UA beamer theme

This is a LaTeX beamer theme for the University of Antwerp. It is designed to match the official UA templates for Microsoft PowerPoint.

Installation

Retrieve ua-beamer via GitHub and place it in a directory where LaTeX can find it. For user installations on Unix, this is typically ~/texmf. Running texhash may be required.

You can check the integrity of your installation with

$ kpsewhich beamerfontthemeUniversiteitAntwerpen.sty
/home/username/texmf/tex/latex/ua-beamer/theme/beamerfontthemeUniversiteitAntwerpen.sty

Usage

Using the theme is as simple as invoking beamer's \usetheme:

\documentclass[compress]{beamer}

\usetheme[light,darktitle,framenumber,totalframenumber]{UniversiteitAntwerpen}

\usepackage{lipsum}

\title{Some slides with a UA beamer theme}
\subtitle{This is a dummy subtitle}

\author{Nico~Schl\"omer}

\begin{document}

\maketitle

\begin{frame}
\frametitle{A first test frame}
Some dummy text.
\end{frame}

\end{document}

See here for a more verbose example.

Note that the official font of Universiteit Antwerpen is Underware's Auto 1. If you have access to it, you can include it by adding

% Fonts. Use Auto 1, the official UA font.
\usepackage{fontspec,microtype}
\usepackage{unicode-math}
\defaultfontfeatures{Ligatures=TeX, Scale=MatchLowercase, Numbers=Lining}
\setmainfont{auto1}
\setsansfont{auto1}
\setmathfont{XITS Math} % for math symbols, can be any other OpenType math font
\setmathfont[range=\mathup]  {auto1}
\setmathfont[range=\mathbfup]{auto1 Bold}
\setmathfont[range=\mathbfit]{auto1 Bold Italic}
\setmathfont[range=\mathit]  {auto1 Italic}

to the document preamble.

All options are documented as part of the manual. To compile,

cd doc/manual && make
