Welcome to the NOVAthesis wiki!

This wiki is open to anyone willing to contribute with suggestions and recommendations to other users of the novathesis package. Please don't be shy and edit at your free will!

Where to go?

• Getting Started, if you are a newcomer and you think LaTeX is a type of rubber, spelled in a funny way. 😄
• Installing LaTeX in your computer.
• Learning LaTeX
• Troubleshoot, if you are dealing with an annoying error.
• FAQ, if you have some doubts about this project haunting you (or if you just want to learn a little bit more about it)!
• Tips & Tricks, answering questions of type “How dow I do X?” that are not in the FAQ.
• Recommendations for specific Universities/Schools
• Recommendations for specific Operating Systems
• Checklist for delivering the final document
• Recommendations for specific Research Areas
• Main changes in the NOVAthesis template latest version (v6.x).
• Upgrading the NOVAthesis template from v4.x or v5.x to v6.x.

Warning

Please notice that the NOVAthesis template uses biber (and not bibtex) as the backend bibliography processor.

• If you use latexmk in the terminal, it will just work.
• If you compile your LaTeX source within a Text Editor (e.g., TexStudio, TextMaker, etc) you must open the Editor Preferences and change something somewhere (depends on the Editor) to use biber instead of bibtex.
