naist-thesis-tmpl-en

A modern LaTeX template for your doctoral dissertation or master's thesis of NAIST Graduate School of Information Science.

(Japanese version is here)

Features

The template:

• consists of some .tex files instead of a .sty file for the sake of usability and customizability.
• uses the KOMA-Script bundle which provides replacements for the article, report, and book classes with emphasis on typography and versatility.
• uses hyperref.sty which produces hypertext links in the document.

Usage

$ git clone [email protected]:kmiya/naist-thesis-tmpl-en.git

FAQ

``Contents'' should contain itself

Change the following line of setting.tex

\usepackage[nottoc]{tocbibind}

to

\usepackage{tocbibind}

Notice that the change might break the layout of ``Contents'' on a certain LaTeX environment (thanks to @matcha-shake for reporting this issue).
