Hi,
I am rewriting an art icle to a chapter of my PhD thesis and for the time being I am
using the report class. I would like my chapters to start with a page containing the
chapter title and an abstract summarising the contents of the chapter. I tried to do
this in the 'report' class but I encounter a few problems:
- The abstract is typeset on page of its own.
- After an abstract the page counter is reset.
I guess report is not the right class to to this. Can somebody point me a class where
I can achieve the following:
1) A chapter starts with a page containing the title and abstract, with a sane
pagenumbering
2) I would like to have an bibliography at the end of each chapter. (I will have a
look at chapterbib)
3) I do not want to have the chapter titles start with 'Chapter X'
4) I would like to be able to use the \frontmatter and \mainmatter commando's
I think the standard book and its equivalent from komascript are good candidates, but
I still don't know how to achieve 1).
Can somebody give me some advice on how to achieve want I want? Another class or just
a clever latex package? I have seen a few PhD theses written in LaTeX with this
layout, so it has to be possible.
Thanks in advance!
