    • pdflatex intro
    • bibtex intro
    • pdflatex intro
    • pdflatex intro

* if it fails, check if you have available the following LaTeX packages required for PDG reviews in LaTeX:

    • ifthen

At the tutorial

We will use a dedicated database for the review: TutorialPdgWorkspace.
Once you open this webpage, you should see database: tutorial on the top left of the page, right under the PDGworkspace logo

Check out and compile your review

  • Open PDGworkspace TutorialPdgWorkspace.
  • Select the review that you intend to work on (click on the title of the review). You'll see the overview webpage.
  • To make sure your review is already available in Latex format, check under the Technical Details tab, that the format field correspond to LaTeX. If instead format field corresponds to TeXsis, your review has not been migrated to Latex yet. You need to choose a different review to work on.
  • Under the sources file tab, you can see the command line to check out your review. If the svn command contains LegacyRPP, your review has not been migrated to Latex yet. Otherwise the svn command will contain only the RPP string.
