How can I explain the meaning of LaTeX to my grandma? Just because LaTeX was designed for technical documents doesn't mean that's all its good for. I laid out a comic book in LaTeX. (Because scripting makes things easier.) |

Change background colour for entire document Somewhat off topic, but the best way to change the background color of an entire document is to print it on colored paper. :) |

How can I introduce a non-technical person to LaTeX? +1 here as well. I used LyX to write my various academic papers back when I was still an academic and it certainly saved me a lot of grief. |

The effect of the anonymous letter Man, that kerning is TERRIBLE. |

How to replace chapter boilerplate with full-page image? Okay, good to know. I guess I should have just tried it straight away. Sorry to be such a bother. |

How to replace chapter boilerplate with full-page image? So, I finally tried switching over to this method (since it seems a bit cleaner), but I couldn't figure out how to use \AddToShipoutPicture or \includegraphics or whatever instead of \includepdf (since my images are in .png format, not .pdf). |

How to replace chapter boilerplate with full-page image? Oh, so it is, thanks. Sorry about that. I think I just got overwhelmed by the verbosity of the first two approaches that I must have overlooked the third. |

How to replace chapter boilerplate with full-page image? @egreg Yeah, the last \picturechapter macro is pretty decent. +1 for that. When I commented on this answer only the first example code was here. I definitely like \picturechapter a lot better than the other ones. |

How to replace chapter boilerplate with full-page image? That certainly seems to be the proper TeX-y way to do it: overwrought, overly complicated, and requires a Makefile to update things correctly. ;) |

How to replace chapter boilerplate with full-page image? For now just doing \def\chapterimage{chapter-1.png} \chapter{Chapter Title} seems to work. Thanks! |

How to replace chapter boilerplate with full-page image? Thanks! How do I define \chapterimage? Just doing \chapter[chapterimage=foo.png]{ChapterTitle} didn't work (I got a macro error, "Undefined control sequence \chapterimage"). Also I'm including my individual chapters in separate .tex files, if that makes a difference. |
