Standard chapters are based on the following elements: \chapterimage{myimage.jpg} \chapter[Short title]{Long Chapter Title} \label{ch:raisingPets} B...

As a note to anyone else dealing with these kinds of issues, I've been re-reformatting structure.tex and recompiling my document after every couple changes, and I've realized something that I've never seen mentioned elsewhere: LaTeX syntax is incredibly fragile , even compared to a language like Pyt...

The problem I'm having is a bit different, though -- the default Lagrande Orange template defines two differen...

I'm using the Lagrande Orange book template, and I need to use Unicode fonts for everything. I've figured out how to do this for specifically designated text: \usepackage[]{fontspec} \newfontfamily\unifont[]{Unicode Font Here} \begin{unifont}þøłßðđŋħ\end{unifont} But I need to change the default bod...
