This repository contains LaTeX code to create a beautifully typeset magazine. The Magazine-preamble.tex file contains custom environments for Question-and-Answer articles, author names, a preamble, and quotes.
Step 1: Click on the “Code” button and download a zip folder containing
this repository. If you have a GitHub account you could also click on
the “Use This Template” button to make your own repository and then
clone it to your computer. Open the magazine-latex-template.Rproj
file. This will open an R project within R Studio. Ensure that you have
a LaTeX distribution (for example, the TinyTeX package will be fine).
Step 2: Read the Sample Magazine to see an example of what a final magazine could look like.
Step 3: Read the Author Guide found within the Magazine/ folder to see what commands and environments are available.
Step 4: See the folder Sample-article-submission to see examples of
what your text document and images should look like.
Step 5: You can also experiment with the files in the Magazine/
folder. There is an empty file to get you started, and an example of one
article.
Step 6. Create a plain-text .txt file with the content of your
article, and save it to the Submissions/ folder.
Step 7. Create any images and save them as .jpg files in the Images/
folder.
Step 8. Model the file after the Example-Full-Magazine.Rmd file.
Step 9. Knit it to a PDF when you are done and tweak it as needed!
