Photos, I was missing an easy-to-use photo book application. +In 2020, I started to develop my own solution. +What started with some SVG templates and shell scripts ended up in the Xput class, a declarative desktop publishing approach. +\par +With Xput you can create single- and double-sided documents, create pages with margins, safety margins, and bleed, use templates, align text and graphics in a grid, wrap text across multiple pages and use before pages. +Generic templates, automatic grid layout and a simple and consistent user interface make it easier than ever to create graphics-rich documents with \LaTeX. +Under the hood Xput uses the TikZ and tcolorbox packages, ImageMagick and Inkscape. + +\section{Document}\label{sec:document} + +The document options described in the following can be either set as a document option (|\documentclass[twoside]{xput}|) or with a macro (|\twoside|) in the preamble. + +\DescribeMacro {\documentclass} +Use the class and define your

results in a document with left and right pages. +When you create a two-sided document, your document always has an even number of pages. +If you create a document with an odd number of pages, an

+You can set the lengths |page width| and |page height|. +The default page size is |210mm| by |297mm|. + +\DescribeMacro {\bleed} +You can set the |bleed| length. +It applies to all paper edges. +The default bleed is |0mm|. +You can override the bleed for each edge separately by defining the lengths |top bleed|, |inner bleed|, |bottom bleed|, |outer bleed|. +The paper size results from the page size and the bleed. + +\DescribeMacro {\safetymargin} +The |safety margin| is the only length that has no influence on the final result. +Its only purpose is to control the safe zone during editing. +It is |0mm| by default and can be configured for each edge by defining |top safety margin|, |inner safety margin|, |bottom safety margin| and |outer safety margin|. + +\DescribeMacro {\margin} +\DescribeMacro {\gutter} +You can set the lengths |margin| and |gutter| for the document, for a page (see section~\ref{sec:pages}) or for a grid (see section~\ref{sec:grid}). +The default margin is |20mm|, the default gutter is |0mm|. +Similar to bleed and safety margin, the margin can be defined for each edge individually by setting |top margin|, |outer margin|, |bottom margin| and |inner margin|. + +You can create documents with cover pages. +\DescribeMacro {\coverwidth} +\DescribeMacro {\coverheight} +Read more about creating cover pages in section~\ref{sec:pages}. +You can set the lengths |coverwidth| and |coverheight|. +By default, the cover pages are the same size as the inside pages. +If you want to create a cover with a spine, use the |fanfold| or |cover| option described in section~\ref{sec:document}. +In this case the length |spinewidth| takes effect. +The default spine width is |3mm|. +\par +You can overwrite the bleed and the safety margin for cover pages. +To do this, prefix the respective lengths described above. +For example, define |cover inner bleed| or |cover safety margin|. + +\subsection{Page Graphics and Colors}\label{subsec:colors} + +You can define a page graphic and a page color with the options |page graphic| and |page color|. +Set the option |color| to define the text color. +These options can be defined for the document or for each page (see section~\ref{sec:pages}). +\par +Read how to set the scale and crop of a page graphic with the |\newgraphic| macro in section~\ref{sec:content}. + +\subsection{Layout Guides} + +The layout guides described in the following can be either set as a document option (|\documentclass[grid]{xput}|) or using a macro (|\grid|) in the preamble or the document. +Layout guides can be switched on (|\safezone|) or off (|\nosafezone|). + +\DescribeMacro {\grid} +The |grid| option visualizes the margin and the grid gutters with green lines. +Read more about the grid in section~\ref{sec:grid}. +\DescribeMacro {\safezone} +The |safezone| layout guide shows a red border for the bleed and a thin pink line to indicate the safety margin. +\DescribeMacro {\cuttingmarks} +As an alternative to |safezone|, you can also use |cutting marks| to display cutting marks. +\DescribeMacro {\graphpaper} +Show a graph paper with the |graph paper| option. + +\begin{figure}[h] +\begin{tikzpicture} +

