Latex Stuff

Appendix

When the appendix should start, insert \appendix. This will reset the section/chapter counter and use A, B, C, .. as section/chapter number. Do NOT just make a \section{Appendix}. For extra stuff, see the appendix package.

Page Numbering/Style

Usually page numbering starts with roman numbers and changes to arabic numbers after the TOC (and it resets). Similarly, the page style sometimes change.

TOOD: write how to do it properly

Source Code

Almost always, do NOT include source code as pictures.

Use the listings package, maybe with a custom defined language if it does not know it already.

Dashes and Quotation Marks

click (using just ' and " is not correct)

Abbreviations and Spaces

If a . (dot) is not the end of a sentence, the following space must be escaped. Otherwise the space is an end-of-sentence space, which might be larger than a normal inter-word space.

Some spaces should be non-breaking, i.e. a line break should not occur at the space. E.g., the space in "page \ref{" or "Figure \ref{". Use ~ to make a non-breaking space: "page~\ref{".
