hello there!

Hi

anyone here?

yes

@user1460166 sorry didnt see until now

@DanZimm thanks

whats up?

@DanZimm I have a small question

hopefully ill have an answer :D

tex.stackexchange.com/questions/114356/… :D

you should answer Gonzalo's question

im not sure how you would do that I apologize

thanks :)

Any Mac user around that uses LaTeXian? Here's a question that might be specific to settings with this editor:

Tuddeluu and good morning, everybody!

!!/answer weather in Trondheim, NO

@DavidCarlisle A friend of mine claims that the Article class doesn't have font size 13. That it renders in 12 pt if one specify \documentclass[13pt]{article}. Is this correct?

@Holene No it uses 10pt (and tells you there is no 13pt option)

@DavidCarlisle Aha, thanks.

@Holene note the options are not really about font size so much as design layouts You can use \Large to get 14pt for example but the 10 11 and 12 pt options set up page size, and margins spaces around lists and headings and lots of other stuff, and there are only three the moresizes collection has eg extarticle with more options if you really need it, but mostly, you don't.

@Holene PSmith follows Paulo around, If Paulo isn't here, Psmith isn't either.

Aha

@DavidCarlisle Much to learn, I guess =)

@DavidCarlisle Hello, did you see the bug report about the array package: tex.stackexchange.com/questions/68732/…

We sent with @PauloCereda 2 days ago

@DavidCarlisle I have a minipage with a couple of sentences in. I would like these sentences to stretch out equally. How can I do that?

 \begin{minipage}{0.45\textwidth}
    \begin{center}
    {\fontsize{75}{75}\selectfont NTH }\\
    {\scshape\sloppy Universitetet i Trondheim} \\
    {\scshape\sloppy Norges Tekniske Høgskole}
    \end{center}
    \end{minipage}

When I compile, the first sentence, Universitetet i Trondheim, is slightly tighter than the last. I would like both sentences to be of exact equal width.

@Holene Measure the two lines

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{tgtermes}

\begin{document}
\begin{minipage}{0.45\textwidth}
\centering
{\fontsize{75}{75}\selectfont NTH}\\
\settowidth{\dimen0}{\scshape Universitetet i Trondheim}%
\settowidth{\dimen2}{\scshape Norges Tekniske Høgskole}%
\ifdim\dimen2>\dimen0 \setlength{\dimen0}{\dimen2}%
\makebox[\dimen0][s]{\scshape Universitetet i Trondheim} \\
\makebox[\dimen0][s]{\scshape Norges Tekniske Høgskole}
\end{minipage}
\end{document}

@Holene Or let TeX do the job

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{tgtermes}

\begin{document}
\begin{minipage}{0.45\textwidth}
\centering
{\fontsize{75}{75}\selectfont NTH}\\
\leavevmode
\vtop{\halign{#\cr
\scshape Universitetet i Trondheim\cr
\scshape Norges Tekniske Høgskole\cr}}
\end{minipage}
\end{document}

@egreg Nice! Could I then have \fontsize{75}{75}\selectfont NTH as my width by including thtat line after \vtop?

@Holene Yes, but you have to choose a size such that the word spreading in the lower lines is not too large.

@egreg Right now it looks like this: grab.by/myvI . I would like NTH to set the overall width for the two last lines. I didn't notice untill now that They don't completely match..

@Holene And, finally, no need to guess the width at all

\mbox{\vbox{\halign{#\cr
{\fontsize{60}{60}\selectfont NTH}\cr
\scshape Universitetet i Trondheim\cr
\scshape Norges Tekniske Høgskole\cr}}}

Or with the fontsize you prefer; it depends on the typeface, of course. With Times that I used, 75 is way too large.

With Latin Modern it's still too wide. Maybe 70.

It runs if I comment out your block from the .cls-file that generates the layout.

