hi again,
please bear with me I am ultra-newbie with LaTeX.
The reason I took this up is because the books that I want although available they are in html or plain text format. These are latin texts, project gutemberg has some epubs but their are not the whole collection. Books by latin authors without transliteration are sold by very few publishers and they are mad expensive, to the tune of $60 apiece.
So far I have had relative success with this:
Code:
\documentclass{book}
\usepackage[paperwidth=88.184mm,paperheight=113.854mm,margin=2mm]{geometry}
\title{Aeneidos}
\author{Vergilius Maron}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\usepackage{xunicode}
\usepackage{xltxtra}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\usepackage[tiny,compact]{titlesec}
\usepackage[absolute]{textpos}
\setcounter{secnumdepth}{0}
\usepackage[8pt]{extarticle}
\usepackage{savetrees}
\begin{document}
\thispagestyle{empty}
\begin{textblock*}{\paperwidth}(0mm,0mm)
\noindent\includegraphics[width=\paperwidth,height=\paperheight]{Vergilius.jpg}
\end{textblock*}
\null
\clearpage
\maketitle
\tableofcontents
\chapter{LIBER I}
\label{sec:LIBER I}
...
vi superum saevae memorem Iunonis ob iram; \\
5multa quoque et bello passus, dum conderet urbem, \\
inferretque deos Latio, genus unde Latinum, \\
...
But not all is purrty. For instance I would like to squeeze my table of contents on a single page, as it's now the spacing splits my TOC and puts two chapters on a new page.
1.- How can I tweak the spacing between lines in the table of contents?
The next problem has to do with this:
Code:
\chapter{LIBER I}
\label{sec:LIBER I}
Somehow both
Chapter and
Liber show up on each chapter.
2.- How can I make 'chapter' disappear and just have liber?
thanks, getting there little by little.
