LaTeX Template for Presentations ================================ This package serves as a template for presentations in the [Corporate Design of KIT](https://kit-cd.sts.kit.edu/praesentationen.php) (version from February 2025). It is modified from the template developed by the research group [DSiS](https://dsis.kastel.kit.edu) at the KIT Faculty of Computer Science and is based on [LaTeX Beamer](https://ctan.org/pkg/beamer). See https://sdq.kastel.kit.edu/wiki/Dokumentvorlagen Modified by: [Dr.-Ing. Hedongliang Liu] Compile the `introduction.tex` to see an example. # Usage ## `Options` for the "CELbeamer" document class ------------------------------------------ The font size in the footer is set larger by default than in the PowerPoint template. This can be enforced to match the original specification using the `smallfoot` option. | Footer font size | Option | | --------------------- | -------------------- | | slightly larger (12pt) | `bigfoot` (default) | | KIT specification (11pt) | `smallfoot` | German and English are available as languages. The language selection automatically sets the appropriate formats (e.g., quotation marks, date). | Language | Option | | --------- | --------------- | | German | `de` | | English | `en` (default) | Slide titles are set in Helvetica. If you want Franklin Gothic for everything, you can define this. | Title font | Option | | ----------------- | --------------------- | | Franklin Gothic | `franklin` | | Helvetica | `helvet` (default) | ### Other options - The navigation bar in the footer can be enabled using the `navbaron` option. - With the `kitgrid` option, the grid of the slides can be displayed. - The `handout` option turns off the animations. Multiple slides for the same frame will be shown on one slide, or according to the commands in the animation instructions. E.g., `\only<2|handout:0>{This is not shown in handout mode.}`, `\item<1-|handout:2>{This shows only on the second slide of the frame in the handout mode.}` - The `spaceforface` option leaves extra space on the right-hand-side of the frame to put presenter's video. The width of the space can be adjusted by changing the in \setlength{\spaceforface}{} in `CELbeamer.cls`. - The `overviewatsection` option displays the table of contents at each section. Only subsections of the current section is shown. - The `showsubsectionsatfirstoverview` option shows all the subsections at the first overview. This requires `overviewatsection` option. Example: `\documentclass[de, navbaron, kitgrid, handout, overviewatsection]{CELbeamer}` ## Title Slide Setup: `\begin{frame}[title white vertical, picture=images/...., fundings=]` The image on the title slide can be set with the `picture=` option. For vertical layouts, the image fits the height; for horizontal layouts, it fits the width. Additionally, for horizontal layouts, you can choose the color of the KIT logo. | KIT logo color | Frame Option | | -------------- | ------------------------ | | colored | `kitlogo=rgb` | | white | `kitlogo=white` | | black | `kitlogo=black` | Example: `\begin{frame}[title white horizontal, picture=images/palladio_bauplan, kitlogo=black]` ## Special Slides ### Table of content For tables of contents, you can specify the option `tableofcontents=`, where `color` can be either `blue` or `green`. The table of contents will then be shown on a fully colored slide. ### Image slides There are also special layouts for divider slides with large images. You can select them using frame options. | Vertical image share: | Frame Option | | --------------------- | ------------------------------ | | 33% | `picture 33 vertical` | | 50% | `picture 50 vertical` | | 66% | `picture 66 vertical` | | arbitrary | `picture vertical=`| The image is set with the option `picture=`, where `path` must be given relative to the main document. Logo and Name of Department/KIT Faculty/Institute ------------------------------------------------- The logo at the bottom right of the title slide can be set with the following command: `\grouplogo{mylogo}` (without file extension) To use your own logo, place the file (e.g., `mylogo.pdf`) in the `logos/` directory and adjust the command. If no logo should be included, use `\grouplogo{}`. The group name can be set with the following command: `\groupname{Communication Engineering Lab}` The group name appears in the footer at the bottom right. Long names will be wrapped into two lines. If the group name is left empty (`\groupname{}`), the full width of the footer will be used for author names and title. The default width of the group name is 89 mm. It can be changed with `\groupnamewidth{120mm}` which also adjusts the width of the author and title text field accordingly. Line breaks are possible with `\\`. Instead of two-line footers, the `smallfoot` option may be preferable.
