --------------- #!/bin/sh export PATH="[REDACTED_SYSTEM_PATHS]:/Library/TeX/texbin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin" export COMMAND_MODE="unix2003" export LOGNAME="[USERNAME]" export __CFBundleIdentifier="fr.chachatelier.pierre.LaTeXiT" export TMPDIR="/var/folders/[REDACTED]/T/" export HOME="/Users/[USERNAME]" export USER="[USERNAME]" ... cd "/var/folders/[REDACTED]/T/LaTeXiT-2.16.6" /Library/TeX/texbin/pdflatex -file-line-error -interaction nonstopmode latexit-1.tex Output written on latexit-1.pdf (1 page, 17889 bytes).

I writing a big novel with LaTeX (the standard TexLive distribution). I would like to count the total number of words in the compiled pdf document, and the average number of words per page. How can we do that with LaTeX? Is that even possible?

Here is a MWE of LuaLaTeX source code: \nonstopmode \RequirePackage{pdfmanagement} \RequirePackage{tagpdf} \tagpdfsetup{activate/mc=true,activate/spaces=true} \documentclass[11pt,usegeometry]{article} \usepackage{hyperref} \hypersetup{ pdftitle={MyTitle}, pdfauthor={MyName}, pdfdisplaydoctitle=true} } \begin{document} \tableofcontents \section{First Section} A document with a single sentence linking to \hyperlink{My Ref}{My Ref}. \hypertarget{My Ref}{My Ref}. Details about my reference. \end{document} After I compile twice and then auto-tag the resulting PDF in Adobe Acrobat Pro, veraPDF includes the following PDF/UA-2 validation failures: I am looking for a way to resolve these failures, both for automated Table of Contents entries and also individual hyperlink/hypertarget internal links. Some background: I needed to meet a work deadline and I did not have enough time to recode my tabularray-based tables with tabular-based tables in my full document to enable full tagging using tagpdf, but I wanted to replace the interword glue with space glyphs to give screen readers some fluency as a stopgap while I create a fully accessible version of my PDF, which must be visually identical to the untagged version. Apart from this structure destination issue, I have found Adobe's auto-tag feature to be very useful. I simply set up a root Document tag, with Part tags inside them for my chapters, copy the relevant chunks into them, fix a few things here and there, and veraPDF is almost fully happy. Fixing "Each TOCI in the table of contents shall identify the target of the reference using the Ref entry" is fiddly but I know how to do it. The key stumbling block is this issue here: structure destinations. I feel tantalisingly close to being able to produce a nice PDF/UA-2 document, simply using Adobe Acrobat Pro to remediate. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Is it possible to fix this by editing tags in Adobe Acrobat Pro manually, with or without help from different LaTeX coding of the internal links? (Which presumably could be coded/automated?) Or is there an existing tool that would allow these to be fixed throughout my document? I have tried reading the ISO and PDF/UA-2 documentation but this is over my head. I have seen similar questions and answers here, and here, but I lack the technical knowledge to apply a solution. With a detailed description and/or screenshot of what to change (presumably inside the properties of Link - OBJR tags?), I would be good to go, and hugely grateful.

The highly related question is here and here and even early here: \documentclass{standalone}% compile with lualatex \usepackage{luacode} \begin{document} \begin{luacode} local f = function(x, y, opt) opt = opt or {} opt.sg = opt.sg or '+' if opt.sg == '+' then return x+y else return x-y end end local x = f(2, 2, {sg='+'} ) -- < this causes an error with luacode, but not luacode* tex.print("Result ="..x) \end{luacode} \end{document} The code above raise: (./mwe.aux)[\directlua]:13: ')' expected (to close '(' at line 11) near '='. \luacode@dbg@exec ...code@maybe@printdbg {#1} #1 } l.21 \end{luacode} ? I wonder is this really a bug which exists for past 14 years, and any suggestions or patch to correct this abnormal behaviour? Edited: Since nidarfp pointed out here: Two solutions: The ideal solution: that the author of luacode fixes the problem. Use the luadraw* environment (which uses luacode*), and your problem should disappear, but you won't be able to use TeX macros in the luadraw source code (which is the advantage of luacode) I wonder any further advice on luadraw' side?

Is there a way to draw this parabola in plain tikz without getting a dimension error?

