%%%%% CHOOSE PAGE LAYOUT
% This one will format for two-sided binding (ie left and right pages have mirror margins; blank pages inserted where needed):
%\documentclass[a4paper,twoside]{ociamthesis}
% This one will format for PDF output (ie equal margins, no extra blank pages):
\documentclass[a4paper,nobind,twoside]{ociamthesis}
%%%%% SELECT YOUR DRAFT OPTIONS
% Three options going on here; use in any combination. But remember to turn the first two off before generating a PDF to send to the printer!
% This adds a "DRAFT" footer to every normal page. (The first page of each chapter is not a "normal" page.)
%\fancyfoot[C]{\emph{DRAFT}}
% This highlights (in blue) corrections marked with (for words) \mccorrect{blah} or (for whole
% paragraphs) \begin{mccorrection} . . . \end{mccorrection}. This can be useful for sending a PDF of
% your corrected thesis to your examiners for review. Turn it off, and the blue disappears.
%\correctionstrue
%%%%% BIBLIOGRAPHY SETUP
% Note that your bibliography will require some tweaking depending on your department, preferred format, etc.
% The options included below are just very basic "sciencey" and "humanitiesey" options to get started.
% If you've not used LaTeX before, I recommend reading a little about biblatex/biber and getting started with it.
% If you're already a LaTeX pro and are used to natbib or something, modify as necessary.
% Either way, you'll have to choose and configure an appropriate bibliography format...
% The science-type option: numerical in-text citation with references in order of appearance.
%\usepackage[style=ieee, sorting=none, backend=biber, doi=false, isbn=false]{biblatex}
\usepackage{natbib}
\AtBeginDocument{\renewcommand{\bibname}{References}}
% Please add the following required packages to your document preamble:
\usepackage[justification=centering, labelfont=bf]{caption}
\usepackage{multirow}
\usepackage{svg}
% Define the paths for svg files to be saved in so it searches accordingly when compiling locally
% Insert any path where the figures might be. When calling includesvg[width=\linewidth]{svgfilename}
% Just use the filename without a path, and without the .svg filetype

%%%%% THESIS / TITLE PAGE INFORMATION
% Everybody needs to complete the following:

\department{Your Department}
% Your full degree name. (But remember that DPhils aren't "in" anything. They're just DPhils.)

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
%%%%% THE ACTUAL DOCUMENT STARTS HERE %%%%%
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\begin{document}
%%%%% CHOOSE YOUR LINE SPACING HERE
% This is the official option. Use it for your submission copy and library copy:
\setlength{\textbaselineskip}{22pt plus2pt}
% This is closer spacing (about 1.5-spaced) that you might prefer for your personal copies:
%\setlength{\textbaselineskip}{18pt plus2pt minus1pt}
% You can set the spacing here for the roman-numbered pages (acknowledgements, table of contents, etc.)
\setlength{\frontmatterbaselineskip}{17pt plus1pt minus1pt}
% Leave this line alone; it gets things started for the real document.
\setlength{\baselineskip}{\textbaselineskip}
% MSB: define vertical separation from header for all pages, fixes large space at top of page in pages after chapter titlepage
\setlength{\headsep}{5mm}
%%%%% CHOOSE YOUR SECTION NUMBERING DEPTH HERE
% You have two choices. First, how far down are sections numbered? (Below that, they're named but
% don't get numbers.) Second, what level of section appears in the table of contents? These don't have
% to match: you can have numbered sections that don't show up in the ToC, or unnumbered sections that
% do. Throughout, 0 = chapter; 1 = section; 2 = subsection; 3 = subsubsection, 4 = paragraph...
% The level that gets a number:
\setcounter{secnumdepth}{2}
% The level that shows up in the ToC:
\setcounter{tocdepth}{1}
%%%%% ABSTRACT SEPARATE
% This is used to create the separate, one-page abstract that you are required to hand into the Exam
% Schools. You can comment it out to generate a PDF for printing or whatnot.
%\begin{abstractseparate}
%\input{text/abstract} % Create an abstract.tex file in the 'text' folder for your abstract.
%\end{abstractseparate}
% JEM: Pages are roman numbered from here, though page numbers are invisible until ToC. This is in
% keeping with most typesetting conventions.
\begin{romanpages}
% Title page is created here
\maketitle
% Include a tickbox to certify this is your own work unless stated otherwise
%\originalitytext
%%%%% DEDICATION -- If you'd like one, un-comment the following.
%\begin{dedication}
%This thesis is dedicated to\\
%someone\\
%for some special reason\\
%\end{dedication}
%%%%% ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS -- Nothing to do here except comment out if you don't want it.

%%% MINI TABLES OF CONTENTS, FIGURES, TABLES %%%
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
% This lays the groundwork for per-chapter, mini tables of contents. Comment the following line
% (and remove \minitoc from the chapter files) if you don't want this. Un-comment either of the
% next two lines if you want a per-chapter list of figures or tables.
\dominitoc % include a mini table of contents
%\dominilof % include a mini list of figures
%\dominilot % include a mini list of tables
% This aligns the bottom of the text of each page. It generally makes things look better.

%%% LIST OF ABBREVIATIONS %%%
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
% This example includes a list of abbreviations. Look at text/abbreviations.tex to see how that file is

% glossary, etc.
