tuos-presentation

A LaTeX class (based on the beamer class) that roughly follows the PowerPoint 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-logo style.
  • The tuos-fonts style (optional).

Installation

  • Copy the various *.sty and *.cls files into your texmf tree.

Usage

The tuos-presentation class (respectively, a beamer theme) is a customised setup of the beamer class. Thus, please see the beamer documentation for its detailed use. In general, you can either use the class file (i.e., \documentclass{tuos-presentation} or use \usetheme{tuos-presentation} in a regular beamer setup.

The class/theme provides the following options:

  • compress: using a layout that offers more space than the default layout by putting the university logo and the frame title side-by-side.
  • 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.

Moreover, a few new commands are provided that generate standard slides such as \PartFrame{}, \ThanksFrame{}, or \CopyrightFrame.
