------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ATLAS LaTeX class, style files and templates to typeset notes and papers. See ChangeLog or SVN log for history of changes. Responsible: Ian Brock (Ian.Brock@cern.ch) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The following template main files exist: atlas-document.tex Generic ATLAS document atlas-document-texmf.tex Generic ATLAS document for a central atlaslatex installation atlas-draft-cover.tex Make a standalone cover for an ATLAS draft atlas-preprint-cover.tex Make a standalone cover for an ATLAS CERN preprint atlas-auxmat.tex A front page for auxiliary material The ATLAS document class (atlasdoc.cls) and style files can be found in the latex directory. The following main style files exist: atlasbiblatex.sty Reference style adjustments for biblatex atlascover.sty Make a cover (CONF note, CERN preprint, ATLAS draft) atlascontribute.sty List of contributors (and authors) for a document atlaspackage.sty Standard packages used in ATLAS documents atlasphysics.sty Useful definitions. This file simply inputs others. Options can be used to specify which ones should be included. Documentation can be found in the doc directory. atlas-paper.pdf Guide to the content and style of ATLAS papers atlas-latex.pdf Guide to the use of the ATLAS document templates and styles atlas-bibtex.pdf Guide to references and BibTeX in ATLAS atlas-physics.pdf Symbols defined in atlasphysics.sty atlas-tables.pdf Some guidelines and help for tables More detailed information about the package can be found under: https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/AtlasProtected/PubComLaTeX The general idea is that you create a separate directory tree for each document that you want to produce which contains the contents of this package. It is assumed that all style files are in a directory latex, which is a subdirectory of the one in which the main document sits. The latex subdirectory can of course be a link to a central style directory. To make a new document give the command: make new [BASENAME=mydocument] [TEXLIVE=YYYY] The TeX Live version is set to 2013 by default. This version number should be fine for newer versions of TeX Live and also for an up-to-date MikTeX 2.9 installation. make help gives you a bit more assistance on which make targets exist. The most common FAQ I get is why atlaslatex does not just compile "out of the box"? If you are running on lxplus for it to work, you MUST set your PATH correctly: export PATH=/afs/cern.ch/sw/XML/texlive/latest/bin/x86_64-linux:$PATH A users guide to the templates can be found in doc/atlas_latex.pdf. You can produce this document yourself (and thus test that your LaTeX setup is working) by giving the commands: cd doc/atlas_latex make or cd doc/atlas_latex pdflatex atlas_latex biber atlas_latex pdflatex atlas_latex pdflatex atlas_latex Three other make targets are: make clean Cleans up intermediate files make cleanpdf Remove output pdf file make cleanall Also cleans up output pdf file
