Changes to the layout
Please note that you can make many changes to the general
layout. We will not get into that because we could easily spend
the next two hours on it.
In Windows, you can view the dvi file with the program yap,
which is distributed with the MikTex package.
Using Bibtex
cv
Bibtex turns .bib in .bbl file

HTML Basic Definitions
• HTML
– HyperText Markup Language.
• HTML Document
– A document written in HyperText Markup
Language.
• HTTP
– The abbreviation for Hypertext Transfer
Protocol, HTTP is used to link and transfer
hypertext documents.
Tags
• HTML is a mark up language like LaTeX.
Tags are being used to enter and leave a
new environment:
<tag> ... </tag>
• In LaTex one would either use the
\begin{tag} …. \end{tag}
coding or its abbreviated version (e.g., {\bf
blaba} for boldface font).
Examples for Tags
<HTML> = Begin of an HTML Document
<HEAD> = Begin of non-visible header
Banner for title bar
<TITLE>Document Title</TITLE>
</HEAD> =close head
<BODY> =start body, this text will be displayed
</BODY> =end body
</HTML> =end of the HTML document
Comments
Comments are set in HTML like this
<!– This is a comment. -->
Recall, in LaTex we had the ‘%’ sign instead.
Headings
most import, largest
<H1>Heading 1</H1>
<H2>Heading 2</H2>
<H3>Heading 3</H3>
<H4>Heading 4</H4>
<H5>Heading 5</H5>
<H6>Heading 6</H6>
least important, smallest
This equivalent to the \chapter and \section headings in LaTex
Paragraphs
<P Paragraph </P>
For the line break, you would use.
Linebreak <\br> … a rare case with only one
tag!
While for the block quotation one would
write:
<blockquote> ..quotation... </blockquote>

– good for photos with many colors
• GIF (Graphics Interchange Format)
– Lossless compression
– Only 256 colors
– Allows dynamic graphs->
