Documentation for the endnotes package (still a problem)

Post by Bozack »

Hi,

I've tried to find the documentation of the endnotes package for quite a while now - I want to change a lot of things going on when I use the package, including:

* Make the text normal size instead of footnote size
* Make the numbers appear normal instead of superscripted
* Make the section-name be danish (Noter) instead of english (Notes)
* Control the spacing of the different endnotes (such that it looks like a list, not like a bunch of text)
* Stop it from indenting every new line in the list

Does anyone know how to do any of these things? Or can anyone else find the documentation of the package?

Sincerely,
Bozack


EDIT: All the points above have been solved, but a new one appeared: Look at post #3.

Hi there - I may be able to assist you.

In the preamble add:

\renewcommand\enoteformat{\noindent\theenmark.\hspace{0.06in}}
\renewcommand\notesname{Endnotes}

The first command will have the numbers as 1. 2. 3.....instead of superscripts.
The second command allows you to change the heading to whatever you want, you will type in Noter instead of Endnotes.

And for the indent, spacing and font size issues, I had to create a group at the point of my document where I entered \theendnotes. Something like the following may work for you:

\begingroup
\parindent 0pt
\parskip 6pt
\def\enotesize{\small}
\theendnotes
\endgroup


I'm also looking for a couple of answers on endnotes. I need to suppress the auto header "Notes" from my document. On the left page right header I have the word "Notes" on the last couple of pages of my book chapters; on the pages following the endnotes. How to I suppress that?

Thank you, worked like a charm! :D

Unfortunately I can't help with this, sorry. I hope someone else can :)

But (there's aaallways a but...) I then have a new little problem. The command

Code: Select all

\renewcommand\notesname{Slutnoter}
gives me the correct section-name, but the spacing after this section is a little too large. It looks like
How it looks
How it looks
wrong.png (5.8 KiB) Viewed 5081 times
when I would like it to look like
How it should be looking
How it should be looking
right.png (5.11 KiB) Viewed 5081 times
The last can be achieved by instead using the command

Code: Select all

\renewcommand\notesname{Slutnoter \vspace*{-0.5cm}}
but this makes my header look rather stupid:
The bad header
The bad header
badheader.PNG (3.44 KiB) Viewed 5081 times
when the text ought to be above the line.

So, how do I make the spacing directly after this specific section smaller, while not screwing up the section-naming itself?

As for customising the page headers:

\makeatletter
\def\enoteheading{\section*{\notesname
\@mkboth{}{}}%
\mbox{}\par\vskip-\baselineskip}
\makeatother

will turn them empty.
