%Dear author, %you should have received or you should soon receive the referees' %comments on the paper you submitted to MSCS. If (the final version %is) accepted, %your paper should appear in a forthcoming issue of MSCS. %MSCS accepted papers are LaTeXed unless already so. Email LaTeX %versions of accepted papers are thus very welcome and speed up the %printing procedure. %When ready, please enquire with me in which issue your paper may %appear. %LaTeX papers should be directly sent to % RM111@phoenix.cambridge.ac.uk %plus aknowledgement that this has been done to me. This and the next %mail contain full TeX information. %Regards GL (longo@dmi.ens.fr) %PS Please mention the journal and the issue in your message to %Cambridge. %--- \documentstyle{mscs} \title{\LaTeX\ Style Guide for Authors} \author{\LaTeX-to-Type Service \\ Cambridge University Press} \date{November 1990} \shortauthor{\LaTeX\ Style Guide for Authors} \shorttitle{Mathematical Structures in Computer Science} \def\eg{{\it e.g.\ }} \def\etc{{\it etc}} \def\LaTeX{L\kern-.36em\raise.3ex\hbox{a}\kern-.15em T\kern-.1667em\lower.7ex\hbox{E}\kern-.125emX} \newtheorem{lemma}{Lemma} \begin{document} \maketitle \begin{abstract} This guide is for authors who are preparating papers for the Journal of Mathematical Structures in Computer Science using the \LaTeX\ document preparation system and the CUP MSCS style file. \end{abstract} \tableofcontents %\section{Instructions} % \noindent The layout design for the Journal of Mathematical Structures in Computer Science has been implemented as a \LaTeX\ style file. \section{Introduction to \LaTeX} The \LaTeX\ document preparation system is a special version of the \TeX\ typesetting program. \LaTeX\ adds to \TeX\ a collection of commands which simplify typesetting for the author by allowing him/her to concentrate on the logical structure of the document rather than its visual layout. \LaTeX\ provides a consistent and comprehensive document preparation interface. There are simple-to-use for generating a table of contents, lists of figures and/or tables, and indexes. \LaTeX\ can automatically number list entries, equations, figures, tables, and footnotes, as well as parts, sections and subsections. Using this numbering system, bibliographic citations, page references and cross references to any other numbered entity (\eg sections, equations, figures, list entries) are quite straightforward. \section{The MSCS Document Style} The use of document styles allows a simple change of style (or style option) to transform the appearance of your document. The CUP MSCS style file preserves the standard \LaTeX\ interface such that any document which can be produced using the standard \LaTeX\ \verb"ARTICLE" style, can also be produced with the MSCS style. However, the measure (or width of text) is wider than for \verb"ARTICLE" therefore line breaks will change and long equations may need re-setting. \subsection{Using the MSCS style} The MSCS document style is implemented as a complete document style {\em not\/} a document style option. In order to use the MSCS style, replace \verb"article" by \verb"mscs" in the \verb"\documentstyle" command at the beginning of your document: \begin{verbatim} \documentstyle{article} \end{verbatim} is replaced by, \begin{verbatim} \documentstyle{mscs} \end{verbatim} \subsection{Document style options} In general, the standard document style options should {\em not\/} be used with the MSCS style: \begin{itemize} \item {\tt 10pt}, {\tt 11pt}, {\tt 12pt} -- unavailable. \item {\tt draft}, {\tt twoside} (no associated style file) -- {\tt twoside} is the default. \item {\tt fleqn}, {\tt leqno}, {\tt titlepage}, {\tt twocolumn} -- unavailable. \item {\tt proc}, {\tt ifthen}, {\tt bezier} -- can be used if necessary. \end{itemize} \subsection{Additional Facilities} In addition to all the standard \LaTeX\ design elements, the MSCS style includes the following features: \begin{itemize} \item Full width and narrow figures and tables. \item A \verb"proof" environment. \end{itemize} \subsubsection{Figures and Tables} The {\tt figure} and {\tt table} environments are implemented as described in the \LaTeX\ Manual to provide consecutively numbered floating inserts for illustrations and tables respectively. The standard inserts and their captions are formatted unjustified on a restricted (30~pica) measure. Line breaks in captions can be inserted as required using \verb"\\". Wide figures and tables which require the full measure can be produced using the {\tt figure*} and {\tt table*} environments which are normally used to provide double-column inserts in two-columned documents. For example, \begin{verbatim} \begin{figure*} \vspace{12cm} \caption{Test of the Gibbs adsorption isotherm for oxygen on copper (Bauer, Speiser \& Hirth, 1976).} \end{figure*} \end{verbatim} These wide inserts and their captions are fomatted unjustified over the full text width. \subsubsection{Proofs} The \verb"proof" environment has been added to the standard \LaTeX\ constructs to provide a consistent format for proofs. For example, \begin{verbatim} \newtheorem{lemma}{Lemma} ... \begin{lemma} Most lemmas are dull but some lemmas are duller than others. This lemma is particularly dull and may even be the dullest known lemma. \end{lemma} \begin{proof} Most proofs are dull but some proofs are duller than others. This proof is particularly dull and may even be the dullest known proof. \end{proof} \end{verbatim} produces the following text: \begin{lemma} Most lemmas are dull but some lemmas are duller than others. This lemma is particularly dull and may even be the dullest known lemma. \end{lemma} \begin{proof} Most proofs are dull but some proofs are duller than others. This proof is particularly dull and may even be the dullest known proof. \end{proof} \end{document}
