|

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
There are two versions of the template -- Czech (directory "cs")
|
||||
and English ("en").
|
||||
|
||||
Requirements on formatting of bachelor theses are given by Dean's directives
|
||||
4/2019, 1/2015, and 7/2016, and by the Rector's directive 72/2017. Other
|
||||
guidelines can be found in the example.pdf file. This LaTeX template follows
|
||||
the directives; it also tries to emphasize important points in comments. Still,
|
||||
we advise you to read the complete rules.
|
||||
|
||||
If you are not familiar with LaTeX yet, you can find numerous tutorials on
|
||||
the Web. One example we like is http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/LaTeX.
|
||||
|
||||
Basic typographical settings can be found in thesis.tex, which also refers
|
||||
to all other files containing individual chapters. Please read the main file
|
||||
carefully and fill in the thesis name, author, and other identifiers. You also
|
||||
need to update the meta-data file thesis.xmpdata.
|
||||
|
||||
The Czech version contains several example chapters with hints on typesetting
|
||||
of common expressions. There are not available in the English version yet,
|
||||
sorry.
|
||||
|
||||
The electronic version of your thesis must be submitted to SIS. It must
|
||||
conform to the PDF/A-1a or -2u standard. This template produces PDF/A-2u
|
||||
using the pdfx LaTeX package (https://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/pdfx).
|
||||
Please note that many installations of TeX have this package either obsolete
|
||||
or broken. So we advise to download the current version of the package and
|
||||
unpack it to tex/pdfx/.
|
||||
|
||||
Our FAQ on producing PDF/A is currently available in Czech only, but if you
|
||||
encounter any problems, please ask Martin Mareš for advice.
|
||||
|
||||
If you are using Windows, beware that MikTeX contains old versions of some
|
||||
(mostly mathematical) fonts, which leads to improper PDF/A output. We have
|
||||
much better experience with the TeXlive distribution.
|
||||
|
||||
If you are using a UNIX system, you might want to use our example Makefile --
|
||||
just run "make" to process all files by TeX.
|
||||
|
||||
You can also run TeX manually. In this case, you should use pdfTeX and also
|
||||
BibTeX for generating bibliography. (The usual order is: pdflatex, bibtex,
|
||||
and then pdflatex twice to get cross-references right. Alternatively, you
|
||||
can use latexmk.)
|
||||
|
||||
The current development version of this template and other hints on writing
|
||||
theses can be found at http://mj.ucw.cz/vyuka/bc/.
