The ltx-talk class for slides defines its own basic lists, so that they can be used with overlays. I am interested in using custom lists, for example ones that pre-format dialogue. Doing this in the usual way with enumitem currently fails. A brief example follows. Is there a way to insulate custom lists from the class's baked-in list definitions, so that this will work, by putting them in something like a minipage environment? Failure case \DocumentMetadata{tagging = on, lang = en-us} \documentclass[aspect-ratio=4:3]{ltx-talk} \usepackage{enumitem} \newlist{dialist}{description}{1} \setlist[dialist]{font=\textsc, leftmargin=2cm, style=nextline} \begin{document} \begin{frame} \frametitle{Dialogue} \begin{dialist} \item[Socrates] And your opinion is right, as you can prove in this way: if some one asked you “Is there, Gorgias, a false and a true belief?” you would say, Yes, I imagine. \item[Gorgias] I should. \item[Socrates] But now, is there a false and a true knowledge? \end{dialist} \end{frame} \end{document} error: !

How an I properly indicate which portions of the text are to be read in German? Thank you for your time and please do not hesitate to answer partially! I really appreciate your help.

I would like to have this command, for example: \ids{⿰钅使} so that even if the character is not included in Unicode, it can still be used to form a new character for display.

While working on a paper for university, I came across the problem of wanting to refer to a few episodes from a Netflix series, but not knowing how to format this in the .bib file. I use Zotero to keep track of my references and when I generate a reference from there, everything seems to be fine: However, when I export the references in BibLaTeX format and import them into my .bib file, the bibliography doesn't look right: Charlie Covell is supposed to show as scriptwriter and Georgi Banks-Davies is supposed to be shown as director. That this show is by Netflix also doesn't seem to appear. How would I go about formatting this? This is my code (i.e. how Zotero has formatted it): @misc{banks-davies_episode1_2024, title = {Episode 1}, titleaddon = {Kaos}, publisher = {Netflix}, author = {Banks-Davies, Georgi}, editora = {Covell, Charlie}, editoratype = {collaborator}, date = {2024-08-29}, }

I'm having bunch of Plain TeX equations, few examples given below: $$ a+b=c $$ $$ - {\pi \over 2} < \theta < {\pi \over 2}.\eqno{(1)} $$ $$ \left\{ \matrix{ \dot{\varphi}_1 = \varphi_2 \cr \dot{\varphi}_2 = M^{-1} ( \varphi_1) \cr } \right. , $$ \bye Is there any possibility to convert those to LaTeX format, please advise.

A follow up question to How to modify the chapter headings using \EditInstance. The accepted answer solved the basic layout, but how can I eliminate the vertical space between the top of the text area and the top rule of the chapter heading when using the ruled headformat? The code written by cfr in the linked question produces The current output has unwanted space above the top rule (see image above), while I want the rule to align with the top of the text area (see image below).

I am using babel package with Spanish style (in amsart class), which puts acute accents in math symbols such as \lim, \max, \inf, etc. It is actually nice, because it keeps all the formatting in the same language and style. However, it doesn't put the accent in \varprojlim, which doesn't go with the general layout. Is it possible to make \varprojlim have the accent as everything else? MWE: \documentclass{amsart} \usepackage[spanish]{babel} \usepackage{amssymb,amsfonts,amsmath} \begin{document} \[ \lim \; \inf \; \max \] \[ \varprojlim \] \end{document} Result:

I am trying to create a printable document that contains many lists of signature lines. In LaTeX I would use something like \documentclass{article} \begin{document} Please sign for the following items. \rule[-2pt]{2cm}{1pt} First item \rule[-2pt]{2cm}{1pt} Second item \end{document} to generate this . However, LaTeX is not an option because the document source must be in a format that is easy for non-expert users to edit, for example github-flavored markdown like this: Please sign for the following items. - First item - Second item I plan to set up a continuous integration pipeline to automatically convert the source document to printable form such as PDF, and host it on a web site. How can I use pandoc or another tool to change the markdown bullets to signature lines, so I get the desired output? pandoc source.md -f gfm -o output.pdf produces which looks nice except that I want signature lines instead of bullet points.

