A simple LaTeX template for CUHK thesis based on CUHK format guide.

• Support English and Chinese fonts for Linux, MacOS, Windows, and other platforms.
• Show titles of chapters (odd pages) and sections (even pages) in fancyhead.
• Support glossaries and nomenclature with automatic compiler latexmk.
• Support hyperlinks (url) and cross-reference (backref) for bibliographies.
• Fast compiling.

1. Download or clone this repository.
2. Install major TeX distributions with XeLaTeX or use Overleaf (recommended).

Edit the corresponding .tex, .bib files with your favorite editor and compile thesis.tex with latexmk command. Then you will get the demo.

For fast compiling, set draftmode=1 in .latexmkrc, this will skip front-matters and Chinese fonts. For final compiling, convert to draftmode=0 (default).

To clean up auxiliary files, run latexmk -c.

• The fontsets are automatically selected in settings/fonts.tex for Windows, MacOS, Linux, and other systems.
• You can change the formats and styles of the thesis by adjusting the settings in settings/settings.tex, e.g., change backref to false.
• The commands for fast-typing are stored in settings/usrcmds.tex. Users can define their own commands in this file.
• Usually we don't have to modify settings/cmds.tex since it only contains commands for outputting standard pages.
