I found a post here from a year or so back that touched on 6×9 PDF output. I managed to successfully change the page size with geometry like so:
\usepackage[margin=1in, paperwidth=6in, paperheight=9in]{geometry}

This succeeds in getting me a 6"×9" page and text area on that page. However, I do ...

Is there a way these internal commands could be nullified somehow? I just noticed in one document the author and title field are empty and I can't figure out why, that's why I'm asking.

They're cleared by \maketitle, to save memory.

You could do


\makeatletter
\let\m@ketitle=\maketitle
\def ...

TeX doesn't care where you put your files. If you have your files in /wrap/chapN/chapN.tex, you have to \include{chapN/chapN} in LaTeX....if your files are in /wrap/chapN/trunk/chapN.tex, just \include{chapN/trunk/chapN}, etc.

(but I have to ask...WTF if your revision control system trying to ...

Thank you for your reply. I did try something like this:
\def\@chapter[#1]#2{\ifnum \c@secnumdepth >\m@ne
\refstepcounter{chapter}%
\typeout{\@chapapp\space\thechapter.}%
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}%
{\protect\vskip 12\p@\numberline{\thechapter .}#1}
This does add the vertical space but ...

Hi,

I'm new to LaTeX. Things had been going swimmingly until I hit a piece of text saying something to the end of:

"... Smith's (2002, 2004)..."

I know how to do the multiple references, but not the apostrophe and 's' on the end of Smith. My BibTeX file has references like Smith_creation_2002 ...

\def\@chapter[#1]#2{\ifnum \c@secnumdepth >\m@ne
\refstepcounter{chapter}%
\typeout{\@chapapp\space\thechapter.}%
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}%
{\protect\numberline {\thechapter .}#1}%


At this point, where you add \numberline ... to the toc, you could add some vertical space. A much ...

Hi all !

I've got a quite long bibliography and I would like to add a capital letter before each alphabetical group (I use natbib package with apalike style).
I know how to do it for an index :

But I don't know how to do it for bibliography, or even if it's possible or not.

Does ...

Following the link in my last reply you would have found out that the \setlength command is the way to go. This by the way is also suggested in every basic LaTeX documentation.

You can see from the picture that the two equations are on the same page , so it's obvious that the stretchiness of the ...

Or use an alternative to bibtex: there's bibtexu which is supposed to know unicode, or cl-bibtex (I've only used the latter)

\pdfglyphtounicode{IJ}{0049 004A}
\pdfglyphtounicode{ij}{0069 006A}


FYI, you shouldn't be using those characters; they're only in Unicode for compatibility with some pre-Unicode encoding; you should be using "ij" (distinct letters, not a ligature) in any new material you create.

That correct ...