I want to generate a thicker version of the original bitmap Computer Modern fonts as shown in this answer by mickep, but for 9600 dpi. I get the following output with the lexmarkr mode. The PDF viewer used for the above screenshot was Microsoft Edge (with the #edge-new-pdf-viewer disabled so that the legacy PDF viewer is used) on Windows 11 at 500% zoom on a screen of resolution 1920 by 1080. The lexmarkr mode as defined in modes.mf reads as follows (line 1641 onwards). % Michael Covington's ({\tt mcovingt@ai.uga.edu}) definition for the % Lexmark Optra R (4049), reflecting a taste for a heavier than % normal rendition of the Computer Modern fonts. % % You may prefer a lesser value of blacker (down to maybe 1.0). % Initially tested on 10, 12, 17-point CMR and 10-point math italic. % % While we're talking about the Optra R, here's another useful fact: % it takes 32-bit-wide 72-pin SIMMs, 70 or 80 ns. Contrary to the % documentation, you do not have to use IBM's special SIMMs. % % The resolution of 1200 and the |blacker| value of 3 causes {\tt cmbsy7} % to be generated with incorrect arrows and radical sign. The % |vtftzzlo| mode also fails. Decreasing |blacker| to 2 works around. % From {\tt infovore@xs4all.nl} (Olaf Weber) and Henrik Schmiediche. % mode_def lexmarkr = %\[ Lexmark Optra R 4049 (1200dpi) mode_param (pixels_per_inch, 1200); mode_param (blacker, 2); % used to be 3; works around {\tt cmbsy7} bug mode_param (fillin, 0); mode_param (o_correction, 1); mode_common_setup_; enddef; LexmarkOptraR := lexmarkr; As one can see, the lexmarkr mode defines the pixels_per_inch parameter to be 1200. I want to set it to 9600. For reasons that I don't understand, TeX does not accept the value 9600 directly. But one can write 9600 as 4000 + 4000 + 1600 as defined by the ibx mode (line 1560 onewards). I thus added the following test mode and compiled with this new mode. % Test by Apoorv Potnis mode_def apoorvtest = mode_param (pixels_per_inch, 4000 + 4000 + 1600); mode_param (blacker, 2); mode_param (fillin, 0); mode_param (o_correction, 1); mode_common_setup_; enddef; The result is as follows. I guess I've to 'scale' the blacker parameter to get the same visual output. I tried many values, including cranking it up to 100. I can't see any visual difference even with 100 as the blacker value. How do I find out the correct blacker value in this case? Below is the MWE that I used. % \pdfpkresolution=1200 % \pdfpkmode={lexmarkr} \pdfpkresolution=9600 \pdfpkmode={apoorvtest} \pdfmapfile{} \documentclass{article} \begin{document} Some text, and a formula: $D\tan x=1+\tan^2x$. \end{document} The above MWE was compiled with gsudo fmtutil-sys --byfmt mf && gsudo mktexlsr && Remove-Item -Recurse -Force "C:\Users\apoor\.texlive2026\texmf-var\fonts\pk" && pdflatex test.tex.

It seems (or is apparently) that thickness of lines is hart coded. Consequently at driving of an line, the use for example scale=2 make line only longer and its thickens is not changes, see MWE below: \documentclass[margin=3mm, varwidth]{standalone} \usepackage{tikz} \usetikzlibrary{arrows.meta} \tikzset{LA/.style = {-Straight Barb, line width=1mm}} \begin{document} \begin{tikzpicture} \draw[LA] (0,0) -- ++ (2,0); \end{tikzpicture} \begin{tikzpicture}[scale=2] \draw[LA] (0,0) -- ++ (2,0); \end{tikzpicture} \end{document} Does exist some trick by which will be scaled thickness of line too? The best way would be as option of the line style, which will has effect just on this particular line. My quick search on site so far didn't give me any suggestion ...

