<p>I am fighting with a very horrible master thesis template. Some smart _ss designed some features which couldn't be done in MS Word without manual correction so I'm trying to make it works in LaTeX to hack it.</p> <p>Here is some deal breakers: <a href="https://i.sstatic.net/XoH9l.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.sstatic.net/XoH9l.png" alt="The thesis template preview"></a></p> <p>The chapter format - Times New Roman, 14pt, Red color (incl. chapter number), capitalized, with line at the right side for even page and at the left side for odd page and with the number of the chapter.</p> <p>The section format - Times New Roman, 12pt, with line at the right side for even page and at the left side for odd page and with the number of the section. </p> <p>Same with subsection.</p> <p>Heading and footer have colored line with a different page numbering for odd/even pages.</p> <p>I've worked with LaTeX in past and I have a decent LaTeX knowledge but this is totally out of my skills. Could somebody, please, help me with definitions of those dealbreaker?</p>

<p>I'd like some help with the formatting of chapter, section and subsections.</p> <p>I am using the report document class and I'd like to generate the following chapter, section and subsection formatting in the document.</p> <p>Each (and only) chapter page should have a 2in top margin. Chapters, Section and Subsection title should have the same font size as text.</p> <p>Then, the format should be as follows: Capital Roman Numbering for chapters, chapter title should be centered and display only the number dot the title of the chapter, i.e. </p> <p>I. Introduction</p> <p>Lower case roman numbering for section also centered and should display Chapter number dot Section Number dot Section title, i.e. </p> <p>I.i. Section in Introduction chapter</p> <p>And finally the subsection should not be numbered at all and left justified.</p>

<p>I want my chapter titles to look as they would with the code below.</p> <pre><code>\documentclass[12pt]{book} \pagestyle{plain} \usepackage{amssymb,latexsym} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{amsthm} \begin{document} \centering CHAPTER II \\ SUBSQUARES \end{document} </code></pre> <p>Centered all caps and with roman numeral numbering. I have tried <code>titlesec</code> and <code>\renewcommand</code>. Apparently, I do not understand the parameters of <code>\titleformat</code> well enough to get it to do what I want. I can get something close with <code>\renewcommand</code> however the chapter numbers do not increment. Any help is very appreciated.</p> <pre><code>\renewcommand{\chapter}{\uppercase{CHAPTER} {\Roman{chapter}} \\} </code></pre>

<p>When I redefine the command \cleardoublepage to include the words "This page has been intentionally left blank", the titles of the chapters are misaligned.</p> <pre><code>\documentclass{book} \usepackage[a4paper, top=14mm, bottom=10mm, inner=15mm, outer=13mm, bindingoffset=10mm, includefoot, includehead, headsep=14mm, footskip=14mm]{geometry} \usepackage{titlesec} \titleformat{\chapter}[hang]{\normalfont\huge\bfseries}{\chaptertitlename\ \thechapter.}{1em}{} \newcommand*{\blankpage}{% \vspace*{\fill} \centering [This page is intentionally left blank] \vspace{\fill}} \makeatletter \renewcommand*{\cleardoublepage}{\clearpage\if@twoside \ifodd\c@page\else \blankpage \thispagestyle{empty} \newpage \if@twocolumn\hbox{}\newpage\fi\fi\fi} \makeatother \makeatletter \begin{document} \chapter{First chapter title.} \chapter{Misaligned chapter title illustrating the bug I'm experiencing.} \end{document} </code></pre> <p><img src="https://i.sstatic.net/yzZnv.jpg" alt="enter image description here"></p>
