Problems with citations

Recently I got problem sorting out my book chapter's citation. Using IEEE style, the number was not sorted in order from 1,2... so on, instead jumping from 31..32 and scrambled all other the place. I rarely write on Microsoft Windows, but since the writing need to be done fast (as well as the corrections) so I installed EndNote X3 from UTM software repository.  As easy as pie, I think corrected those things out - FAST.  However I still love writing in LaTeX. As for now. Wrote 3 papers using LaTeX and all of them accepted.  :)

Research and wordprocessing

Ever since I started my PhD study, I stick to LaTeX for most of my works - progress slides, conference papers and even for a "kenduri" event for my daughter's aqiqah - I created invitation memos with LaTeX. LaTeX needs some perseverance for you to learn . For me I started typed LaTeX files with VI and later compiled the document with pdflatex command. Later, I met Kile, a KDE based LaTeX editor. It provided GUI based with autocompletion and spell check function, which is cool to assist you writing up your work - conference paper or thesis. Most of my friends comfortable with MS Word and EndNote.. which is okay. But some conference organizer literally require you to send them paper written in LaTeX (or in another way around). In this case you might need to find a friend who are familiar which such writing environment.

LaTeX beamer for foss.my 2009 I spent my precious nites doing these stuffs. Everything went well except I didn't compiled my *.tex twice so that my Tikz arrows drawn perfectly. Next 6th Nov I'll be going to present another talk.. I hope I can avoid such problem again. Tex Source My Presentation Slides [HTML] My Slides [PDF, 70 slides since I did some overlays] You can refer my .tex file and do whatever changes that you want... but I'll be happy if you tell me where will you present your talk using my so called *masterpiece* :D By the way, I converted those Beamer PDFs using external command, that is gs I tweak some recommendations here So, what I did was; gs -dNOPAUSE -g1024x768 -r205 -sDEVICE=pngalpha -sOutputFile=./temp/slide_%02d.png -dBATCH beamer-foss-my-09.pdf cd temp/new/ //02d since this will correctly numbers your slides sequence from 00,01,10,11.. otherwise it will assume 1,11,10 is within the same order(as you can see, in the link that I gave before it doesn...

Latex #2 : ArabTeX Salam, Pengembaraan LateX berterusan dengan penggunaan pakej ArabTex - diinspirasikan penggunaannya oleh bro Bahathir Selepas bermain-main dengan baris arahan LateX sebenarnya kita boleh langkau penggunaan default arahan latex yang memerlukan pengubahan DVI ke PDF secara manual (latex && dvipdf ). Sebaliknya cukup dengan penggunaan pdflatex Baik, untuk penggunaan ArabTex, kita perlu buat seperti berikut: Andaikan nama fail ini "jawi.text" \documentclass{article} \usepackage{arabtex} \begin{document} \setmalay \novocalize Arab\TeX\ \end{document} Jika anda lihat snippet di atas, anda perasan penggunaan aksara "caret" .. ini untuk memberikan tanda "hamzah" pada huruf "alif", disebabkan kita mahu fonetik alif ini berbunyi "a" seperti di dalam "ayam" Untuk jAwI pula, A dan I capital digunakan untuk memaksa ArabTex meletakkan "alif" di tengah-tengah perkataan dan "ya" di akhir perkata...

LateX#1 Joey pointed me out on using LateX to solve cross referencing problem... I found this problem really irritating when I have to improve my literature survey.. Here goes my LateX journey.. I did install this software years back but I never use it since the size is HUGE and I do not have any purpose to use it. Penggunaan Latex amat popular di kalangan kawan-kawan yang giat menyiapkan tesis dan kertas persidangan mereka. Saya baru je nak guna latex ni so ada beberapa opsyen 1- Install Lyx, MikeTex dan sokongan kamus Aspell (ada BM, lama dulu MIMOS buat) 2- Install Latex guna cygwin Saya menghadapi masalah guna GUI Latex (Lyx) pada 1) pada mulanya ... so pergi kepada opsyen baris arahan pada Cygwin. Kadang-kadang installer yang datang dengan bulk pada Lyx memerlukan anda memasang pakej satu persatu $ latex.exe -v pdfeTeX 3.141592-1.21a-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.4) kpathsea version 3.5.4 Copyright (C) 1997-2004 Peter Breitenlohner (eTeX)/Han The Thanh (pdfTeX).
