Figure 3.15: TeXnicCenter Tip of the Day Window You can close this window, and then, if this is the ﬁrst time you are using TeXnicCenter you will have to use the conﬁguration wizard to set up TeXnicCenter correctly. I would recommend that you choose the default settings. (Select Next, Next and then Finish.) Now you are ready to use TeXnicCenter. It should look like Figure 3.19. To start a new pro ject select File → New Project. This will open the window shown in Figure 3.20. Enter a name for your pro ject, and specify the directory where you want to save your work. For example, I shall call my pro ject “example” and I want to save it in c:\My Documents\Nicky\example (see Figure 3.21.) Select the “Empty Pro ject” icon, and click on “Okay”. You should now see something like Figure 3.22. You can now start typing the source code (we’ll cover this later). See Figure 3.23. Save it by either clicking on the save icon or select File → Save Now select what type of output you want (DVI, PDF or PostScript) see Figure 3.24. If this box is blank, then it’s possible that you didn’t complete all the steps in the conﬁguration wizard described above. Now click on the build output icon or select Build → Build Output. The transcript will be written in the window at the bottom (see Figure 3.25) This tran5 currently...

Try modifying your code so that it has cross-references. Again, changes made from the previous document are illustrated like this:

Exercise 12 (Page Styles and Page Numb ering)
Try editing your document so that the page numbering is lowercase Roman for the table of contents but Arabic for the main matter. You can try changing the page style as well, but since the chapters are less than a page each, you won’t see any eﬀect until we make our chapters a bit bigger.

Output Input

Figure 7.1: Some shapes Just as we were able to generate a table of contents using ableofcontents, we can also generate a list of ﬁgures using the command \listoffigures
A As before you will need to L TEX your document twice to get the list of ﬁgures up-to-date. Deﬁnition

Exercise 16 (Creating Figures)
If you did Exercise 14, you should have a document with the image shapes.ps (or shapes.pdf) in it. You now need to put this image into a figure environment. Remember to centre the image, and give the ﬁgure a caption. Next, try labelling the ﬁgure and referencing it in the text. You could also put in a list of ﬁgures after the table of contents. (You can download or view an example.)

Coming up next is a description of the subfigure package. If you’re struggling a bit you can skip this bit and move on to Section 7.2 on page 74...
