WHAT IS LATEX?

LaTeX is a high-quality typesetting system containing

includes features designed for the production of technical and

scientific documentation

It is the de facto standard for the communication and

publication of scientific documents

It is based on Donald E. Knuth's TeX typesetting language

or certain extensions

In the late 1970s, Donald Knuth was revising the second volume of his

multivolume magnum opus The Art of Computer Programming, got the

galleys, looked at them, and said (approximately) "blecch"! He had just

received his first samples from the new typesetting system of the

publisher's, and its quality was so far below that of the first edition of

Volume 2 that he couldn't stand it. Around the same time, he saw a new

book (Artificial Intelligence, by Patrick Winston) that had been produced

digitally, and ultimately realized that typesetting meant arranging 0's

and 1's (ink and no ink) in the proper pattern, and said

(approximately), "As a computer scientist, I really identify with

patterns of 0's and 1's; I ought to be able to do something about

this", so he set out to learn what were the traditional rules for

typesetting math, what constituted good typography, and (because

the fonts of symbols that he needed really didn't exist) as much as

he could about type design.

scientist, mathematician,

Knuth’s lecture in American Mathematical Society (AMS) in late

1970’s

The topic he presented there was his new work on TeX (for

typesetting) and Metafont (for developing fonts for use with TeX).

He presented not only the roots of the typographical concepts and

the mathematical notions on which these two programs are based.

Attractive features of TeX which mathematicians found out:

1. It is intended to be used directly by authors (and their

secretaries)

2. It came from an academic source, and was intended to be

available for no monetary fee

3. It became available on just about any computer and operating

system, and was designed specifically so that input files would

be portable, and would generate the same output on any

system on which they were processed—same hyphenations,

same line breaks, same page breaks, same everything.

TeX came along just before the beginnings of the personal computer;

although it was developed on one of the last of the "academic"

mainframes (the DECsystem ("Edusystem")-10 and -20)

It was very quickly ported to some early HP workstations and, as

they emerged, the new personal systems

From the start, it has been popular among mathematicians,

physicists, astrophysicists, astronomers, any research scientists who

were plagued by lack of the necessary symbols on typewriters and

who wanted a more professional look to their preprints

Source: https://www.tug.org/whatis.html

WHAT DOES TEX NEED TO WORK?

It does not require applications like PageMaker, Quark Express,

Fontographer or FontLab.

A TeX system stands on its own, provided all the fonts one needs are

available

TeX uses only the metrics, and produces a "device independent"

output file “.dvi” that are translated to the particular output device

being used (an imagesetter, laser printer, inkjet printer).

The DVI translator actually accesses the font shapes, either as

bitmaps, Type 1 fonts, or pointers to fonts installed in a printer with

the shapes not otherwise accessible.

PostScript and PDF are two of the most popular "final" output

forms for TeX.

One of the main goals for anyone in the Academia, for any research group,

is to publish the results of their research. Therefore, enormous amounts

of time and effort are devoted to producing manuscripts which will be

evaluated for publication in scientific journals or international conferences.

One must employ the right tools to achieve the best results in writing,

measured in terms on quality vs. time devoted to writing.

You don't have time to learn it. Unlike most other point & click systems, LaTeX

does take some time to learn. There are of course many guides and tutorials that can

help you with this, but don't try to learn LaTeX if you have, say, less than 24 hours to

prepare a manuscript.

Your document is already written. Say, if you have already written your thesis in

Word, there isn't much point in trying to “convert” your document to LaTeX. You can

do it, but the results won't be pretty. LaTeX isn’t just another document type to “Save-

As”, it's a complete system to help you write those documents.

What you care about is the design of the document. If you do care about creating

your own designs for your documents (rather than the content), LaTeX is perhaps not

the best system for you. There are a number of packages (perhaps most notably

memoir) that allow you to customize the look of your document, but things are not

always straightforward. Having said that, if you are a designer, of course we would

welcome your help in designing new document classes and templates!

10pt, 11pt,

12pt Sets the size of the main font in the document. If no option is

specified, 10pt is assumed.

a4paper,

letterpaper

,...

Defines the paper size. The default size is letterpaper;. Besides

that, a5paper, b5paper, executivepaper, andlegalpaper can be

specified.

fleqn Typesets displayed formulas left-aligned instead of centered.

leqno Places the numbering of formulas on the left hand side instead of the

right.

titlepage,

notitlepage

Specifies whether a new page should be started after the document

title or not. The article class does not start a new page by default,

while report and book do.

twocolumn Instructs LaTeX to typeset the document in two columns

twoside,

oneside

Specifies whether double or single sided output should be generated. The classes article and report are single sided and the book class is

double sided by default. Note that this option concerns the style of the document only. The option twoside does not tell the printer you use

that it should actually make a two-sided printout.

landscape Changes the layout of the document to print in landscape mode.

openright,

openany

Makes chapters begin either only on right hand pages or on the next page available. This does not work with the article class, as it does

not know about chapters. The report class by default starts chapters

on the next page available and the book class starts them on right

hand pages.

draft

makes LaTeX indicate hyphenation and justification problems with a

small square in the right-hand margin of the problem line so they can

be located quickly by a human. It also suppresses the inclusion of

images and shows only a frame where they would normally occur.

1. By using amsmath, the \text command (through the auxiliary

package amstext) can be invoked for typesetting a fragment of text

inside a display.

2. amssymb provides an extended symbol collection. For example,

after loading amssymb you have the following additional binary

relation

symbols: \barwedge, \boxdot, \boxminus, \boxplus, \boxtimes, \Ca

p, \Cup (and many more), the arrow \leadsto, and some other

symbols such as \Box and \Diamond.

3. Another useful feature is the \mathbb command to produce

blackboard bold characters

SOME POINTS ON FIGURE INSERTION

• Can be used for UBUNTU

compatibility

• Use .eps files by

converting images using

GIMP, which is also free.

• High resolution figures in

.eps formats are demanded

by many journals.

• If system is supporting PdfLatex

properly this is the best option

• Can support images in .jpg, .png

Placement options htbp means allowing placement at certain

locations:

h means here: Place the figure in the text where the figure

environment is written, if there is enough room left on the page

t means top: Place it at the top of a page.

b means bottom: Place it at the bottom of a page.

p means page: Place it on a page containing only floats, such as

figures and tables.

An antenna radiation pattern or antenna

pattern is defined as a mathematical function

or a graphical representation of the radiation

properties of the antenna as a function of

space coordinates.

\end{flushleft}

\begin{center}

In most cases, the radiation pattern is

determined in the farfield region and is

represented as a function of the directional

coordinates.

\end{center}

\begin{flushright}

Radiation properties include power flux

density, radiation intensity, field strength,

directivity, phase or polarization.

\end{flushright}

A trace of the received electric (magnetic)

field at a constant radius is called the

amplitude field pattern.
