Bold in section title, but now also bold in TOC

Hi there,

in one of my subsection titles I have a subscript, which did not get turned bold. Hence I used textbf. However, this means that now in the table of contents, this particular subscript is also bold! That just looks weird...

Any idea how I could have it bold in the subsection title, but ...

tell includepdf where to put the PDF

Hi there,

I have A4 pages as PDFs that I would like to incorporate into my document. They are essentially figures, so I would like LateX to put them in the most convenient position (like a float). However it appears as if includepdf just places the PDF right were it came across the command.

How do ...

Postfix to a citation

Hi there,

I am currently using the harvard citation styles, which has a
\citeaffixed{citation}{prefix} command, so that additional text can be in the brackets of the citation. However, this only works for having text in front of the citation, not after it! How can I do the following:
bla bla bla ...

Figure in list of figures but without caption

Hi there,

Is it possible to have a silent caption on a figure?
Basically, my figure already includes its caption inside the figure file, so that I don't want to add another one with Latex. However, I do want the figure to appear in the list of figures! Is there any way to do that?

Thanks!
Winnie

nomenclature change separation space

Hello there,

I am currently putting together a list of abbreviations for my thesis and it works well with the nomenclature package. However, I would like to change the space that exists between the abbreviation and the explanation. At the moment it is only separated by a small space, which means ...

newcommand superscript

Sweet, thanks!
\textnormal prevents the italic shape which is normally used in math sub-/superscripts.
Which is exactly why I'm using it... :)

newcommand superscript

Hi there,

I would like to define a new command to make sub- and superscripts easier. I found this online, which works well:

\newcommand{\super}[1]{\ensuremath{^{\textnormal{#1}}}}
\newcommand{\sub}[1]{\ensuremath{_{\textnormal{#1}}}}

However, my normal text is 11pt and thus the sub/superscripted ...
