latex

I have posted updated LaTeX class files for theses and dissertation of Chulalongkorn University. However, I have not written a manual for it yet. Instead, I provide my own dissertation as an example. The files can be used for both master and doctoral degree and also for either Thai or English language.

I haven’t write any paper since about last 6 months. That covers the period when I changed my PC. That’s a good time to update my MikTeX installation. Now, with MikTeX 2.7 in hand, I can review again the process of installing Thai language support.

– side note –
You can look at my detailed previous entry here. There contains the information to install Thai language in MikTeX 2.6 and 2.5. The process is very similar to that of 2.7

LaTeX is a de facto standard for most academic publications. Just like an html, a LaTeX document is a plain text file which could be edited by any text editor of our choice. Some editors stand out for being tailored specifically for LaTeX. One nice free (as in a free beer, but not quite as in Free Speech) is LEd (LaTeX Editor). However, LEd lacks one tiny feature that I need most.

Writing a latex document differs much from any other word processing program. It is just like writing a program. I feel much better when there is an IDE for a particular language I am using. Agreed, many can go without IDE. Take Mr. Wood, for example, he always babbling teases me and said that emacs or vi is the best. Well, not for me. Those editors are nice but that is not enough. Though emacs is easily extensible, I don’t want to spend my time there.

อึม ๆ หันมาใช้ pdflatex กันเถอะ

ปัญหามีแค่ตอน includegraphics

อ่านซะ

อึม ๆ โดยรวม ๆ แล้วก็มันใช้ได้เหมือนกับ latex ทุก ๆ อย่าง
ต่างกันหน่อยตรงเวลา includegraphics ให้ใช้ practice ใหม่ ไม่ต้องใส่ extension ของไฟล์
และ file ที่ include ต้องเป็น pdf ไฟล์ (eps ใช้ไม่ได้)

ถ้าไม่ใส่ extension pdflatex มันจะหา .pdf เป็น default อยู่แล้ว อ้อ ๆ เห็นว่าใช้ .jpg ได้ด้วยเลยทันที
