I want to make an illustrated encyclopedia similar to the one in these pictures, but have absolutely no clue how. Can someone provide me a template or information on it?Picture 1 Picture 2

    Welcome to TeX.SE. "How do I create this layout?" is not a good question for this site (nor most of the StackExchange). I would encourage you to start learning the basics of laying things out in TeX. 3 columns with pictures isn't too hard. Having text match a strange shape is fairly difficult. Once you have a start but are stuck somewhere, you can create a Minimal Working Example with your problem and we'd be glad to help you out. – Teepeemm Apr 28 '22 at 00:15

  • The two pages on top seem doable with standard LaTeX methods. The two pages below: no. Carefully cutting where text runs around such pictures is a task for a more graphically orientated software. I'd say InDesign and such. So if you want to create a graphically advanced encyclopedia, LaTeX might not be the way to go.

  • If you decide to start with LaTeX, you need to learn the basics. Never ever again ask a question without a MWE.

  • There are multiple questions about a more graphical layout, see here e.g. »Drowning witch in Oxford«.