+\DescribeMacro {\placeholders} +The |placeholders| option shows template placeholders. +Read more about templates in section~\ref{sec:templates}. +\DescribeMacro {\fillpages} +If you create a document with a cover and a first right hand page, use the |fill pages| option during editing to add blank pages to get a better impression of the final result. + +\subsection{Draft Mode}\label{subsec:draftmode} + +The |draft| option is a shortcut to enable the options |placeholders|, |cutting marks| and |fill pages|. +It also speeds up rebuilding the PDF when changing the document. + +\section{Pages}\label{sec:pages} + +\DescribeMacro {\page} +Create a page with the macro |\page|\oarg{options}\marg{content}. +You can overwrite the document options |margin|, |top margin|, |bottom margin|, |inner margin|, |outer margin|, |gutter|, |page color|, |page graphic| and |color| for each page. + +Use the option |double| to create a double page. +When creating a double page after a left page, a right page is automatically inserted before the double page. +The option |double| is only recognized for double sided documents. +\par +Use the options |front cover| or |back cover| to create a front or back cover. +If you have a back cover and a front cover, the back cover page must be defined first. +If no option is active, the front cover is placed as the first page and the back cover as the last page of the document. +In this case, the only difference from normal pages is that the cover pages are not counted in the page numbering. +\par +If the option |fanfold| or |cover| is selected, the back and front covers are laid out on one paper so that the cover is suitable for a book with a hard or soft cover (see section~\ref{sec:document}). +Space is reserved between the back and front covers for the spine. +Set the |spine width| document option as described in section~\ref{subsec:size}. +\par +With the options |hpos| and |vpos| you can set the default grid alignment for a page. +Read more about the grid in the next section. + +\DescribeMacro {\setpagecolor}Alternativly to the option you can use the macro |\setpagecolor|\marg{color} to set the page color for all following pages. + +\DescribeMacro {\setpagegraphic}With the macro |\setpagegraphic|\oarg{options}\marg{name} you can define a page graphic for all following pages. +The name references a graphic version created with the |\newgraphic| macro (see section~\ref{sec:content}). +If no graphic version with the given name exists, the macro uses the name as the file name. +You can change the clipping by defining relative decimal values for the options |scale| (>1), |hpos| and |vpos| (0-1). + +\DescribeMacro {\newbeforepage}With the macro |\newbeforepage|\marg{name}\marg{content} you can create a reusable page layer, that can be set before pages. +\DescribeMacro {\setbeforepage} +Use the macro |\setbeforepage|\marg{name} to define a before page for all following pages or use the page option |before page| to specify a before page for a individual page. + +\DescribeMacro {\ifleftpage} +\DescribeMacro {\ifrightpage} +Use the condition |\ifleftpage|\marg{content} and |\ifrightpage|\marg{content} to check for the current page alignment. + +\DescribeMacro {\leftpage} +Within a page scope you can use the |\leftpage|\marg{content} macro to place content only on a left page. +In comparison to the |\ifleftpage|\marg{content} condition, the macro sets a grid for a single page. +That way you can combine single with double page layouts. +\DescribeMacro {\rightpage} +Accordingly you can use the |\rightpage|\marg{content} macro. + +\section{Grid}\label{sec:grid} + +The grid allows you to create rows with cells. +You can define width and height relations between rows and cells. +All definitions are relative. +The size and position results from these relations and the configured dimensions page width, page height, margin and gutter. + +\DescribeMacro{\setgrid} +Create a grid with the macro |\setgrid|\oarg{options}\marg{config}. +The grid configuration is a nested list of rows and cells. +A cell is defined by a number that describes the width ratio to the other cells in the row. +The default grid describes a row with one cell: + +\begin{verbatim} + \setgrid{ + {{}}} +\end{verbatim} + +You can define a width relation between cells by adding a integer value for each cell: + +\begin{verbatim} + \setgrid{ + {{1}{2}}} +\end{verbatim} + +With an optional integer value for each row you can set a height relation between rows: + +\begin{verbatim} + \setgrid{ + {[2]{1}{2}} + {[1]{1}{2}}} +\end{verbatim} + +You can set an aspect ratio for a cell by adding a |!| to the width. +This way the aspect ratio is defined by the width of the cell and the height of the row. +If all cells in a row have a fixed aspect ratio, the aspect ratio of the row is fixed too. +In the following, a row with only fixed cells is named a fixed row. +Because the height of a fixed row is determined by the aspect ratios of the cells, the height relation to the flexible rows is broken. +In this case, you can force a height relation between flexible and fixed rows by adding a |!