Photo board

Setup

Create list(s) of people in separate text files for each section in the photo board (e.g., PhD students, MS students, etc.). The file should contain one person per line, in the following format:

display-name[unique-id]

If the display-name is omitted, the unique-id will be used instead.

Photos should be placed in the photos directory, with a filename that matches unique-id (plus an extension). PNG files seem to work better with LaTeX than JPG. If a photo cannot be found, the blank profile image (noun_project_419.eps) will automatically be used instead.

The title for the photo board is in make-photoboard-tex.py -- replace "Your Title Here" with the title you like. The groups of people are defined in main of the same file, as follows:

groups = [
    ["Group 1", "group1.txt"],
    ["Group 2", "group2.txt"]]

The first field is the title that will be displayed on the photo board, and the second is the filename that lists the people in that group, as described above.

You may need to adjust numcolumns and numrows, as well as possibly some of the spacing, font sizes, paper size, etc., in that file to make everything fit the way you want.

Building

Run the following:

make clean
make

This should generate a photoboard.pdf file with the finished photo board.