The following loop is an example of a loop that, starting from a certain sequence member, is rounded to 1.0000. How can I break the loop at the second term, which is 1.0000 (in this example, that's the 13th)? Note: I'm using TikZ and xint; both are possible options. \documentclass[margin=5pt, varwidth]{standalone} \usepackage{tikz} \usepackage{xintexpr} \begin{document} \foreach \x in {1,...,15}{%% \x: \xintround{4}{\xinteval{1-exp(-\x/1.2)}}\par }%% \end{document}

Please note that this is used inside a production environment and I don't really have any control over the content. It is generated in a non-standard syntax and it should be treated as it is. What I mean is, in this case, please abstain from editing the sample text \kant and the sample float in any way. I want a solution that will externally process the content exactly as I have written it and still give the expected results. I can't use multicol package as I need to use table* and figure* environments which are not supported with that package. Is there any way to prevent the twocolumn text from overlapping with the paracols text? Is there any other package that supports this kind of typesetting?

I'm creating a landscape booklet with top ring binding, and I want it to be read across both pages when opened. I've been trying to set up inner and outer margins, but the information I find mostly covers how to do this when the book is bound on the left edge. What I need is to have different top and bottom margins for odd and even pages, like: Odd pages: 25mm top margin, 10mm bottom margin Even pages: 10mm top margin, 25mm bottom margin I’ve tried using the memoir and book classes, along with geometry, but I’m open to other suggestions as well. Could someone explain the recommended setup for this kind of book format? Any help would be greatly appreciated! A (blurry, will update..) picture of the layout I am thinking of. Thanks!

I am giving a try at coffins, and I joined two coffins to typeset material side by side on a line. However, \TypesetCoffin does not put the resulting coffin at the left hand side of the page, but introduces a small gap, as evidenced by the boxes below. Why is that, and how do I tell it not to ? \documentclass{article} \usepackage{showframe,xcoffins} \fboxsep 0pt \begin{document} \noindent \NewCoffin\CoffinExG \NewCoffin\CoffinExD \SetVerticalCoffin\CoffinExG{.72\textwidth}{material} \SetVerticalCoffin\CoffinExD{.28\textwidth}{\hfill material} \JoinCoffins\CoffinExG[b,r]\CoffinExD[b,l] \fbox{\TypesetCoffin\CoffinExG} \end{document}

I draw an arrow with a label like this. \documentclass[dvipdfmx]{article} \usepackage{tikz} \usetikzlibrary{arrows.meta} \begin{document} \begin{tikzpicture}[auto=left] \node[name=A] at (0,0) {$A$}; \node[name=B] at (1,0) {$B$}; \draw[->] (A) -- (B) node[pos=0.5]{$f$}; \end{tikzpicture} \end{document} I like this notation because the order is “a coordinate, a coordinate, and a label.” This is more readable than “a coordinate, a label, and a coordinate.” I want to bend the arrow while keeping this order. I tried the following: \documentclass[dvipdfmx]{article} \usepackage{tikz} \usetikzlibrary{arrows.meta} \begin{document} \begin{tikzpicture}[auto=left] \node[name=A] at (0,0) {$A$}; \node[name=B] at (1,0) {$B$}; \draw[->] (A) to[bend left=30] (B) node[pos=0.5]{$f$}; \end{tikzpicture} \end{document} However, this does not work properly—the label appears at coordinate A. I know I can achieve this with a \newcommand, but is there another way? Thank you.

