The title should be set in 17 point (this can be achieved by using
\LARGE in the 11pt style) and in bold.
The document number should be inserted in the \author field.
Document numbers are obtained either from the Editor of your Working Group
or from the EAGLES Secretariat: they should not be invented arbitrarily as
we use a classification system.
The date should appear in the \date field.
All material will be centred automatically if the \maketitle
command is used, as in this document. See the
titlepage of the present document for an example.
Sometimes you may have to
intervene to indicate a better line break in a title, by inserting
where you want a break.
The table of contents is automatically constructed, in the correct sizes
and with the correct layout, by the
command \tableofcontents.
The same is the case for the list of figures: \listoffigures
and the list of tables \listoftables
Do not attempt to number sections, this is done automatically, through use of the sectioning commands. The table of contents and list of figures are numbered in roman numerals.
The file initial.tex contains various LaTeX settings and
declarations that are common to all EAGLES documents. You should include
this file right at the beginning of your document, before any other
material, via the command: \input{initial} (NB: no .tex).
The following shows the contents of initial.tex. The % character is a comment character.
