LaTeX report layout for university

This is a layout for a university report containing the basic building blocks I usually use in LaTeX documents. If you want to use this layout, there are some files you have to change.

The layout is currently in German and i don't itend to change it for now. Maybe I will change it later if anyone other than me wants to use it.

Files to modify

1. uni_vars.tex: Here are some variables defined which are used in the document as placeholders (title, author, date, etc.)
2. uni_footer.tex: Contains the footer of the document. If you want to include a link to your university just change the example
3. uni_main.tex: Here you can add your chapters, sections, etc via includes.
4. uni_preamble.tex: add additional packages or remove some you don't need.

Necessary programs

To build the document I added a Makefile which calls pdflatex. You should have a distribution of LaTeX and also make installed to make use of the Makefile. I use MiKTeX for pdflatex and GnuWin32 for make on my Windows machine.

Build the document

Just navigate to the root folder of this layout and run:

make

The generated document will be saved in ./output/uni_main.pdf.
