paper template

LaTeX template for scientific paper. Includes examples of bibliography, and figure / table references to a supplemental file. The main document is manuscript.tex. The supplement.tex document is where you can create a supplemental information document. The template uses only Latex-built-in classes and styles. Many journals define their own templates, document classes or citation styles.

Commandline usage:

  • compile.zsh compiles manuscript and supplement document to PDF.
  • clean.zsh removes lots of temporary files that are produced during the compilation.

Local setup:

(1) You need TexLive to compile the document. On OSX, the full package can be installed with homebrew:

    brew install texlive

(2) The compile and clean scripts assume you have zsh installed (alternatively, replace the zsh command within the script by bash):

    brew install zsh

(3) It's a good idea to track the project on github. Install git with homebrew:

    brew install git
  • copy the template repository into a new repository on github
  • then create a local copy: git clone http://... (the link is displayed in the repo page on github)
