I have prepared my PhD thesis in the LaTeX template of Cambridge University, available here. (I'm using an older version 1.1, which can be accessed here.)
Now, I am experiencing two major problems with this template, when I compile everything in the twoside format (by so defining it in the documentclass):
- The starting page (odd numbered, like Pg 1) looks like Figure (b) instead of Figure (a).
Figure (a)
Figure (b)
Of course, I would want all odd numbered pages (which is where e.g. Chapter 1 commences) to look like Fig. (a) and all even numbered pages to look like Fig. (b) (the back page). What this class file is compiling is the exact opposite. Any work-arounds for swapping the two?
The second problem is with tweaking the format of the text displayed in the header of the chapter content pages (viz. the section title and chapter title, respectively for the odd and even numbered pages). I have been successful in implementing my desired format using the structure:
\fancyhead[LE] {\bf \chaptername\ \thechapter. Chapter Name }
Thus, everything of this type is sorted out for the chapters and the references. But the problem is with the auto-generated pages, like the table of contents, list of figures and tables etc.
An illustration of the problem is, e.g. in the contents pages, where the odd numbered pages read Contents in the header (in accordance with my wishes), but the even numbered pages read CONTENTS, according to some default prescription somewhere in the class file which I am not able to tweak. This looks hilarious!
So, my question is - how can I tweak this (and only this) given class file to implement these two changes. I am more of a LaTeX beginner (as compared to the level of this site) and can't make out how to go about tweaking the class file to produce the desired changes. Secondly, unless it is difficult to the extent of impossible, I wouldn't want to change the LaTeX template at this stage (since I'm done with writing now), so please avoid these type of suggestions.
More information - The class file for the template is as follows:
