uni-stuttgart-beamer-template
This is an unofficial LATEX template for Beamer presentations by and for members of the University of Stuttgart, Germany, following the new corporate design the university has given itself in 2016.
The template is private work by members of the University of Stuttgart.
It is not endorsed by the University of Stuttgart or any of its
institutions, institutes, or departments.
The template is made available to the public as we think it might
be useful for other people.
Neither the authors nor the University of Stuttgart provide support
for the template going beyond this README.
The license for the template is located in LICENSE.
If you happen to improve the template, it would be nice if you merged back your work using pull requests.
Usage
The directory tex contains LATEX source code
and resulting PDFs, while gfx contains graphics.
The main component of the template is the new Beamer theme "Stuttgart",
located in tex/beamerthemeStuttgart.sty.
Also included is an example presentation in
tex/talk.tex and tex/slides.tex.
See how it looks by downloading the PDFs in the latest
release on GitHub.
SCons
The preferred way to compile the example presentation is using SCons. SCons is a build system tool (equivalent to CMake, Autotools, etc.), which can also be used to build LATEX documents.
On Ubuntu, install SCons via
sudo apt install scons
Then, download and extract this repository to a folder. Change to this folder and execute
scons
and you're done.
This not only compiles the presentation using the right amount of
LATEX calls (very much similar to latexmk),
but generates also a separate handout in tex/handout.pdf,
which contains the slides in Beamer's handout mode
(e.g., ignoring pause commands) compressed with 4 pages per sheet.
You can clean up all generated files using
scons -c
PDFLATEX
Of course, you can also compile the example presentation in the traditional way using
cd tex
pdflatex talk.tex
