fancyhandout
A LaTeX class for producing nice-looking handouts
Many students conducting a presentation are asked to provide a handout containing the essential information of their report. However, LaTeX has never been designed for typesetting such documents mostly consisting out of bullet points.
fancyhandout
breaks up with some of LaTeX's principles and redefines basic LaTeX commands with the aim of producing well-designed and clear structured handouts: A textsf{sans-serif} font is used by default, sections are not numbered and highlighted by underlining them, head- and footline display document information and for avoiding too large whitespace around the text, the margin sizes are adjusted to a proper value.
All together, fancyhandout
provides a way of typesetting documents not exclusively consisting of running text in a beautiful way.
Dependencies
fancyhandout
depends on these other LaTeX packages: csquotes
, enumitem
, etoolbox
, fancyhdr
, geometry
and xcolor
