# KU Frontpage in LaTeX



Provides a frontpage with University of Copenhagen logo following the

guidelines in the official [design guide](http://designguide.ku.dk). This

package provides a frontpage similar to the one provided by the [`ku-forside`

package](http://www.math.ku.dk/~m00cha/).



Features:



 - Contains the updated seal for the Faculty of Science from 2014.

 - Follows the guidelines for logo placement.

 - The logo grid (the figure with circles and triangles) is optional.



Todo:



 - So far only has the logo for the Faculty of Science.



## Installation



[Download the ZIP](https://github.com/mbudde/kufront/archive/master.zip) and extract `kufront.sty` and all the PDF files to the same directory as your document.



## Permanent Linux Installation

If you want to permanently install the package on linux run the following

terminal commands:

 - ```$ cd ~/texmf/tex/latex/local/```

The package can now be used from any document.