Is there a way to customize the definition of a tikzduck part? I am trying to draw a unicorn, but the horn is the same color as the body. I want the horn to be a different color, and to also add some draw commands to it, so I can make a sort of swirl around it. Like this: \documentclass{article} \usepackage{tikz,tikzducks} \begin{document} \begin{tikzpicture} \duck[ body=brown!80!white, longhair=brown!50!black, horsetail, unicorn=brown!50!black ] \end{tikzpicture} \end{document}

I'd like to learn how to add new symbols this way; I think it will open up unlimited possibilities. In my folder, I have a .tex file with the following contents: \documentclass[a4paper,10pt]{article} \usepackage[T2A]{fontenc} \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} \usepackage[russian,english]{babel} \begin{document} $A+a=$ \newfont{\myfont}{cmmi10} \newcommand{\mysymbol}{\myfont\symbol{65}} \mysymbol \end{document} And in the same folder with this .tex file there is a font file cmmi10.pfb with the Fontforge modified in the program (or rather, this font was created anew, but now it doesn’t matter). So, when compiling my .tex file with MiKTeX, the font is not taken from where MiKTeX usually gets fonts, but from the folder in which my .tex file is located, so the letter "A" in the compiled .pdf turns out to look different than usual, which suggests that my idea might work. However, this only works when changing a letter already in the font. When I try to create a new character in an empty cell using a .png image, all other empty cells are filled with the same image. I understand that this happens because all empty cells in Fontforge have the same name, but I can't do anything about it: when I try to rename one empty cell, the others are renamed too. Can anyone help me?

Good evening, I am trying to understand how to prepare my bibliography style. As already discussed in one of my previous questions, ConTeXt has its own language to customize bibliographic entries. I consulted the official documentation, but I was not able to understand sufficiently the content. From where should I start? Is there some other resource that I can read?

I use LaTeX for mathematics and am often in a situation where I want to write something like the following: I have a theorem with two conditions or sub-statements etc. which I later want to refer to in two different ways: Theorem 1.1. If X is ..., then X has the following properties (a) property a (b) property b proof. To prove (a) we ... ... "We see that Y satisfies Theorem 1.1.a so ...". For this, I would want the LaTeX code to look something like: \begin{theorem} If $X$ is ..., then $X$ has the following properties \begin{thmlist} \item\label{it:a} property a \item property b \end{thmlist} \end{theorem} \begin{proof} To prove \ref{it:a} we ... \end{proof} We see that $Y$ satisfies \cref{it:a} so ... The closest I have gotten to getting this to work is the following unsatisfactory way using thmtools and cleveref: \documentclass{amsart} \usepackage{enumitem} \usepackage{thmtools} \usepackage{cleveref} \newcounter{mythmlike} \numberwithin{mythmlike}{section} % setup lists \newlist{thmlist}{enumerate}{1} \setlist[thmlist]{label=\textnormal{\textbf{(\textit{\alph*})}},ref=\themythmlike.\alph*} % setup theorem-like environments with thmtools \declaretheoremstyle[sibling=mythmlike]{minsetning} \declaretheorem[style=minsetning,name=Theorem,postheadhook={\crefalias{thmlisti}{theorem}}]{theorem} \declaretheorem[style=minsetning,name=Corollary,postheadhook={\crefalias{thmlisti}{corollary}}]{corollary} \declaretheorem[style=minsetning,name=Lemma,postheadhook={\crefalias{thmlisti}{lemma}}]{lemma} \declaretheorem[style=minsetning,name=Proposition,postheadhook={\crefalias{thmlisti}{proposition}}]{proposition} \begin{document} \section{math} \begin{theorem} If $X$ is ..., then $X$ has the following properties \begin{thmlist} \item\label{it:a} property a \item property b \end{thmlist} \end{theorem} \begin{proof} To prove \ref{it:a} we ... \end{proof} We see that $Y$ satisfies \cref{it:a} so ... \end{document} Which produces The problems with this are two-fold: In the proof it writes "to prove 1.1.a we ..." instead of "to prove (a) we ...". It would be really great to have a command like \shortref{it:a} which would produce the latter. I have a lot of different theorem-like environments (even more than I gave in the example) and I would much prefer not having to add the postheadhook={\crefalias{thmlisti}{name}} to every single one. I tried adding postheadhook={\protect\crefalias{thmlisti}{\thmt@thmname}} when declaring the theorem-like minsetning style, but this does not work. I will add that it is important for me to have as much of the programming completely hidden away in my .sty/.cls file so that I can focus on just writing mathematics when I write -- This is also why I want to be able to use thmlist for all the theorem-like environments and not also something like a lemlist for lemmas etc. (also because I want the flexibility to easily change a lemma to a proposition etc. - which is the main benefit of using cleveref for me). Any help would be very much appreciated!

