Detexify LaTeX handwritten symbol recognition. Want a Mac app? Lucky you. The Mac app is finally stable enough. See how it works on Vimeo. Download the latest version here. Restriction: In addition to the LaTeX command the unlicensed version will copy a reminder to purchase a license to the clipboard when you select a symbol. You can purchase a license here: Buy Detexify for Mac If you need help contact mail@danielkirs.ch. What is this? Anyone who works with LaTeX knows how time-consuming it can be to find a symbol in symbols-a4.pdf that you just can't memorize.
How do I use it? Just draw the symbol you are looking for into the square area above and look what happens! My symbol isn't found! The symbol may not be trained enough or it is not yet in the list of supported symbols. I like this. You could spare some time training Detexify. The backend server is running on Digital Ocean (referral link) so you can also reduce my hosting costs by using that referral link. Why should I donate? Hosting of detexify costs some money. No. Yes. TeX Frequently Asked Questions -- question label "ftnsect" Searching Footnotes in LaTeX section headings The \footnote command is fragile, so that simply placing the command in \section’s arguments isn’t satisfactory. Using \protect\footnote isn’t a good idea either: the arguments of a section command are used in the table of contents and (more dangerously) potentially also in page headers.
While footnotes will work in the table of contents, it’s generally not thought a “good thing” to have them there; in the page header, footnotes will simply fail. Whatever the desirability of the matter, there’s no mechanism to suppress the footnote in the page header while allowing it in the table of contents, so the footnote may only appear in the section heading itself. To suppress the footnote in headings and table of contents: footmisc.sty macros/latex/contrib/footmisc (or browse the directory); catalogue entry Go to previous question, or next question Go to FAQ home.

It is intended to form a useful resource for everybody from new users who wish to learn, to old hands who need a quick reference.
TeX and LaTeX TeX is a computer program for typesetting documents, created by Donald Knuth. It takes a suitably prepared computer file and converts it to a form which may be printed on many kinds of printers, including dot-matrix printers, laser printers and high-resolution typesetting machines. LaTeX is a set of macros for TeX that aims at reducing the user's task to the sole role of writing the content, LaTeX taking care of all the formatting process.
A number of well-established publishers now use TeX or LaTeX to typeset books and mathematical journals. It is also well appreciated by users caring about typography, consistent formatting, efficient collaborative writing and open formats. The book is organized in different parts. Contents[edit] If you have questions related to LaTeX, ask at the Q&A. Ctan.mirror.garr.it/mirrors/CTAN/info/impatient/book.pdf. LaTeX/Mathematics. One of the greatest motivating forces for Donald Knuth when he began developing the original TeX system was to create something that allowed simple construction of mathematical formulas, while looking professional when printed. The fact that he succeeded was most probably why TeX (and later on, LaTeX) became so popular within the scientific community. Typesetting mathematics is one of LaTeX's greatest strengths. It is also a large topic due to the existence of so much mathematical notation.
If your document requires only a few simple mathematical formulas, plain LaTeX has most of the tools that you will need. Or in the preamble of the document. Mathematics environments[edit] LaTeX needs to know beforehand that the subsequent text does indeed contain mathematical elements. As maths require special environments, there are naturally the appropriate environment names you can use in the standard way. The equation* and displaymath environments are functionally equivalent.

GuIT - Gruppo utilizzatori Italiani di TeX e LaTeX. Creazione di un documento Sia file.tex un file sorgente, pronto per essere compilato da LaTeX, contenente quindi le seguenti istruzioni (oltre il testo): \documentclass[a4paper]{article} \begin{document} Questo l'ho scritto in \LaTeX \end{document} Dove: \documentclass[a4paper]{article} specifica il tipo di documento (article) ed il foglio su cui verrà stampato (a4paper); \begin{document} e \end{document} delimitano il corpo del testo. Si osservi che tutti i passaggi che illustreremo per arrivare dal file sorgente al risultato finale sono comandi eseguiti dal prompt di DOS: conseguentemente è assunto che il percorso dove si trovano tutti gli eseguibili (cioè tutti i file .exe necessari alle compilazioni, quali latex.exe, yap.exe, etc.) sia specificato nel file c:\autoexec.bat.
