Tips & Tricks with LaTeX & Overleaf

Jan. 27, 2022 (TH)
3:30 PM - 4:30 PM HST
Online via Zoom

Presented by Richard Medina,CLT Assistant Faculty Specialist in Human-Computer Interaction

LaTeX is a typesetting system that is commonly used to produce beautifully formatted documents. It is a common format required by many publishers, academic journals and conferences, grant funders, and in academic settings. It takes care of the formatting and lets the writer focus on content. In this demonstration, Richard will provide a brief background on LaTeX and Overleaf (an application designed to make LaTeX authoring more intuitive). He will share tips on document formatting (margins, line spacing, typesetting), document layouts, and citation and bibliographic tools.