I am trying to reproduce a specific transistor circuit image for an assignment. Using the stock circuitikz JFET symbol, I was able to reproduce the circuit fairly well. I am also quite satisfied with it. I am curious, however, if it is possible to make the gate closer to the center as it is in the image. I have looked through the documentation and the only plausible solution I can find is to create a new symbol however I am a bit stuck on how to go about that. The damper example in the documentation was not very clear. Here is the code, if it is needed.

I want to make a beamer presentation where I start with an animation, then animate that animation turning into the title page. I cannot figure out how to do this in beamer, and was barely able to get a prototype working in article. This is by no means an MWE, and it is by no means correct (I believe it is incorrect). But it is what I can muster right now. I want to minick this effect in beamer, where I start on a fullscreen animated slide, then animate the transition from that slide to the titlepage. I want the titlepage to be aligned as it normally would, with no vertical or horizontal separation. This is what I have so far, it needs to be viewed through adobe acrobat. \documentclass{article} \usepackage[paperwidth=160mm,paperheight=90mm,margin=0pt]{geometry} \usepackage{pgfplots,graphicx,tikz-3dplot,animate,tikzducks} \pgfplotsset{compat=1.18} \usetikzlibrary{calc} \newenvironment{jasperslide}{}{\newpage} \newsavebox{\titlebox} \sbox{\titlebox}{% \parbox{160mm}{% \centering {\Large\bfseries Overfull \textbackslash{}dbox}\par\vskip 1.5em {\normalsize Jasper Nice}\par\vskip 0.8em {\small Today}% }% } \begin{document} \begin{jasperslide} \begin{animateinline}[autoplay,loop]{10}% \pgfplotsforeachungrouped \FRAME in {1,...,60} {% \tdplotsetmaincoords{90}{-90}% \begin{tikzpicture}[x=\pagewidth,y=\pageheight] \coordinate (C) at (current page.center); \useasboundingbox (current page.south west) rectangle (current page.north east); \begin{scope}[tdplot_main_coords] \begin{scope}[canvas is yz plane at x=0,shift={($(current page.center)$)}] \duck \end{scope} \end{scope} \end{tikzpicture}% \pgfmathsetmacro{\III}{\FRAME != 60}% \ifnum\III=1\newframe\fi% }% \end{animateinline}% \end{jasperslide} \begin{jasperslide} \begin{animateinline}[autoplay]{10}% \pgfplotsforeachungrouped \FRAME in {1,...,60} {% \tdplotsetmaincoords{90-90*\FRAME/68}{-90+90*\FRAME/68}% \begin{tikzpicture}[x=\pagewidth,y=\pageheight] \coordinate (C) at (current page.center); \useasboundingbox (current page.south west) rectangle (current page.north east); \begin{scope}[tdplot_main_coords] \node[canvas is xy plane at z=0,transform shape] at (C) {\usebox{\titlebox}}; \begin{scope}[canvas is yz plane at x=0,shift={($(current page.center)$)}] \duck \end{scope} \end{scope} \end{tikzpicture}% \pgfmathsetmacro{\III}{\FRAME != 60}% \ifnum\III=1\newframe\else\newframe% \tdplotsetmaincoords{0}{0}% \begin{tikzpicture}[x=\pagewidth,y=\pageheight] \coordinate (C) at (current page.center); \useasboundingbox (current page.south west) rectangle (current page.north east); \begin{scope}[tdplot_main_coords] \node[canvas is xy plane at z=0,transform shape] at (C) {\usebox{\titlebox}}; \end{scope} \end{tikzpicture}% \fi% }% \end{animateinline}% \end{jasperslide} \end{document}

I'm trying to improve the copy paste from a lstlisting code block.

