\documentclass{tufte-handout} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{booktabs} \usepackage{graphicx} \usepackage{microtype} \title{An Example Tufte Handout} \author{Your Name} \date{\today} \begin{document} \maketitle \begin{abstract} \noindent This handout demonstrates the Tufte-\LaTeX{} layout: a wide margin for sidenotes and small figures, tight integration of text and graphics, and restrained typography. Replace this abstract with a one-paragraph summary of your handout. \end{abstract} \section{The Layout} \newthought{The defining feature} of this class is the margin. Footnotes become sidenotes\sidenote{Like this one, numbered automatically and placed in the margin, right next to the text they annotate.}, so the reader never has to jump to the bottom of the page. Unnumbered remarks go in with \verb|\marginnote|.\marginnote{A margin note: no number, just commentary placed alongside the paragraph.} \section{Figures and Tables} Small figures belong in the margin, full-width figures span both columns: \begin{marginfigure} \begin{center} \setlength{\unitlength}{1pt} \begin{picture}(120,80) \put(0,0){\framebox(120,80){margin figure}} \end{picture} \end{center} \caption{A margin figure sits in the sidenote column.} \label{fig:margin} \end{marginfigure} Tables follow Tufte's rules as well: no vertical rules, minimal horizontal ones. \begin{table}[ht] \centering \begin{tabular}{lrr} \toprule Quantity & 1900 & 2000 \\ \midrule Alpha & 12.4 & 18.1 \\ Beta & 3.1 & 9.7 \\ \bottomrule \end{tabular} \caption{A table in the main column.} \label{tab:example} \end{table} \section{Mathematics} Displayed mathematics is unchanged from standard \LaTeX: \begin{equation} \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} e^{-x^2}\,dx = \sqrt{\pi}. \end{equation} \newthought{To start writing}, replace the sections above with your content, or ask the agent in the chat alongside this document to draft, restructure, or typeset material in this style for you. \end{document}- Libraries and docs