@Holene Aha! If you want to put that in a definition you have to say \halign{##\cr

@Holene use ## instead of #, that's my guess

@tohecz Ciao, Tom!

@egreg Hello!

@tohecz Compiling! Thanks =)

@egreg How do you do?

Going to catch the train. See you later.

Can someone help me debugging this error message:

l.72 \addvspace {10pt}

I get it every other time I compile my thesis. It's like 5 such messages in a row, and I may just <return> my way through. Can't observe the error in my PDF...

@user4035 haven't noticed a bug come in, do you see it on the bug tracker? But see the chat thread starting here:

@Holene I'm not sure what you mean but don;t do \sloppy Universitetet i Trondheim} or ` {\fontsize{75}{75}\selectfont NTH }` as in both cases it makes the scope end before the paragraph which gives the wrong baseline for a font change and means \sloppy does nothing at all.

@Holene It means you are in horizontal mode at the point that l.72 \addvspace {10pt} is executed. You can't add vertical space in horizontal mode.

@DavidCarlisle Those lines were figured out by @egreg , it's no longer in my files =)

@DavidCarlisle Yeah, that much I get, but where does it originate from? I would say it shows up in ./thesis.lot...?

@Holene a buggy file is writing something to the lot that it should not. or alternatively whatever is writing addvspace to the lot should put \par in front of it

@DavidCarlisle Oh... Ok. In the thesis.lot, a lot of \addspace{10pt} are listed, and six tables (which is the correct numeber). Is it a table that wants to create the addspace?

@Holene Every chapter writes that to the file, to make a small skip between tables from different chapters. However, multiple identical commands like this effect only once.

@Holene Each \chapter command adds \addvspace{10pt} to the .lot file, which is normal. Maybe you have fiddled with the typesetting of the List of Tables?

@egreg No. But.... oh, this is going to sound really silly. Could it be because I've renewed the commands \d, \r and \u ?

@Holene should not be:

!!/texdef -t latex d

@Holene That's definitely not a good idea, \r in particular is used for å

@egreg and \r{u} ů :)

@egreg I'm working on reverting that choice :p

@tohecz Můstek

@egreg for instance

@tohecz I need to refresh my Czech.

@egreg You ought to come here ;)

For pivo and knedlovepřozelo

@tohecz I can understand "knedlo", the rest is unknown. Google doesn't help

Oh no, I'm sick! :(

@PauloCereda Oh no! :-(

@egreg try kledlik, vepr, zeli

btw, it's lunchtime for me, so see ya!

@tohecz I've realised why shipping books is so expensive. I didn't take into account the weight of the package and the fact that sellers usually need to use the signed for option, and that shoots the price up.

@tohecz Bye!

@egreg So if my redefined commands just messes up other stuff, then what is wanting to insert vertical space?

@Holene Too many variables for answering.

Yeah, I'm not surprised :p

@tohecz :) But I don't like crauts so much.

@DavidCarlisle Where is the bug tracker?

@PauloCereda May I use your duck image in a presentation? I'm doing a talk on imagination and where story ideas come from for some school kids next month.

@NicolaTalbot Madam is lulu a good option for books?

@NicolaTalbot Sure, please do! :)

@NicolaTalbot The worst part: no ice cream treatment. :(

@texenthusiast Depends if you want to market the books. If you just want to, say, bind a large document you've written but aren't interested in distributing it, then it's okay, but it you want to market and distribute your books then Lightning Source is better.

@PauloCereda Thanks! :-)

@PauloCereda Oh no! :-(

I'm really sick: I still have votes!

@PauloCereda Hot water bottle time. (Or maybe that's a cold climate cure!)

@NicolaTalbot I'm going to the pharmacy in some minutes. :)

@PauloCereda Get well soon! We need more amusing duck-related posts :-)

@NicolaTalbot awww thanks! :) I'll try to draw a new one today. :)

@PauloCereda Yay!

!!/battle

Psmith's still sleeping.

