LaTeX Template for Presentations
This package serves as a template for presentations in the Corporate Design of KIT (version from February 2025).
It is modified from the template developed by the research group DSiS at the KIT Faculty of Computer Science and is based on LaTeX Beamer. See https://sdq.kastel.kit.edu/wiki/Dokumentvorlagen

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) |
The navigation bar in the footer can be disabled using the navbaroff option.
With the kitgrid option, the grid of the slides can be displayed.
Example: \documentclass[de,smallfoot, navbaroff]{CELbeamer}
Title Slide
There are several layouts for the title slide. You can select them using frame options:
| Layout | Frame Option |
|---|---|
| green/white vertical | title white vertical |
| green/blue vertical | title white vertical |
| white horizontal | title white horizontal |
| green horizontal | title green horizontal |
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
For tables of contents, you can specify the option tableofcontents=<color>, where color can be either blue or green. The table of contents will then be shown on a fully colored slide.
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=<value in %> |
The image is set with the option picture=<path>, where path must be given relative to the main document.
Additionally, you can choose the color of the KIT logo in the footer, as it appears above the image.
| KIT logo color | Frame Option |
|---|---|
| colored | kitlogo=rgb |
| white | kitlogo=white |
| black | kitlogo=black |
Example: \begin{frame}[picture 66 vertical,picture=images/palladio_bauplan,kitlogo=black]{Slide with image}
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{Software Design and Quality}
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.
