User Guide

Please first complete the thesis configurations according to Editing Thesis Configurations, then follow the steps below for template usage:

Main LaTeX File

All \input{./path/to/texfile} commands in main.tex can be reordered, or removed through commenting or deletion.

Oral Defense Verification Letter

Please place the approved oral defense verification letter in PDF format in the ./frontpages folder and name it verification.pdf. Alternatively, modify the filename in \renderverification as shown below:

\renderverification{./path/to/pdf}                  % Render Verification Letter

If there is no verification letter yet, comment out \renderverification and use \makeverification to generate a blank verification letter, as shown below:

\makeverification                                   % Verification Letter
% \renderverification{frontpages/verification}      % Render Verification Letter

Watermark

Please download the latest version of the watermark from National Chung Cheng University Thesis System and place the watermark file in the ./figures folder, naming it watermark.jpg. Alternatively, modify the filename in \makewatermark as shown below:

\makewatermark{0.25}{./path/to/watermark}           % Watermark

Thesis main text

Please write the various parts of the thesis in the different .tex documents as provided in the frontpages、sections、backpages folders.

You can use \clearpage appropriately in the content to force a page break. For other LaTeX basic syntax, please refer to LaTeX Basic Syntax.

Bibliography

Please use the BibTeX format for references, and place the reference file (.bib) in the ./backpages folder, naming it references.bib. Alternatively, modify the filename in \bibliography as shown below:

\bibliography{./path/to/bib}                        % References Database

We recommend using the free Zotero reference management tool with Better BibTeX for Zotero installed.
Organize your references into folders and export the folder in Better BibTeX format as a references.bib file, with the Keep updated option selected.
This way, whenever a new reference is added in Zotero, the references.bib file will automatically update, allowing the reference to be cited in LaTeX.
