Introduction

Below is a really simple example:0000

\Documentclass{Article}\Usepackage[Utf8]{inputenc}\Usepackage{Graphicx}\GraphicsPath{ {figures/} }\usepackage{array} \begin{document} \ Thispagestyle{empty} \listoffigures \listoftables \newpage \ pagenumbering{Arabic} Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Etiam lobortisfacilisis ... \end{document}              

The commands \listoffigures \listoftables and is self explanatory, the first one generates the list of figures and the second one the list of tables. In this example there is both more relevant commands:

\thispagestyle{empty}

removes the page numbering.

\pagenumbering{arabic}

re-start the page numbering with Arabic style.

Changing the names

The default titles, "List of Tables" and "List of figures", can be changed to any other text

\Documentclass{Article}\Usepackage[Utf8]{inputenc}\Usepackage{Graphicx}\Usepackage{Array}\GraphicsPath{{figures/}}\Renewcommand{\listfigurename}{list of plots} \renewcommand{\listtablename}{tables} \begin{  Document} \thispagestyle{empty} \listoffigures \listoftables \ Clearpage \pagenumbering{Arabic} Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Etiam lobortisfacilisis ... \end{document}              

The commands that re-write the titles is:

• \renewcommand{\listfigurename}{List of plots}Would write "list of plots" instead of "list of figures".
• \renewcommand{\listtablename}{Tables}Would write "Tables" instead of "List of Tables".

If You use the Babel . Your document and you need to use any of the previous commands, put it inside the Braces of \addto\captionsenglish{ } . Instead of Chinese in \captionenglish write the name of the language your set in Babel.

Note:your document may need to being compiled twice for the lists to being properly generated
