utdiss2
- The new UT dissertation style file package, utdiss2, Version 05
- In gzipped tar format.
- In zip format for Macintosh
and Windows PC users.
This style file OFFICIALLY MEETS all
of the requirements of the Office of Graduate Studies instructions dated March,
2001 (doctoral) and May, 2001 (masters). It produces acceptable PDF files for
doctoral dissertations as well as acceptable printouts for master's theses
and reports. It has comprehensive examples and instructions and produces a
complete "fake"
dissertation, thesis, or report to show what the finished product looks like.
- Frequently Requested Style Files:
In case your LaTeX installation is missing any external LaTeX packages
needed to compile utdiss2 look on
CTAN (listed on the LaTeX Links page).
PDF output notes
- How to get nice
looking PDF files from LaTeX and DVIPS.
Travis Metcalf's page on how to get PDF files that look good
on your monitor as well as your printer.
NOTE: If your installation of LaTeX is recent enough, you can use the
following command to generate a PDF file with good looking screen
fonts in addition to good looking printing fonts:
- dvips -Ppdf -t letter dissfile -o
- ps2pdf dissfile.ps dissfile.pdf
The version of dvips with Red Hat Linux 7.2 (tetex-dvips-1.0.7-38.2) is
recent enough, but the version with RHL 7.1 (tetex-dvips-1.0.7-15) appears
to not be.
