titlesec, hyperref, and appendix

Hello,

I came across a bug in my document whereby appendix sections (in an article) are referred to as sections, rather than as appendices. The problem is caused by the titlesec package. Here is an MWE:


\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{titlesec,hyperref}

\begin{document}

\appendix ...

How to restore header of appendix to APPENDIX again

You just need to redefine the \chaptername which is called in the header definition:

Code: Select all

\renewcommand{\chaptermark}[1]{\markboth{\chaptername\ \thechapter.\ #1}{}}
Simply renew it in the appendix:

Code: Select all

\appendix
\renewcommand{\chaptername}{Appendix}
\part{Appendix}
HTH,

Chris

conditional statement: text is at the top/bottom of a page

Hi,

I've needed to put some long equations into a two-column paper recently. I found that Anjishnu Sarkar ( http://www.iopb.res.in/~anjishnu/ ) posted widetext.sty , an implementation of the environment from REVTeX4, which nicely places a page-wide column at the point you specify. Great. It also ...

Margin in ams math

For reference, I recently came up with a better solution by redefining the math environments:

\usepackage{calc} % to make calculations with lengths
\newlength{\myMargin}
\setlength{\myMargin}{5em}

% For align environments:
\let\oldalign\align
\let\endoldalign\endalign
\renewenvironment{align ...

Re: vector graphics

Cheers, that worked (the first option). Slightly more work but a satisfying result. Now it's a shame I can't do the same with Matlab as exporting directly to PDF from it still leaves lines looking "rubbish" and looking the same as exporting to EPS and converting with epspdfconversion.

vector graphics

Hi,

When I open my LaTeX output pdf file in Acrobat, the vector graphics look rubbish, but it looks fine in OS X Preview and when printed. By rubbish, I mean heavily aliased when zoomed out (<125%), but better when zoomed in close (>125%). I guess it's not the end of the world, just a little ...

Indenting the bibliography

Ok so I've migrated to the natbib package (it's compatibiltity with Hyperef is great!) and managed to fudge a fix:
\makeatletter
\renewcommand\@biblabel[1]{\rule{\MyIndent+2em}{0em}}
\makeatother
However, the additional 2em is necessary to make the distance between the left margin and the first ...

Indenting the bibliography

Hi everyone,

I'm currently trying to change the indent of the bibliography - both the first line indent and the hang indent. I have managed to change the hanging indent by setting the 'labelsep' length (just before invoking the bibliography), but cannot find a dimension that will change the first ...
