![]() ![]() Version 3.x was modified, on request of several users, in order to avoid the toptesi.cls class file, but to allow the other files, from toptesi.sty on, to be used with any standard or custom class. ![]() The general scheme may be represented by the flow diagram in figure 1. Of several useful commands actually this module could be used without reference to the TOPtesi bundle, being suitable as an extension to any class. The latter file was not monolithic any more it was split in three parts: toptesi.sty contained most settings and the macros to be used in the body of the document topfront.sty provided the commands for entering all the necessary and optional data for the frontispiece (or title page) and actually typeset the title page in different styles topcoman.sty contained the definitionsįigure 1: Quasi original TOPtesi bundle flow diagramįigure 2: Advanced TOPtesi bundle flow diagram With version 2.x, suitable for LATEX 2, the bundle was modified in order to have a class of its own, toptesi.cls, which provided to collecting the necessary options and to pass them to the report class it loaded the toptesi.sty just afterwords. sty files are not any more used to change the style of the document. sty extension is still used today for backwards compatibility, but. At that time there was only LATEX 209 and extension packages were called "style files" the. sty file to be used with the report class. ![]() The TOPtesi bundle at its very beginning in the early nineties was just one. ![]() This bundle is distributed under the LATEX Project Public Licence (LPPL) which is appended to the Italian documentation file toptesi-it.pdf included in this bundle personal customisation of parts of this bundle are discouraged but are permitted only in conformance with the LPPL. The "normal" user should not spend his/her time to read unnecessary information. The rest is just the code and its documentation it is useful mostly for me, as the author, and to other programmers and/or curious users. The user should not be scared by the number of pages of this documentation s/he should read part of the first 31 pages, those that concern his/her thesis. With version 6.xx, the bundle has been modularised in a (hopefully) more efficient way, although it is backwards compatible, so that version 5.xx functionalities are still available.Ī totally new module is the one that allows to typeset the Italian high school "tesina", a document that is examined by the graduation exam committee at the end of secondary studies. Another minor X LATEX feature is that it cannot fully exploit the typesetting facilities of the microtype package, but the wide choice of OpenType font properties replaces almost completely such missing microtype features. The most important feature with X LATEX is that the option pdfa cannot be used any more this is due to the fact that the typesetting engine X TEX does not directly produce any pdf output but a modified, extended DVI one, that is immediately converted into a pdf file through xdvipdfmx, a special version of the conversion program. Up to now the few conflicts that have been spotted have been solved with suitable corrections or additions. This version is compliant with the X LATEX and the LuaLATEX programs. This ambition can't be fulfilled, though, because of the complexity of the title page (and possibly of the copyright page) requirements. So as to comply also with the host university rules therefore this set of files has the ambition to be suited for typesetting theses in any university in the world. since the Erasmus student mobility is very extended and many Italian students participate in the so called double degree programs, their theses, or whatever they are called in other countries, may be typeset This file describes the TOPtesi bundle it consists of a set of files designed to typeset a university final report that in Italian is generally called "tesi" it was originally developed at the Technical University of Turin (Politecnico di Torino) but it was adapted for typesetting theses in any Italian university.
