So I have created the following:
\documentclass[17pt]{extarticle}
\usepackage{extsizes}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\usepackage{fancyhdr}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\usepackage{tikz}
% To set the font and formatting:
\setmainfont{[lcars.ttf]} %To load the font named lcars
%\setmainfont[AutoFakeBold=1.5, AutoFakeSlant=0.4]{lcars.ttf} % To set bold or italics if I wanted to.
% LCARS Colours begin:
% Sources for colours:
% http://lcarsmania.com/designguide/Okudagrams_Color.png
% http://www.lcarscom.net/lcars_colors.gif
\definecolor{LCARSBG}{HTML}{000000} % Pure black
\definecolor{LCARSTCMain}{HTML}{FF9900} %Dark yellow
\definecolor{LCARSTC1}{HTML}{CC99CC} % Light purple
\definecolor{LCARSTC2}{HTML}{9999CC} % Light blue
\definecolor{LCARSTC3}{HTML}{CC6666} % Light red
\definecolor{LCARSTC4}{HTML}{FFCC99} % Light peach
\definecolor{LCARSTC5}{HTML}{9999FF} % Light blue, a different variant
\definecolor{LCARSTC6}{HTML}{FF9966} % Light orange
\definecolor{LCARSTC7}{HTML}{CC6699} % Pink
\definecolor{LCARSTC8}{HTML}{F5173C} % Light red
% LCARS Colours end.
% To set page numbers to the right colour and style.
\makeatletter
\fancypagestyle{mypagestyle}{%
\fancyhf{}% Clear header/footer
\fancyfoot[C]{\textcolor{LCARSTCMain}{\thepage}}% Page # in middle/centre of footer
\renewcommand{\footrulewidth}{0pt}% No footer rule
\def\footrule{{\if@fancyplain\let\footrulewidth\plainfootrulewidth\fi
\vskip-\footruleskip\vskip-\footrulewidth
\hrule\@width\headwidth\@height\footrulewidth\vskip\footruleskip}}
}
\makeatother
\pagestyle{mypagestyle}
\begin{document}
\begin{flushleft}
\pagecolor{LCARSBG} % Page background colour.
\color{LCARSTCMain} % Main body text colour.
\section*{\textcolor{LCARSTC5}{Section Title:}}
\textcolor{LCARSTC8}{A question or subheading here?}\newline
\textcolor{LCARSTC6}{Another sub heading:}\newline
\lipsum[1]
\begin{tikzpicture}
\draw[rounded corners] (0, 0) rectangle (4, 1) {};
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{flushleft}
\end{document}
However I want to do the actual shapes I believe tikz package is best for this?
Looking at : http://www.lcars-terminal.de/tutorial/guideline.htm
and especially http://www.lcars-terminal.de/tutorial/guideline/font_size.gif
I want to add the shapes like in this image to the margins and header of the document, what is the best way to achieve this? I am beginner in LaTeX.