The code comes from Mico's answer. \documentclass[border=6pt,varwidth]{standalone} \usepackage[table]{xcolor} \definecolor{headorange}{RGB}{255,127,0} \definecolor{creamlight}{RGB}{255, 242, 215} \definecolor{creamdark}{RGB}{255, 255, 143} \usepackage{array} \arrayrulecolor{white} \setlength{\arrayrulewidth}{1.6pt} \renewcommand{\arraystretch}{1.9} \setlength{\tabcolsep}{0pt} \newcolumntype{C}[1]{>{\centering\arraybackslash}m{#1}} \newcolumntype{H}{>{\columncolor{headorange}\color{white}\boldmath}C{1.25cm}} \newcolumntype{L}{>{\columncolor{creamlight}}C{1.8cm}}%<---- \newcolumntype{D}{>{\columncolor{creamdark}}C{1.8cm}}%<---- \begin{document} \begin{tabular}{|H|L|D|L|D|L|D|} \hline $x$ & $-1$ & $-0.8$ & $-0.4$ & $0$ & $0.4$ & $1$ \\ \hline $y$ & & $1.4$ & & $-1$ & $-0.6$ & \\ \hline \end{tabular} \end{document} Noted that with C{1.8cm}, the right margin missing! Thanks to cfr, the warning shows along: Overfull \hbox (10.65623pt too wide) in paragraph at lines 23--30 [][] while changed to: \newcolumntype{L}{>{\columncolor{creamlight}}C{1.65cm}} \newcolumntype{D}{>{\columncolor{creamdark}}C{1.65cm}} The margin appeared as normal(and what I expected): In texdoc standalone, sec.5.2: This option uses the varwidth package to wrap the content into a varwidth environment, which is based on minipage, but will always use the natural width of the content if it is smaller than the given maximum width. The resulting effect is that the created paragraph will not cause any additional width and that multiple paragraphs can be included as part of the content. The used maximal width (which is provided to the underlying minipageenvironment) is \linewidth by default, but can be set by providing a width as value to the option. Maybe the deafault value here mattered? But why standalone has a \linewidth, the tabular behaviour when C{1.8cm} confused me with the missing right margin. Any paraphase or how to prevent the unexpected case?

Why can't I use \newline? Even entering and giving it \vspace doesn't work. \documentclass[border=6pt]{standalone} \usepackage[table]{xcolor} \usepackage{array} \definecolor{headorange}{RGB}{255,127,0} \definecolor{creamlight}{RGB}{255, 242, 215} \definecolor{creamdark}{RGB}{255, 255, 143} \arrayrulecolor{white} \setlength{\arrayrulewidth}{1.6pt} \renewcommand{\arraystretch}{1.9} \setlength{\tabcolsep}{0pt} \newcolumntype{C}[1]{>{\centering\arraybackslash}m{#1}} \newcolumntype{H}{>{\columncolor{headorange}\color{white}\centering\arraybackslash\bfseries\itshape}m{1.25cm}} \newcolumntype{L}{>{\columncolor{creamlight}\centering\arraybackslash}m{1.8cm}} \newcolumntype{D}{>{\columncolor{creamdark}\centering\arraybackslash}m{1.8cm}} \begin{document} \begin{tabular}{|H|L|D|L|D|L|D|} \hline $x$ & $-1$ & $-0.8$ & $-0.4$ & $0$ & $0.4$ & $1$ \\ \hline $y$ & & $1.4$ & & $-1$ & $-0.6$ & \\ \hline \end{tabular} \newline \vspace{4mm} \begin{tabular}{|H|L|D|L|D|L|} \hline $x$ & $1.2$ & $1.6$ & $2$ & $2.4$ & $2.8$ \\ \hline $y$ & & $2.6$ & & & \\ \hline \end{tabular} \end{document} I want the second table on the right side is exactly under the first table and they are left aligned. Like this:

