LaTeX Tools and Templates

I'm trying to get into writing LaTeX class files. Here's some examples of things I've come up with.

UMass Masters/Synthesis Proposal Form

• umass-masters-proposal.cls -- LaTeX class file
• umass-masters-proposal.tex -- Sample LaTeX file using the class file
• umass-masters-proposal.pdf -- PDF output from the sample

UMass Synthesis Proposal Form

• umass-synthesis-proposal.cls -- LaTeX class file
• umass-synthesis-proposal.tex -- Sample LaTeX file using the class file
• umass-synthesis-proposal.pdf -- PDF output from the sample

Draft Style

This style file adds "DRAFT" and a timestamp to the top of each page of a document. Also, you can use the environment newtext to mark sections of your paper in red text.

• tdsdraft.sty -- LaTeX style file
• tdsdraft.tex -- Sample using the draft style
• tdsdraft.pdf -- PDF output from the sample

Anonymize Style

This style file includes all the functionality of the draft style, but also includes primitives for anonymizing a submission for publication. You can mark It includes draft, submission and final modes.

You can mark text sections as \anon, which will be replaced by [anonymized] in the document text. Anonymous footnotes and citations are also possible. The package also creates a boolean variable called @reviewcopy that lets you conditionally change the document in more complex ways for the review process.