@egreg Oh my! I knew I forgot something. :)

@PauloCereda By the way. Disaster has struck! My brother-in-law discovered an error on page 17 of the duck book. I accidentally wrote "a such" instead of "such a". The brain has an amazing error correction mechanism. He read it to my niece everyday for a fortnight before he noticed. We all missed it when proof-reading the draft. Anyway, I've uploaded the correction, but it means you've got a limited edition that may one day be a collectors item ;-)

@PauloCereda Voting and waking up Psmith.

@NicolaTalbot ooh! :)

@PauloCereda Psmith, the TeX bot: Good morning! I'm Psmith, the friendly TeX bot - the p in my name is silent, as in pshrimp. I'm here as a companion to our fellow users in the typographic land.

If you need any help, just ask our chat residents. Cheerio!

!!/battle

@PauloCereda Psmith, the TeX bot: The current score is egreg 195 vs. 65 David. So far, egreg is winning.

In the spirit of beatiful LaTeX / tikz / etc. do you, the people of the TeX chat, have some good examples for 'end of chapter' or 'end of book' marks as might have been used in previous centuries ?

@NicolaTalbot: BTW don't forget to pick a date for your awesome interview. :)

@PauloCereda Oh, I'd forgotten about that. I'll wait for you to get better first.

@user4035 here (no bug for tools this year):

@ach Have a look at:

good link, thanks

Is there a question / answer that deals with dumping the preamble as a format file on a Win / MikTeX system ?

@ach not sure but search site for mylatexformat

!!/battle

@Holene Psmith, the TeX bot: The current score is egreg 215 vs. 95 David. So far, egreg is winning.

@user4035 do you mean you got that message before or you just resubmitted?

@Holene stop that

@user4035 I've got mail....

@DavidCarlisle What's up?

@Holene Just confirming that @user4035's bug report reached its destination (see tex.stackexchange.com/questions/68732/…)

@egreg In that case, you better order svíčková :)

@DavidCarlisle Ah, I thought you were responding to the battle.

!!/battle

@Holene Psmith, the TeX bot: The current score is egreg 215 vs. 105 David. So far, egreg is winning.

@egreg Remember the box you helped me with? I'm not able to get «NTH» big enough. I skipped the tgtermes package (it didn't do good to the rest of my document)...

\mbox{\vbox{\halign{##\cr
        {\fontsize{200}{200}\selectfont\bfseries N T H}\cr
        \scshape Universitetet i Trondheim\cr
        \scshape Norges Tekniske Høgskole\cr}}}

@egreg grab.by/myFe The space between the letters looks ridiculous...

@DavidCarlisle so once I have made the format file and triggered loading it in my main .tex file (with "%&preamble"), does TeX know to skip reprocessing the entire preamble ?

that is, is the correct workflow: 1.) make format with mylatexformat 2.) add line to top of my tex file 3.) compile as normal

or do I need to comment out / remove the preamble after making the format

@PauloCereda Just had a look at my diary, I can make this Sat 18th May or Sat 8th June or Sat 29th June. Wow, I didn't realise I had such a busy schedule!

@NicolaTalbot :) How about this saturday? :)

@PauloCereda Okay :-) Is 21:00 BST okay?

@ach mylatexformat (which I have only looked at quickly) is as, far as I understand it, an update of my old mylatex which is also on ctan, What happens there is that the dump occurs at the end of the preamble of the sample document but also the startup code in the new format is designed to skip over every line up to either a magic comment or \begin{document} so preamble in documents uprocessed with that format is essentially ignored

yeah I went with the 'screw it, just try it' approach

works well

@NicolaTalbot errr... UTC/GMT? :)

@DavidCarlisle

thanks for the tip

@PauloCereda GMT+1 (British Summer Time)

@NicolaTalbot aaaaaaaaaah

@ach I originally wrote mylatex for colleages in the math department I had my sun3 workstation but they had 640K 286 PC's and preloading the preamble could easily save 15 minutes per document:-)

@NicolaTalbot: sounds ok to me. :)

@PauloCereda Okay :-)

@Holene Well, if the lines below are wider than the main logo, that's what happens.