Below is the MWE I was too lazy to make yesterday. As noted in comments in the MWE I (surprisingly?) need ragged2e to make it compile and (understandably?) hyperref to make the PDF pass VeraPDF. \DocumentMetadata{ lang = sv, pdfversion = 2.0, pdfstandard = ua-2, tagging = on, } \tagpdfsetup{math/mathml/luamml/load=false} \documentclass[11pt,a4paper,twoside,final]{report} \usepackage[margin=25mm,top=24mm,bottom=24mm,nomarginpar,nohead,footskip=11mm]{geometry} \usepackage[document]{ragged2e} % Needed for compilation. \usepackage{hyperref} % Needed to pass VeraPDF. \hypersetup{ pdftitle={MWE}, pdfauthor={polaren}, pdfsubject={First question to LaTeX Stack Exchange.}, } \EditInstance{heading}{chapter}{ number-format=\makebox[12mm][l]{\theheading.}, number-decls=\sffamily\fontsize{14pt}{16pt}\selectfont, title-decls=\sffamily\fontsize{14pt}{16pt}\selectfont, after-sep=0mm, before-sep=0mm, start-code=\clearpage\vspace*{-10.75mm}\rule{\textwidth}{0.1mm}\newline\vspace*{-18mm}, final-code=\vspace*{-5mm}\rule{\textwidth}{0.1mm}\newline\vspace*{4mm}, headformat-instance=hang, decls=\raggedright\parindent 0pt\rmfamily } \setlength{\parskip}{6pt plus 1pt minus 1pt} %\setlength{\parskip}{0pt} \begin{document} \chapter*{Testing starred chapter} Test. \chapter{Testing numbered chapter} Test. \end{document} I'm trying to make a \chapter (and \chapter*) heading looking like the picture below. The document must be accessible, so I'm using the \EditInstance command. With the following code (found pretty much by trial and error) \EditInstance{heading}{chapter}{ number-format=\makebox[12mm][l]{\theheading.}, number-decls=\sffamily\fontsize{14pt}{16pt}\selectfont, title-decls=\sffamily\fontsize{14pt}{16pt}\selectfont, after-sep=0mm, before-sep=0mm, start-code=\clearpage\vspace*{-10.75mm}\rule{\textwidth}{0.1mm}\newline\vspace*{-18mm}, final-code=\vspace*{-5mm}\rule{\textwidth}{0.1mm}\newline\vspace*{4mm}, headformat-instance=hang, decls=\raggedright\parindent 0pt\rmfamily } I get something that looks okay, but I strongly suspect this is far from the best way to do this. For example, this solution depends on the value of \parskip which doesn't seem right (I have \parskip set to 6pt). Also, the \vspace commands indicate this isn't done right. Any suggestions on how to do this more robustly are most welcome. I'm using lualatex-dev on Windows/MikTeX: "This is LuaHBTeX, Version 1.24.0 (MiKTeX 26.2)".

I'm using https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/647838/141947 to operate over a list of image files to include them easily in a document. For some reason, adding a trim option to \includegraphics results in a compilation failure with File ended while scanning use of \Gread@parse@vp Why does it break ?

I would like to cite theorems in my manuscript by specifying the reference in the theorem title. I tried using the following code: \begin{theorem}[{\cite[Thm.~2.5]{reference_paper}}] Statement of the theorem \end{theorem} or \begin{theorem} \cite[Thm.~2.5]{reference_paper}. Statement of the theorem \end{theorem} These produce the first two results shown in the attached image, but I would prefer something similar to the third row. Being able to remove the space after '(' in the first example would also be fine. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks in advance! This question is similar to this, but I do not want to specify the number manually and was looking for a more LaTeX-style way of doing it.

I would like to create a fast/optimized fully expandable function that counts the number of spaces in an argument: \documentclass{article} \begin{document} \countspaces{ A B } % Should return 3 (1 is ok too if leading and trailing spaces are removed) \countspaces{A \mycommand B} % Should return 2 (\mycommand is not expanded) \countspaces{A {a b c} B} % Should return 2 (spaces inside groups are not counted) \end{document} Explicit spaces should be counted too. How to achieve that?
