LaTeX output

Emit the paper as LaTeX, with support for a university or journal template supplied by the user.

When to use

  1. The user explicitly asks for LaTeX output
  2. The user supplied a LaTeX template
  3. The target journal or university requires LaTeX

Template directory

The user can drop template files into latex-templates/:

latex-templates/
├── README.md              # usage notes
├── template.cls           # template class file
├── template.sty           # template style file
└── main-template.tex      # example main file

Checklist

  • [ ] Check latex-templates/ for a user template
  • [ ] Ask the user whether to use it
  • [ ] Parse the template structure (sectioning commands, formatting requirements)
  • [ ] Create the .tex chapter files against the template
  • [ ] Create main.tex
  • [ ] Create references.bib
  • [ ] Verify that it compiles

@article{author2023title,
    author = {Zhang, San and Li, Si},
    title = {Paper title},
    journal = {Journal name},
    year = {2023},
    volume = {10},
    number = {2},
    pages = {100-110},
}
 
@book{author2022book,
    author = {Wang, Wu},
    title = {Book title},
    publisher = {Publisher},
    year = {2022},
    address = {Place of publication},
}
 
@inproceedings{author2021conf,

    title = {Conference paper title},
    booktitle = {Conference name},
    year = {2021},
    pages = {50-55},
}

For Chinese-language entries, keep the original CJK author names and titles in the .bib file and compile with XeLaTeX plus a GB/T 7714 bibliography style.

Adapting to common templates

Tsinghua University (ThuThesis)
latex
\documentclass[degree=master]{thuthesis}

Special commands:

  • \thusetup{...} — set thesis metadata
  • \makecover — generate the cover
  • \frontmatter — front matter
  • \mainmatter — main matter
  • \backmatter — back matter
University of Chinese Academy of Sciences (ucasthesis)
latex
\documentclass{ucasthesis}
Journal templates

Journal formats vary; parse whatever template the user provides.

Compilation

Record the compile commands in plan/notes.md:

`markdown
## LaTeX compilation
 
### Recommended toolchains
- TeXLive (cross-platform)
- MacTeX (macOS)
- MiKTeX (Windows)
 
### Commands

xelatex main.tex bibtex main xelatex main.tex xelatex main.tex

 
### One-shot

latexmk -xelatex main.tex

Converting from Markdown
Markdown to LaTeX
If the user already has Markdown content, convert it:
  1. Heading: # Title → \chapter{Title}
  2. Bold: **text** → \textbf{text}
  3. Quote: > quote → \begin{quote}quote\end{quote}
  4. Code: ` code  → \texttt{code}`
  5. List: - item → \begin{itemize}\item item\end{itemize}
Watch out for
  • LaTeX special characters must be escaped: # $ % & _ { } ~ ^
  • CJK text requires XeLaTeX
  • Use relative paths for figures
Error handling
No template found
"No LaTeX template detected. Choose one:
1. Supply the template files (drop them into latex-templates/)
2. Use the default article class
3. Use the ctexart class (Chinese)
4. Stay with Markdown"
Incomplete template
"A template was detected, but [filename] is missing.
Please complete the template, or fall back to the defaults."
