A template that has the advantage, over others, of:
-
Compiling the cover in LaTeX rather that importing an external PDF. This guarantees the proper formatting, fonts, color palette and logo size/resolution.
-
Using the \standalone package allows a smoother and faster compilation, since the whole document doesn't need to be compiled, which is a big problem when a lot of graphics are present. The package allows each
.tex
file to be compiled individually while being written and then group compiled when themain.tex
file is ran.

\red{}
easily colors the text red (useful to indicate placeholders or temporary content).\reffig{}
automatically references mid-text the figure with the correct number and creates a hyperlink to it. Takes as an argument the label of the figure, i.e.\reffig{fig:label name}
, and outputs (Figure #).
- You must compile using XeLatex (or LuaLatex), otherwise the process to change to the required fonts is very cumbursome
- Just install the fonts in your system using the usual
.ttf
format (Arrus BT, Arrus BT Small Caps and Arrus BT Small Caps Bold)
