This is a LaTeX template created according to the guidelines for TUM informatics theses in SS 2013. Always check the current formatting guidelines before you hand in. See build/main.pdf for an example PDF created with this template.

Note: Because of copyright considerations, TUM logos are not included in this template and have to be downloaded separately (see instructions below).

Comments & contributions welcome!

Quickstart

Download and extract the template. If you prefer to use Git, just clone/fork the repository.
Download the TUM logos in PDF format:
- Log in to MyTUM.
- Download the TUM logo from here and save it to logos/tum.pdf.
- Download your faculty's logo from here and save it to logos/faculty.pdf.
- Some logos might not be cropped; execute the crop-logos script to do that for you. The script requires the pdfcrop tool (included in TeX Live/MiKTeX), so make sure your PATH environment variable is set accordingly.
Configure your latex editor to use pdflatex, biber for bibliography, and makeglossaries for glossary generation. Set main.tex as the master document. Alternatively, you can use the provided makefile to create a PDF in the build directory (requires latexmk).
Look for TODO comments in the provided files. Start at main.tex.

For additional hints, have a look at the wiki. If you still have problems, feel free to create an issue.
