University of Toronto thesis class for LaTeX

ut-thesis LaTeX class

The ut-thesis document class for LaTeX implements the formatting requirements of the University of Toronto School of Graduate Studies (SGS), as of Fall 2020.

Contents

Within this repo:

• ut-thesis/: source code to generate ut-thesis.cls class file & ut-thesis.pdf documentation
• test/: some example usage of the class, including:
  • mwe: a minimal working example
  • full: a more realistic example
  • frame: illustration of the margins using showframe
  • margin-*: testing the margin options
• makefile: compile stuff
• ctan/: output for uploading to CTAN

Installation

There are two main options to start using the class:

1. installing: The ut-thesis class is available under the major LaTeX distributions (Linux: TeX Live, macOS: MacTeX, Windows: MiKTeX). Installation steps will depend on the distribution; some helpful information is here. Within TeX Live, ut-thesis is part of the publishers bundle, so it should be available on Overleaf.
2. local file: Place the file ut-thesis.cls in your project directory. The class will only be available in this directory. This works if you don't have write access in the LaTeX distribution, or if you want to use an updated version of the class. The documentation is available on GitHub.

Examples

There is some example code on GitHub.

Issues & Requests

... are welcome! Please file them here on GitHub.

If you have your thesis rejected by SGS / ProQuest due to formatting, please help us track the (inconsistent) reasons here, to see if any changes are actually needed in ut-thesis.

Versions

If there are any differences between the version here on GitHub vs the versions on CTAN or your LaTeX distribution, the GitHub version is likely more up-to-date.