@egreg Limiting of the size of NTH?

@Holene ?

@egreg Since the lines below are wider than "NTH", I've tried to boost the size of NTH. I started at \fontsize{60}{60} and increased incrementally. No change was observed, so I tried to do really huge fonts, but NTH doesn't seem to respond to it...

Hello!

Can someone help me understand what's wrong with this one: $G^'$ ? I have never had the insight to do this, but someone near me did and I could not understand why that would be wrong...

@kan The prime should not be given as a superscript

@kan Either $G'$ or $G^\prime$

@JosephWright Quite so, I have always done that, that is more natural to me. But, why is the other thing wrong?

There must be some deep reason?

@kan The set up for ' makes it math active and auto-magically inserts the superscript

@JosephWright Oh, I see! Where can I see this definition? Some category code stuff ?

@JosephWright However, this does work: $G^{'}$

@Holene Look in the log file and you'll learn why: you're not using fully scalable fonts.

@egreg Aha. So that's the reason why. Possible to solve with Computer Modern?

@egreg Maybe @DavidCarlisle have made something ;-)

@Holene \usepackage{lmodern}\usepackage[T1]{fontenc} ?

@tohecz Hehe, yeah. I now have the largest N in the university covering my frontpage. Thanks =)

@JosephWright as it should.

Thanks @David

@Holene The "stop that" was responding to the battle:-)

Hmm, really, $G'$ looks weird! I think I'll have to work out the spacing between G and ' right...

@DavidCarlisle What is the battle all about?

And btw, how can I add more space between the lines in a multi-line title in Memoir?

@kan It doesn't make an error but it does the wrong thing

@DavidCarlisle Yes, right!

I just looked at some examples to understand this...

@Holene it's the daily rep score on the main site between myself and egreg (One of Paulo's little jokes:-)

@Holene never used memoir but I assume \\[1in] would do something

@DavidCarlisle Oh, and @egreg is kickin' your bottoms?

@Holene some days you win, some you lose, there is time yet....

@DavidCarlisle Yeah, I just don't know where the title is broken to multiple lines. But that's not changing too much, so I'll guess your fix is OK =)

@kan ' is ^\prime so a^' is a^^\prime which is an error but a^{'} is a^{^\prime} which is legal but a sup-supscript prime not a supscript one.

@DavidCarlisle :) Thanks for clearing that up.

@NicolaTalbot That was quick! I sometimes saw Missing number inserted too, should have guessed!!

@Holene In the end, both their scores are (almost) always 200 + 15*(number-of-upvotes) + (bounty-awards)

@kan I'm not usually that quick off the mark! I was actually supposed to be consulting the Java API but I switched to the TeX.SX tab in my browser and got distracted.

@tohecz =)

@NicolaTalbot OK, I'll accept your answer!! :) That nails it! :)

@DavidCarlisle People are asking your opinion about this question: tex.stackexchange.com/questions/114421/…

@MarioS.E. done:-)

@tohecz except on days when egreg picks up thousands of easy bounty points for spotting a % missing. (oh you said that at the end:-)

Close votes here please: tex.stackexchange.com/q/114422/10679

@kan any reason for using eqarray instead of align in demo example ? Did you see errors with align

@texenthusiast Hah, actually, I must say that the code is not mine (I use emacs and not Winedt!)

But, I saw the error and could not figure out what was wrong!!

@kan Ok got it

@texenthusiast I haven't tried! I can try however and see what I happens

@DavidCarlisle Thanks!

@texenthusiast OK! Align behaves sensibly! In that, when there is a line break, there is no error, but, however, if I don't, I see the error, as I should.

