An -auxiliary package, <i>combinet</i>, allows use of the <code>\</code><code>title</code>s -and <code>\</code><code>author</code>s (etc.) of the <code>\</code><code>import</code>ed documents to appear in -the global table of contents. -<p/><i>Subfiles</i> is used in the component files of a multi-file -project, and the corresponding <i>subfiles</i> is used in the -master file; arrangements may be made so that the component files will -be typeset using different page format, etc., parameters than those -used when they are typeset as a part of the main file. -<p/>A more ‘raw’ toolkit is offered by Matt Swift’s <i>includex</i> and -<i>newclude</i> packages, both part of the <i>frankenstein</i> -bundle. Note that Matt believes <i>includex</i> is obsolete -(though it continues to work for this author); furthermore, its -replacement, <i>newclude</i> remains “in development”, as it has -been since 1999. -<p/>Both <i>includex</i> and <i>newclude</i> enable you to -‘<code>\</code><code>includedoc</code>’ complete articles (in the way that you -‘<code>\</code><code>include</code>’ chapter files in an ordinary report). The preamble -(everything up to <code>\</code><code>begin{document}</code>), and everything after -<code>\</code><code>end{document}</code>, is ignored by both packages. Thus the -packages don’t “do the whole job” for you, though: you need to -analyse the package use of the individual papers, and ensure that a -consistent set is loaded in the preamble of the main report. (Both -packages require <i>moredefs</i>, which is also part of the bundle.) -<p/>A completely different approach is to use the <i>pdfpages</i> -package, and to include articles submitted in PDF format into a -a PDF document produced by PDFLaTeX. The package -defines an <code>\</code><code>includepdf</code> command, which takes arguments similar to -those of the <code>\</code><code>includegraphics</code> command. With keywords in the -optional argument of the command, you can specify which pages you want -to be included from the file named, and various details of the layout -of the included pages. -<dl> -<dt><tt><i>combine.cls</i></tt><dd><a href="ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/combine.zip">macros/latex/contrib/combine</a> (<a href="ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/combine.tar.gz">gzipped tar</a>, <a href="http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/combine/">browse</a>) -<dt><tt><i>combinet.sty</i></tt><dd><a href="ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/combine.zip">macros/latex/contrib/combine</a> (<a href="ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/combine.tar.gz">gzipped tar</a>, <a href="http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/combine/">browse</a>) -<dt><tt><i>includex.sty</i></tt><dd>Distributed in the “unsupported” part of - <a href="ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/frankenstein.zip">macros/latex/contrib/frankenstein</a> (<a href="ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/frankenstein.tar.gz">gzipped tar</a>, <a href="http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/frankenstein/">browse</a>) -<dt><tt><i>moredefs.sty</i></tt><dd>Distributed as part of <a href="ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/frankenstein.zip">macros/latex/contrib/frankenstein</a> (<a href="ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/frankenstein.tar.gz">gzipped tar</a>, <a href="http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/frankenstein/">browse</a>) -<dt><tt><i>newclude.sty</i></tt><dd>Distributed as part of <a href="ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/frankenstein.zip">macros/latex/contrib/frankenstein</a> (<a href="ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/frankenstein.tar.gz">gzipped tar</a>, <a href="http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/frankenstein/">browse</a>) -<dt><tt><i>pdfpages.sty</i></tt><dd><a href="ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/pdfpages.zip">macros/latex/contrib/pdfpages</a> (<a href="ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/pdfpages.tar.gz">gzipped tar</a>, <a href="http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/pdfpages/">browse</a>) -<dt><tt><i>subfiles.cls, etc.</i></tt><dd><a href="ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/subfiles.zip">macros/latex/contrib/subfiles</a> (<a href="ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/subfiles.tar.gz">gzipped tar</a>, <a href="http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/subfiles/">browse</a>) -</dl> -<p/><p>This question on the Web: <a href="http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=multidoc">http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=multidoc</a> -</body> |
