  It's a great resource, Steve. I ended up reading it cover to cover just
because it was so interesting and answered so many questions.

  I've also found Helmut Kopka and Patrick W. Daly's Guide to LaTeX, Fourth
Edition, and The LaTeX Graphics Companion to be worth having here at the
desk.

Happy reading!

Chapter with numbering but without word chapter

[liliann]

Hi!

Does anyone know, if it is possible to get rid of the word chapter in the 
chapter title without losing the numbering as well (using chapter*)?

Thank you!!!

See the attached example file. I demonstrate the effect for the document 
language ngerman, see the preamble.

Assuming you're using the book document class, find the file
book.cls. do a search for Chapter and you can see a line like this:

  \newcommand\chaptername{Chapter}

To override this definition, just add this to the preamble to your document:

  \renewcommand\chaptername{}

That should drop the word Chapter from the chapter headings, the table
of contents, and the page header.

If you're using some other document class, there is probably a similar
way. Note I'm fairly new to LaTeX so others might have a better way!
