# tuos-poster
|
||||||
|
A LaTeX class (based on the [beamerposter](https://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/beamerposter))
|
||||||
|
that roughly follows the
|
||||||
|
[PowerPoint Poster guidelines](http://www.sheffield.ac.uk/marketing/visual-identity/downloads/powerpoint-templates)
|
||||||
|
of The University of Sheffield.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Disclaimer
|
||||||
|
Please not that this LaTeX setup is neither endorsed nor officially
|
||||||
|
supported by the University of Sheffield.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Prerequisites
|
||||||
|
* The `tuos-presentation` theme/class.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Installation
|
||||||
|
* Copy the various `*.sty` and `*.cls` files into your `texmf` tree.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Usage
|
||||||
|
The `tuos-poster` class (respectively, a beamerposter theme) is a
|
||||||
|
customised setup of the
|
||||||
|
[beamer class](https://www.ctan.org/pkg/beamer) and of the
|
||||||
|
[beamerposter](https://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/beamerposter) package.
|
||||||
|
Thus, please consult their documentation for detailed use. In general, you
|
||||||
|
can either use the class file (i.e., `\documentclass{tuos-poster}` or use
|
||||||
|
`\usetheme{tuos-poster}` in a regular beamerposter setup.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The class/theme provides the following options:
|
||||||
|
* `colour`: for using the colour variant of The University of
|
||||||
|
Sheffield layout (default is the white variant).
|
||||||
|
* `plainfonts`: For using the standard LaTex fonts instead of the cooperate fonts of The
|
||||||
|
University of Sheffield. There are mainly two reasons why you want to
|
||||||
|
use this option:
|
||||||
|
* The cooperate fonts do not provide mathematical symbols. Thus, if
|
||||||
|
you want to write mathematical content in your letter, the LaTeX
|
||||||
|
fonts might be the better choice (or add a suitable LaTeX package
|
||||||
|
providing mathematical symbols.
|
||||||
|
* You do not want to fiddle with your font installation.