| to the height of the flexible row. +In the following, a row with a forced height is named a forced row. + +The example defines a first fixed row with one cell and an aspect ratio of 3:2. +The height of the second row is forced half of the height of the first row. +The cells in the second row share the available width in the ratio one to two: + +\begin{verbatim} + \setgrid{ + {[2]{3!}} + {[1!]{1}{2}}} +\end{verbatim} + +If the height of fixed and forced rows exceeds the available height, the grid shrinks to fit the available space. +The defined aspect ratios of the cells are preserved and the grid is centered horizontally. +In this case you can define the |hpos| option to align the grid horizontally. +A value of |0| aligns the grid to the left, a value of |1| aligns the grid to the right. +The default is a value of |0.5|. + +If the height of fixed and forced rows is less than the available height, all flexible rows share the excess height. +If there are no flexible rows, the grid is centered vertically. +In this case you can define the |vpos| option to align the grid vertically. +A value of |0| aligns the grid to the top, a value of |1| aligns the grid to the bottom. +The default is a value of |0.5|. + +As for a document or a page you can set |margin| and |gutter| options for a specific grid. +With the options |width|, |height|, |x| and |y| you can override the intrinsic grid size and position. +When overriding the grid size and position, you can calculate with the intrinsic values, for example |x=\x-1cm|. + +\subsection{Placing Content} + +The grid aligns content (see section~\ref{sec:content}) automatically in the given grid cells. +To set the position of a content box manually use the macro |\place|\marg{fromrow fromcell torow tocell}. +\DescribeMacro{\place} +To place content in the first row and first cell use the macro |\place{0 0 1 1}| before the content. +The definded place applies only for the following content box. +The next boxes are then again placed with auto layout. +\par +The macro accepts decimals. +That allows you to place content everywhere within the grid. +The |gutter| is taken into account when calculating the positions. + +\section{Content}\label{sec:content} + +\subsection{Text} + +\DescribeMacro{\text} +With the macro |\text|\oarg{options}\marg{text} you can place text. +Align the text vertically with the |center| and |bottom| options. +\par +The |\text| macro uses the package tcolorbox and accepts tcolorbox options, for example to set text, frame or background color and transparency. +The tcolorbox behaves slightly diffenrent then the standalone version: spacings, rules and background are removed by default. +You can change the behaviour with the tcolorbox macro |\tcbset|\marg{options}. +Also the |arc| options behaves different: if you set the |arc| to |0pt| the |outer arc| is also set to |0pt|. +\par +Add the option |breakable| to break text over multiple boxes and pages. +\DescribeMacro{\usetext} +Use the macro |\usetext|\oarg{name} to place the following text boxes in the grid. +If you want to use multiple breakable text boxes you can initialize the text with the |name| option and define a name that you then can pass to the |\usetext| option. +\par +The |\text| macro accepts the options |shadow|, |shadow size|, |shadow color|, |shadow opacity|, |shadow xshift|, |shadow yshift|, |border|, |border width|,\break |border color| and |border radius|. +Read more about shadows and borders in section~\ref{subsec:borders}. + +\subsection{Graphics} + +\DescribeMacro{\newgraphic} +Create a reusable graphic version with the |\newgraphic|\marg{name}\marg{options} macro. +Define the options |scale| (>1), |hpos| and |vpos| (0-1) to set the clipping of the graphic. +With the option |file| you can link a file. +If no file is defined, the name is used as the file name. + +\DescribeMacro{\graphic} +The |\graphic|\oarg{options}\marg{name} macro places a graphic. +The name references a graphic version created with the |\newgraphic| macro. +If no graphic version with the given name exists, the macro uses the name as the file name. + +The graphic is scaled to fit in the content box. +If the aspect ratio of the graphic differs from that of the defined content box, the graphic is cropped. +You can change the cropping by defining relative decimal values for the options |scale| (>1), |hpos| and |vpos| (0-1). +Same