STTEX: Stata module to integrate Stata results into a LaTeX document

Ben Jann

Statistical Software Components from Boston College Department of Economics

Abstract: sttex- is a command to process a LaTeX source file containing blocks of Stata code. -sttex. will extract the Stata commands into a do-file, run the do-file, and then weave the LaTeX source and the Stata output into a target LaTeX document. Optionally, -sttex- also typesets the LaTeX document and displays the resulting PDF. Various tags can be used within the LaTeX source file to define the information that will be processed by -sttex-. A main feature of -sttex- is that it detects whether Stata code changed between calls. If the code did not change, execution of Stata commands will be skipped to save computer time. It is also possible to partition a source file into independent sections, such that only the sections affected by changes will be executed.
