pdf output from LaTeX, they can see what complex math or tables should look like in the PDF. It may still look a little wonky, but it will be totally usable for Word track-changes edits from your coauthors. (I recommend installing Pandoc via Homebrew on macOS.) The pandoc-converted version will take care of simple math, tables, figures, figure references, and citations. When a paper is nearing the point where it will be shared with coauthors for their input, I use Pandoc to create a. CoauthorsĮven though I think LaTeX is superior to word processors like Word for composing journal articles, the utility of Track Changes is undeniable, especially when working with coauthors. Commit the new figure versions to your Git repo just like you commit text changes.

As you update figures (changing units, adding subplots, or whatever) copy the new version into you paper's figures/ folder. As you start referencing figures in your paper, copy them into a figures/ folder within your paper folder and include in your figure code block. Have a working figures folder that is separate from your paper figure folder. Figuresįor figures, use PDF as much as possible. Each time I add a new reference in Mendeley, I re-export the. Reference this file from your main document. bib file and save in your manuscript directory. Then export just that folder's citations to a. I suggest creating a folder within Mendeley for your paper, and drag publications used for that paper into this folder.

I use Mendeley to take care of my bibliography.

To avoid this, install Git LFS ( git lfs install), and in your repository, add figures to LFS using something like: git lfs track 'figures/cool_figure.pdf' Small changes in a big PNG figure, for example, can lead to a massive increase in the size of the repo. In newer projects, I have been using Git LFS to store figures. Put everything in the repo, including things like review comments, figures, and comments from coauthors. I generally tag releases for different milestones, like initial submission to a journal, resubmission after reviewer comments, and so on. This way Git will provide readable diffs between paper versions. When using Git in this fashion I recommend using one sentence per line, and two newlines between paragraphs.

This helps to keep a full record of changes to your paper. At the end of each day-sometimes more often-I make sure to commit my changes to the repo and push to the remote. GitĪnything that approaches the length of a paper gets its own Git repository and accompanying Git remote. This way, fewer windows clutter up your workspace: if you have multiple documents open, the source and preview windows won't get mixed up. Additionally, in TeXShop Preferences, enable Use One Window in Preview -> Opening Source and Preview. I generally keep program defaults, although one big recommendation is to use Single Window Mode: do this by clicking Window -> Use One Window. Using Terminal.app: Go to the MacTeX or TeX Live local directory.I write a fair amount, primarily in the form of journal articles or other scientific writing output.įor anything more than the most minimal documents I use LaTeX. Many people try to solve this by copying and pasting Sweave.sty into every document directory, but I’m sharing a better way below. While Sweave.sty is a LaTeX package, it doesn’t live with the rest of the LaTeX packages because it’s installed using R. One common complaint that you’ll get after Sweaving a file is Sweave.sty not found!. However, Sweave doesn’t always work correctly. Needless to say, the marriage of statistics with documents makes writing up APA-style reports a bit easier, especially with Brian Beitzel’s amazing apa6 class for LaTeX. This enables accurate, shareable analyses as well as high-resolution graphs that are publication quality. Sweave is an R function that converts R code to LaTeX, a document typesetting language. To get around this, many of us use Sweave, which allows us to embed R code in LaTeX files. To constantly copy and paste results from the R Console. When you’re writing up reports using statistics from R, it can be tiresome
