It is compatible with two compilation methods: pdflatex and xelatex. The version number of this class is reported at the top of the class file sapthesis.cls and in the pdf manual sapthesis-doc.pdf. The documentation is provided in the file sapthesis-doc.pdf. ** Installation instruction ***************************************** The simplest way to install sapthesis is by the package manager of your TeX distribution (TeX Live or MiKTeX). Instead, if you want to install sapthesis manually, you have to download the sapthesis.zip archive from CTAN or, better, from the official sapthesis website http://biccari.altervista.org/c/informatica/latex/sapthesis.php The sapthesis.zip archive contains: 1. sapthesis.cls (main file) 2. sapthesis-doc.pdf (manual of sapthesis.cls) 3. sapthesis-doc.tex (source of the manual) 4. sapthesis-example.pdf (a document example) 5. sapthesis-example.tex (source of the example) 6. README (this file) 7. sapienza-MLred-pos.pdf (red university logo) 8. sapienza-MLblack-pos.pdf (black university logo) 9. sapthesis.bst (an english BibTeX style) The following files should end up in your texmf tree (or your localtexmf tree) at these locations: /tex/latex/sapthesis/sapthesis.cls /tex/latex/sapthesis/sapienza-MLred-pos.pdf /tex/latex/sapthesis/sapienza-MLblack-pos.pdf /doc/latex/sapthesis/sapthesis-doc.pdf /doc/latex/sapthesis/sapthesis-doc.tex /doc/latex/sapthesis/sapthesis-example.pdf /doc/latex/sapthesis/sapthesis-example.tex /doc/latex/sapthesis/README /bibtex/bst/sapthesis/sapthesis.bst Then, you need to update the file database. Alternatively, you can simply copy sapthesis.cls and sapthesis.bst together with sapienza-MLred-pos.pdf and sapienza-MLblack-pos.pdf into your local work directory where your thesis files will live.
