tuos-poster

A LaTeX class (based on the beamerposter) that roughly follows the PowerPoint Poster guidelines 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 and of the 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.
