Roman chapter numbers

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I've worked out that I need to add:

Code: Select all

\setlength\cftchapternumwidth{3em}

and that works fine.

Roman chapter numbers

I would like chapter numbers to be in roman numerals - I, II, etc. However, in the autogenerated table of contents the space for the chapter numbers is not big enough and the larger numbers (VIII) overwrite the chapter name. Is there any way of increasing the space for the numbers?

flalign

I have a couple of equations, with text that I want to align. However flalign works like a table with columns, with no overlap between columns.

I would like my output to look like, which fits easily on an A4 page:

lots of text from left margin x = 1 lots of text to right margin
34x + y = 5x + y ...

wrap text in flalign

I finally worked this out - I can use a parbox:

Code: Select all

& \textbf{Solution:} & 6\left(3x + \HALF \right) &= 6\left(\dfrac{x}{2} + \dfrac{1}{3}\right) && \parbox[m]{1.5in}{\textit{Multiply both sides by } 6 \textit{ to clear the fractions}} \\

wrap text in flalign

This equation is part of a set of aligned equations:


\documentclass[a4paper]{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\begin{document}
\begin{flalign*}
& \text{Solution:} & 6\left(3x + \frac{1}{2} \right) &= 6\left(\dfrac{x}{2} + \dfrac{1}{3}\right) + 6\left(\dfrac{x}{2} + \dfrac{1}{3}\right) + 6\left ...

Thanks, Joseph!

pdfsubject isn't recognised, but using hypersetup works great.

PDF properties

PDF files have properties such as author and title. Is there any way of setting these via LaTeX?

margin notes

I've trying to typeset a book which is duplex - with different running headers on left and right pages. Margin notes must always be on the left side of the page. However marginpar is not the easiest command to use.

The following is a one page example. Why don't the margin notes appear ...

Thanks! That works really well and gives the great looking output we expect from LaTeX.

Re: Maths and enumerate

That's a good solution, thanks. However, the item number is centered vertically with regard to the item content. Is is possible so that the top line of the item content is aligned with the item number?
