# Full Article

The class `fullarticle.cls` can be used to typeset research papers or reports using the `article` class in LaTeX.

### Included Packages

In addition to the defaults, `fullarticle.cls` includes commonly used packages:

* `geometry` to customise margins,
* `graphicx` to handle images and figures,
* `booktabs` for better looking tables,
* `caption`for better captions,
* `xcolor` for coloured text and output,
* `fancyhdr` for *fancy* style paging,
* `authblk` to automatically handle multiple authors and affiliations,
* `tocbibind` to include the bilbliography in the table of contents (using `nottoc` option to avoid duplicating the *Contents* section in the table),
* `biblatex` for bibliography support (with `biber` backend, `none` sorting, `ieee` style of citations, and 3 names at most before truncating with *et al.*),
* `bookmark` to import *hyperref* and customise the metadata.
