Submission Information and FAQ for LaTeX AuthorsWant to know more about submitting a LaTeX or TeX manuscript to an AMS journal? Come to the Journal Author's Workshop at the 2012 AMS Annual Meeting in New Orleans on Tuesday January 24 12:15-1:15. Read More
1. I have submitted a new/revised manuscript to the AMS’s Editorial Manager system for peer review, but the PDF is not building correctly.
Do NOT include directory paths like this: \bibliographystyle{./ametsoc} \bibliography{./bibliography/references}
\noindent\includegraphics[width=7.0in]{../figures/surface.eps} These must be changed to remove the directory paths: \bibliographystyle{ametsoc} \bibliography{references} \noindent\includegraphics[width=7.0in]{surface.eps}
Do NOT include the file extension in the following commands: \bibliographystyle{ametsoc.bst} \bibliography{references.bib} These must be changed to remove the three letter file extension \bibliographystyle{ametsoc} \bibliography{references} 2. How do I layout a table or figure in landscape?In order to layout a table in landscape you need to add use of the "rotating" package:
\usepackage{rotating}
and then create the table using the "sidewaystable" environment:
\begin{sidewaystable} . . . \end{sidewaystable}
For landscape figures use:
\begin{sidewaysfigure} . . . \end{sidewaysfigure}
Also, the template uses the endfloat package to move tables and figures to the end of the document. By default, the "endfloat" package is aware of the "figure" and "table" environments only. To make "endfloat" also move the "sidewaysfigure" and "sidewaystable" environments to the end of the paper, you could download the file endfloat.cfg (.tar) and save it in the same folder in which your LaTeX (.tex) document is located. 3. My reference citations appear as question marks when building the PDF on my personal computer.The bibtex program is responsible for formatting the references. So, after running the latex command once, make sure you run the bibtex command once to format the references and then the latex command twice more to clear up any dependencies. 4. I want to have a figure fill an entire page. How can I do this and have the caption on the facing page?To have the full sized figure on one page and the caption on the facing page you need to do something similar to that shown in the following snippet of code: \begin{figure}[p] \begin{leftfullpage} \noindent\includegraphics[width=39pc,angle=0]{figure01.pdf} \end{leftfullpage} \end{figure} \begin{figure}[tp] \caption{Enter the caption for your figure here.}\label{f1} \end{figure}5. The figure and/or table numbering is incorrect in the appendices. Instead of the correct appendix numbering (e.g. A1, A2, A3, etc.) the numbering is continued from the main text of the manuscript.This is a known issue and will be corrected when possible. For now allowing the figure/table numbering to continue from the main text is acceptable. AMS copyeditors will correct the numbering when your manuscript is accepted and goes through our production workflow. 6. Tables are not double spaced.This is a known issue and will be corrected when possible. . For now, you don't need to worry about it. Your paper will be accepted with single spaced tables. 7. How do I add the required line number to my manuscript.The code for adding line numbers exists in the latest version (5/1/11) AMS template. If you are using your own files do the following: Add the following lines to your .tex file in the preamble (before the the \begin{document} command). The \usepackage{lineno} command must be placed after any use of \uspackage{amsmath} package commands. \usepackage{lineno} \linenumbers Do NOT use the pagewise option to the lineno package or the \setpagewiselinenumbers, \pagewiselinenumbers or \begin{pagewiselinenumbers} commands. Pagewise numbering requires the running LaTeX/PDFLaTeX an unspecified number of times until the numbers start at 1 on eeach page. This is not possible with an automated system. There is a known issue with the lineno package and the numbering of text in the paragraph preceding a display equation. This can be resolved by wrapping each display equation with the linenomath environment. For example:
\begin{linenomath*} \begin{equation}\label{eq:4} {\cal L}_{fw}[{\cal A}]\;=\;\sum_\alpha {\cal S}_\alpha \end{equation} \end{linenomath*} 8. Citations and equation, table, and figure references in my figure captions result in an error. How can this be fixed?\cite and \ref are what is called "fragile" commands. They must be "protected" using the \protect command when used in a caption. For example: \begin{figure} ... \caption{The graph of the temperature profile given by \protect\ref{some_eqtn} developed by \protect\cite{Anderson98}} \end{figure}
