Notes on LaTeX

Updated April, 2026

Basic setup

\DocumentMetadata{
  lang        = en-US,
  pdfstandard = ua-2,
  pdfstandard = a-4f, %or a-4
  tagging=on,
  tagging-setup={math/setup=mathml-SE}
}

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{hyperref}

\hypersetup{
    pdflang=en-US,
    pdftitle={<title of PDF>},
    pdfauthor={<author>}
}

Notes

• The hypersetup part sets a title in the PDF’s metadata which Brightspace’s checker flags if this isn’t present.
• Compile with LuaLaTeX
• Use the most up-to-date version of LuaLaTeX available.