But, the code-spewing-code in WinEdt sucks, to put it mildly...

Are any mods about? mafp raised a meta qn:

@CharlesStewart Yes, seen that: need to look in detail later on

@JosephWright Talking to Papiro would be enough, I guess.

I don't know how you would get in touch.

what exactly is a review - when an experience user takes a post and edits it so that it may garner more attention ?

@ach not really, it depends on which type of review

@texenthusiast commented ;)

so what is a review ?

@ach A review is when a user with enough rep gets notified about an action that should be taken. There're 6 review queues: Suggested Edits (by <2k users), First Posts (of a new-comer), Close Votes and Reopen Votes (when someone else's casted a vote, you're informed so that you can cast it too or disagree), Late Answers (answers with a long period between the Q and the A), Low Quality Posts (there's a bot deciding which posts look bad, and they get into this queue)

That's how there's always a 'welcome to TeX.SE' on first posts :)

@ach not exactly, many people put that message there whenever they spot a post by a 1-rep user ;)

@tohecz thanks :)

any idea how to fix that?

Ok programming folk. I'm organizing a small conference and I want to simplify as much as possible coordinating printed and web based materials especially for the schedule etc. Is pandoc for me, or is there something simpler? The amount of stuff won't be enormous.

still, !pdfTeX error (font expansion): auto expansion is only possible with scalable

@PauloCereda libertine should be used with xelatex or lualatex ;-)

@AlanMunn pandoc is nice, docbook (XML) is an option, too

@AlanMunn What would be the "default" format for submissions?

@PauloCereda Well for the schedule we'll be creating it ourselves, so whatever I say. :) Abstracts will be submitted as PDFs, though, and it would be good to collect the accepted ones into a booklet.

But my co-organizer is not a LaTeX person and, somewhat unsophisticated w.r.t. computer stuff.

@AlanMunn I'm afraid to give suggestions, after all I'm crazy about complex workflows. :)

@AlanMunn: How about a web-based conference management system? OpenConf is a very nice option.

shutdown -h now

@dıʞsdoʇ Oh no!

chat is still online...

@PauloCereda Well I'm open to suggestions, but the main selection criterion is saving me time, and that includes learning anything new. As for OpenConf that's more complex than I need, but it looks nice for the future.

The issue isn't about managing the conference per se, but just managing some sort of web presence along with printed materials without having to do everything twice.

@AlanMunn Maybe a quick attendance registration system?

@PauloCereda Even that's not required. You're thinking too big here. This is a two day workshop with about 7 papers each day, and the total number of participants will probably be less than 50.

@PauloCereda Psmith, the TeX bot: The great 8-ball says: never in a million years.

Hello , I put my question. tex.stackexchange.com/questions/114418/… anybody can show me any example of microtype?

@PauloCereda Now that is a clear answer

@dıʞsdoʇ Psmith is rude. :)

@Pankracy microtype the package or just font expansion?

How I can change hyphen to other character?

@Pankracy does this ^^^ help?

@LordStryker Did you sort this out? I suspect you either have an outdated version of endiagram (current is v0.1c) or your version of l3kernel doesn't match...

@PauloCereda Something to make you feel better:

that feeling when you worked away at an answer to a question only to have the question change on you :(

@PauloCereda do you use inkscape2tikz or manually done?

@texenthusiast The former. :)

@PauloCereda did you see a .deb for it ?

@texenthusiast er... .deb, as in the package format for Debian?

@PauloCereda yes

@texenthusiast I don't follow. You mean, a .deb package for the Inkscape plugin?

@PauloCereda yes i could not find inkscape2tikz in repository ubuntu

@texenthusiast Ah, the extension needs to be installed manually.

@PauloCereda ok going through it i thought it needs a deb package

And finally, the forwarding of the connection works and I'm on the WiFi too!

@PauloCereda i think expl3 bird was done manually on a dimensioned grid sheet

@egreg tricky problem:-)