Why is the current page.center of a beamer page not making my image flush with the edges? Compile with lualatex: Learning from samcarter's solution, the code below is okay to put the image: \documentclass{beamer} \usepackage{tikz} \begin{document} \begin{frame}[plain] \begin{tikzpicture}[remember picture,overlay] \node[at=(current page.center)] { \includegraphics[width=\paperwidth, height=\paperheight]{example-image} }; \end{tikzpicture} \end{frame} \end{document} However, if put inside animateinline, as below: \documentclass{beamer} \usepackage{graphicx,tikz,animate} \begin{document} { \setbeamertemplate{navigation symbols}{} \begin{frame}[plain] \begin{animateinline}[autoplay,loop]{10}% % Credit to @Explorer's comment: \begin{tikzpicture}[remember picture,overlay] \node at (current page.center) {\includegraphics[ width=\pagewidth,height=\pageheight ]{example-image}}; \end{tikzpicture} \end{animateinline} \end{frame} } \end{document} The code complained that: ! Package animate Error: Content of first frame must not have zero width. See the animate package documentation for explanation. Type H <return> for immediate help. ... l.20 \end{frame} ? In regard to the comment about https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/656219/319072, the following MWE still is not flush. \documentclass{beamer} \usepackage{graphicx,tikz,animate} \begin{document} \AtBeginShipoutNext{% \AtBeginShipoutUpperLeft{% \unitlength=\paperheight% \put(0,-1){% \begin{animateinline}[autoplay,loop]{10}% \begin{tikzpicture} \node at (current page.center) {\includegraphics[ width=\pagewidth,height=\pageheight ]{example-image}}; \end{tikzpicture} \end{animateinline}% }% }% }% { \setbeamertemplate{navigation symbols}{} \begin{frame} \end{frame} } \end{document}

I have some minted code blocks in a beamer, such as: \documentclass[compress]{beamer} \usepackage{minted} \setminted[ocaml]{ frame=leftline, framesep=6pt, rulecolor=gray, linenos=true, numbersep=4pt, xleftmargin=20pt, breaklines=true, tabsize=2, } \begin{document} \begin{frame} \inputminted{ocaml}{some_file.ml} %% HERE \end{frame} \end{document} where some_file.ml is, say: let rec sum l = match l with | [] -> 0 | x::q -> x + sum q As expected, this is the output I get: I would like to box every token in the file, either automatically or manually (every snippet is as small as this example), approximately like this: I have absolutely no idea how to do this. I searched in the minted documentation for “token” but found nothing relevant. Is it possible to do this and if so, how can I achieve it? Thank you in advance 🙂

Here is the picture I want to draw: I know how to draw just one colored square, for example here is a code to it: \documentclass[12pt]{article} \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} \usepackage[a4paper, margin=1.5in]{geometry} \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} \usepackage{lmodern} \usepackage{tikz-cd} \usepackage{amsmath,amsfonts,amssymb} \usepackage{amsthm} \usepackage{graphicx} \usepackage[all,cmtip]{xy} \usepackage[english]{babel} \usepackage{xurl} \usetikzlibrary{positioning, shapes.geometric} \begin{document} \begin{tikzpicture}[ every path/.style={thick}, every node/.style={circle,fill=black,draw,inner sep = 0pt, minimum size= 2pt} ] \draw[red] (0,0)--(2,0); \draw[cyan] (2,0)--(2,2); \draw[yellow] (2,2)--(0,2); \draw[red] (0,2)--(0,0); \draw[green] (0,0)--(2,2); %\draw[green] (0,2)--(2,0); \foreach \corner in {(0,0), (2,0), (2,2), (0,2)} \node at \corner {}; \end{tikzpicture} \end{document} Also, how to remove the common edge if I aligned the two squares beside each other? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

How do I set a sans-serif document font in Latex? This simple question does not seem to have an answer here at all - everyone already seems to know it and nobody asks. MWE: \documentclass{book} \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} \author{me} \title{Blah} \date{never} \begin{document} \frontmatter \maketitle\tableofcontents \mainmatter Hello \end{document} I have been asked to explain why my question is different to this one. Two reasons: I am looking for a global solution, not tweaking as I go. The answers there are not what I want. The ones here are what I want.

I've been using the OpenType LetterSpace font feature to adjust tracking. It does what I want, but has the side effect of creating a new font instance, which is annoying when babel is in use as the newly created instance is not known to babel. I'd like a drop in alternative implemented in Lua that behaves the same. But it's beyond my skill and understanding. Requirements: No change in the word spacing (like fontspec). Like for like behaviour when same number is supplied as I was using with LetterSpace (I already spent time tuning things to this number). Group safe. Switch-like behaviour (like \bfseries). Optional compatibility with the microtype package if loaded. I probably don't care specifically what happens if you try and use both tracking methods at the same time – one or the other in use is sufficient. But other microtype features need to still work (like protrusion, etc.). Here's a MWE that shows the current behaviour I have with the LetterSpace option. If possible, I'd like the numbers and output to match. %!