as the |\text| macro, the |\graphic| macro accepts the |border| and |shadow| options described in section~\ref{subsec:borders}. + +\DescribeMacro{\graphicspath} +You can use the macro |\graphicspath|\marg{dir-list} of the graphics package to specify a list of directories in which to search for graphic files. + +\subsection{Other} + +\DescribeMacro{\xput} +The macro |\xput|\marg{code} is an easy way to place arbitrary content in the grid. +Within the code block the dimensions |\width| and |\height| represent the size of the content area and can be used to create graphics, that fit and adapt to the available size. +\par +\DescribeMacro{\tikzgraphic} +The macro |\tikzgraphic|\marg{tikz code} works like the |\xput| macro, but wraps your input in a |tikzpicture|. + +\subsection{Shadows and Borders}\label{subsec:borders} + +Text and graphic content can be placed with a border or a shadow. +You can define a border or shadow for a specific content box by using the options |border width|, |border color|, |border radius| to add a border or |shadow size|, |shadow color|, |shadow opacity|, |shadow xshift|, |shadow yshift| to add a shadow. +\par +\DescribeMacro{\newborder} +\DescribeMacro{\newshadow} +Define a reusable border or shadow with the macros |\newborder|\marg{name}\marg{options} or |\newshadow|\marg{name}\marg{options}. +Apply the border or shadow to |\text| or |\graphic| with the option |border| or |shadow|. +\par +\DescribeMacro{\setborder} +\DescribeMacro{\setshadow} +To set a border or shadow within a page or document scope, use the macros |\setborder|\oarg{options}\marg{name} or |\setshadow|\oarg{options}\marg{name}. + +\section{Templates}\label{sec:templates} + +\DescribeMacro{\newtemplate} +With the macro |\newtemplate|\marg{name}\marg{layout} you can create a reusable layout. +Creating a template works the same way as creating a page. +In addition to graphics and text you can define placeholders. +\DescribeMacro{\placeholder} +Use the macro |\placeholder|\marg{fromrow fromcell torow tocell} to define a content area that can later be filled with a text or a graphic. + +\DescribeMacro{\template} +To use a template use the macro |\template|\oarg{options}\marg{name}\marg{content}. +The available options are the same as for pages. + +The macro |\template| comes with an easy way to generate templates by using a name pattern. +For example the template name \textit{sp} creates a template with a square and a portrait format placeholder. +In this case the letter |s| specifies a square (1:1) and the letter |p| a portrait (2:3) format placeholder. +Use the letter |l| to define a landscape ratio (3:2), |g| for golden ratio (5:3), |o| for golden upright ratio (3:5), |w| for wide ratio (2:1) or |f| for a flexible ratio. +With the character |-| you can start a new row. +Within a row you can mix the fixed placeholders (|s|, |p|, |l|, |g|, |o|, |w|) or use only flexible placeholders~(|f|). + +\section{Image Optimization}\label{sec:optimization} + +\DescribeMacro{\optimize} +With the macro |\optimize|\oarg{options} you can enable image optimization. +When enabled, JPG and PNG images are croped, resized and cached. +This results in fast rebuilds when changing the document. +You can set the options |density|, |quality|, |unsharp| and |downsample threshold|. +The |density| option takes a number of the pixels per inch (default |300|), the |quality| option takes numbers between 1 and 100, the |unsharp| option an ImageMagick unsharp configuration (default |2x1|) and the |downsample threshold| a decimal value greater or equal 1 (default |1.2|). +The |unsharp| option can also be applied for individual graphics. +\par +If you use image optimization and change the original graphics files, you must delete the cached versions so that the cache will update. +\DescribeMacro{\import} +The |\import| macro helps you to streamline this process. +When enabled, you need an import directory in which to place the modified files. +When the document is created, the files are moved to your image directory and the corresponding cached versions are automatically regenerated. +The import directory is either the directory \emph{import} in your working directory. +Or you can set a system wide import directory by defining the shell variable |XPUT_IMPORT_DIRECTORY|. +\par +\DescribeMacro{\preflight} +Use the |\preflight| macro to proof the image resolution. +If images have a final resolution less then 300 ppi you get a warning, if less then 200 ppi you get an error. +With preflight enabled the maximum possible resolution is shown next to each graphic. + +\end{document} |
