Secondly the chapter and section +headings are changed to be less `shouting' than the standard LaTeX +designs. Thirdly less profligate use was made of vertical spacing. +There is more information in a short document appended to the end of +adfathesis.cls (I have not progressed to using a .dtx). + +Since two sided theses are now accepted for theses, I used the +adfathesis class with the following options: + +\documentclass[a4paper,12pt,openright,twoside]{adfathesis} + +As supplied adfathesis automatically uses the Harvard package and the +supplied `adfathesis.bst' is designed to work with the Harvard +package. If you wish to use a different bst, such as `plain.bst', +this will not be appropriate. There is a class option `normalbib' +which stops the automatic use of the Harvard package, and hence allows +use of either the standard LaTeX bibliography style or an alternative +package. + +Version 2.3 + +Changes: \cleardoublepage modified to ensure that blank pages use the +empty pagestyle (from the fancyhdr documentation). Changes to default +penalty values affecting widows/orphans, following suggestions in a +post by Michael Downs on comp.text.tex. The table and table* +environments are defined to automatically swap the settings for +abovecaptionskip and belowcaptionskip, so table captions have the +correct spacing when above the table. + +Version 2.4 + +Changes: added an option `honours' that changes the titlepage to one +more appropriate to a Honours report. For this option you should set +\degreetype in the preamble to the appropriate faculty, it defaults to +`Science'. Improved vertical spacing around chapter headings. + +The files supplied are as follows: + + adfathesis.bst + adfathesis.cls + adfathesis.sty + 00readme.txt + template.tex + +Version 2.5 + +Changes: modified to use docstrip. No other changes were made. + +Stephen Harker sjh@ph.adfa.edu.au |
