LaTeX eBook Templates
Dear Like-Minded Fellows,
Have any of you an interest in contributing to a collection of LaTeX eBook Templates?
I'm thinking of LaTeX source files that are customized for what is a coherent and--to the best of the template maker's abilities--typographically sound whole, that people could readily plug content into.
If there is interest, I'll setup a member-editable wiki for this tonight with usernames/passwords for anybody interested (to avoid having to monitor for vandalism and spam), and add the first template I have to contribute.
If anybody already knows of a website like this, please do post about it here. If a LaTeX template site already exists that has (or is amenable to) a focus on eBooks, I'll save myself the (admittedly minimal) trouble of putting up the wiki.
Just to further clarify what I mean, I would love to see on the eventual template list...
- several LaTeX templates that aim for simple but pleasant aesthetics and readability with eBook (display size and resolution) limitations in mind
- a LaTeX template that supports marginal notes (even if only for 8"+ devices)
- several (Xe)LaTeX templates for CJK eBooks, with links to the fonts used
- LaTeX templates that try to be typography-historically sensible, from font selection to chapter/page styles, to table of contents style
- LaTeX templates with specific types of complex layout structures in mind (e.g.: a layout specifically tailored for the Bible and similar books, a layout tailored for dictionaries and encyclopedias, a layout tailored for bilingual texts)
- et cetera
- Ahi
