The Maple Technical Newsletter Styles (LaTeX2e) ================================================ This directory contains latex2e style files and sample documents of interest to contributors to the Maple Technical NewsLetter. In particular, see the sample article MTNarticle.tex. This article is also available as an HTML document. See the file: ftp://ftp.maplesoft.com/pub/maple/MTN/MTNarticle/MTNarticle.html Author's Guide Lines -------------------- When preparing an article for MTN, the following general guidelines should be followed. - Prepare the article exactly as you would a standard LaTeX "article", indicating the \title and \author. Abstracts will not be used in the final publication. - When giving examples in Maple, both input and output must be shown. Include Maple commands and and Maple results using the same macros as used by "Export to LaTeX". (See below) - The reader should be able to reproduce the output by simply entering every Maple input, i.e. you should not hide some steps. To prepare your article, structure it exactly as you would a standard latex "article". For example, - Specify the title using the \title{...} macro. - Specify the author / authors using \author{...} and their institutions by using \thanks{...} - Include the title by using the \maketitle macro. - Use ordinary \section{...}, and \subsection{...} commands to break up your article. The final document will be processed using the the document class mtn.cls. Thus, a typical article will have the structure \documentclass[11pt]{mtn} \usepackage{palatino} \begin{document} \title{The D Operator and Algorithmic \\ Differentiation} \author{Michael Monagan \thanks{Informatik E.T.H., Z\"{u}rich, Switzerland. monagan@inf.ethz.ch} \and J. S. Devitt\thanks{Faculty of Mathematics, University of Waterloo, Canada, jsdevitt@daisy.uwaterloo.ca} } \shorttitle{D Operator} \maketitle \begin{document} \section{Introduction} ... \end{document} You can use the standard LaTeX "article" style for preparation just by omitting the "\shorttitle". Use the macro package found in "mapleenv.sty". In that case the document would begin \documentclass[11pt]{article} \usepackage{mapleenv} \begin{document} \title{...} \author{...} \maketitle ... In either case, Maple input and output should be inserted in a format analogous to that produced by "Export to LaTeX" from a Maple V Release 3 worksheet. Examples of Maple input and output are Input: \begin{mapleinput} x + y^2; \end{mapleinput} Output: \begin{maplelatex} \[ x + y^2 \] \end{maplelatex} TTYOutput: \begin{maplettyout} 2 x + y \end{maplettyout} Plots: \mapleplot{filename.ps} Required LaTeX2e Macro Packages and Styles ------------------------------------------- Before processing your document with LaTeX2e you will require the style files mtn.cls (fileversion 1.8 or newer) mapleenv.sty (fileversion 4.0 or newer) and the "graphics" package that is part of LaTeX2e distribution must be installed as part of your LaTeX environment. A copy is located in the "graphics" subdirectory. The graphics macros must be expanded for installation by running the command % latex2e graphics.ins The result of expanding this macro package is found in the subdirectory "graphics_expanded". The master graphics source files are available from ftp://ftp.shsu.edu/tex-archive/macros/latex2e/packages/graphics The Maple styles are available from ftp://ftp.maplesoft.com/pub/maple/MTN ftp://ftp.shsu.edu/tex-archive/macros/latex2e/contrib/supported/maple The document maplems.tex provides additional documentation on how to use the styles.
