If you were writing an article for a scientific journal...

[epepke]

OK you use TeX, but what do you use to create the articles? What template do you use?

As for templates, whatever one is required by the particular journal.

 

[Paul C. Anagnostopoulos]

If the journal doesn't provide one, use the article class.

I'm gonna have to throw my hat in with LaTeX myself. I don't have much experience with it yet, but so far I'm digging t.

 

[Paul C. Anagnostopoulos]

Hey Wheezer. My offer is open: Anyone needing LaTeX assistance, PM me.

Can't we have a thread? "Dr Paul's LaTeX Clinic."

On second thoughts, maybe it needs a different name...

 

[no one in particular]

How about "PaulA's LaTeX talk?"

Oh yes - I think this warrants a sticky in the Forum Help section - come on PaulA do it!

 

[Paul C. Anagnostopoulos]

Okay, done, although I couldn't handle the PaulA thing.

Are you delivering a manuscript or camera-ready pages for printing?

Well, that's part of the "discussion." I thought I was just delivering a manuscript and that they had in-house LaTeX experts to hammer out the rough edges.

It turns out that they don't, or they're too expensive, or they don't pick up the phone, or my editor doesn't like them, or something. So most of the stuff that I was figuring the layout man would do for me, they're throwing back in my face.
