This document introduces LaTeX, an open-source document preparation system. It discusses the advantages of LaTeX such as handling large documents and equations easily. It describes the parts of a LaTeX document including the document class, packages, and bibliography. Examples are provided for lists, figures, tables, and equations. Information is also given about installing LaTeX on your system and using the Georgia Tech thesis template.
"LaTeX for beginners" is a course for a first approach towards the wonderful world of LaTeX, a document markup language and document preparation system.

All information in a file is always in binary form or a series of ones and zeros. A document includes any file you have created. It can be a true text document, sound file, graphics, images, or any other type of information the computer can create, store, or size from the internet.
File is the basic unit of information storage on a secondary storage device. Therefore, almost every form of data and information reside on these devices in form of file – whether audio data or video, whether text or binary.
Files may be classified on different bases as follows:
1. On the basis of content:
Text files: Files containing data/information in textual form. It is merely a collection of characters. Document files etc.
Binary files: Files containing machine code. The contents are non-recognizable and can be interpreted only in a specified way using the same application that created it. E.g. executable program files, audio files, video files etc.

This document for reference material to SPPU course on Latex. Latex is a universally used software for preparing quality documents. It is not a word processor. This document has been compiled by taking examples and references from various texts available on the subject. It is not meant to serve as beginner's guide to latex. History, Features and Applications of Latex along with basic Latex features such as how to form tables, how to write equations, how to enumerate data items etc are discussed.

A simplified introduction and guide for getting started with LaTeX typesetting. LaTeX is a document preparation system for high-quality typesetting. It is most often used for medium-to-large technical or scientific documents but it can be used for almost any form of publishing.

3. Why
LaTeX is not WYSIWYG*
◦ Manuscript/Typesetting program
Easy to handle large documents
◦ Break-up chapters/sections into separate documents
◦ Easily handle cross-references/citations across parts
(almost impossible with Word)
References
◦ Cite as you go
◦ Reference generated/sorted automatically
Equations
◦ Professional look
◦ Easy to cite
◦ Easy subequations/Math type in text
Formatting
◦ Formatting of group of text very easy to change
◦ Change paper from Style A (for a conference) to Style B
(for GT Thesis) using the same LaTeX code

Document parts:
◦ Document class
[option] {type}
option: type:
• Font size • Article
• Papersize • Book
• Letter
• Report
• {.cls}
• Mandatory for all documents

9. Parts of LaTeX document
File saved as
.tex
Document parts:
◦ Packages
[option] {type}
• After document class
• Not mandatory for all documents
• Allows you to use commands not
included with LaTeX distribution (e.g.
subfigures)

10. Parts of LaTeX document
File saved as style:
• .bst
.tex • Style downloaded
Document parts: from Internet
{style} • Various citation
◦ Bibliography styles (e.g. Chicago,
IEEE, etc.)
reference file:
{reference file} • .bib
• Your citation info
• Use Jabref or by-hand
• Usually before end{document}
• Creates bibliography at that point in the document
• Not mandatory for all documents

11. Parts of LaTeX document
Important code characters
◦ Start/end characters
begin{} … end{}
{[( )]}
◦ Math text: damping sum $(C_{mq}+C_{malpha})$
◦ Commands start with
◦ Comments%
Dividing commands (no need for start/end)
◦ chapter{}
◦ section{} subsection{} subsubsection{}
{Name of Section}

12. Example # 1: Lists
• itemizeor enumerate
Blank line in LaTeX is not
equal to blank line in text

14. Example # 2: Figures
• graphicxfor includegraphics
• subfigure for subfigure
ref{keyword}refers back to label{keyword}
~ = automatically adds space between words
• includegraphics[scaling]{location of
graphic}
• subfigure[subcaption]{figure information}

Also need ifthen to define
commands
makenomenclature
Creates nomenclature before document
