In this section, we will introduce what a document class is.
A document class can be regarded as a pre-designed LaTeX macro package used for typesetting a specific format of document.
It mainly provides the overall structure of the document (such as page structure like \section), basic settings (font, font size, paragraph spacing, etc. in different parts), and specific formatting (numbering format, etc.).
The important optional settings for standard document class formats are as follows:
| Function | Option | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Paper size | a4paper | |
| Paper orientation | landscape | Landscape paper |
| Column layout | onecolumn | Single column |
| twocolumn | ||
| Draft setting | draft | Draft |
Important options for the ctex package and its document class:
| Function | Option | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Typesetting | indent | Indent the first line after the title |
| noindent | Do not indent the first line | |
| Package compatibility | fancyhdr | Call the package and make it compatible |
| hyperref | Call the package and make it compatible |
