Message-ID: Date: 24 Oct 90 17:22:49 GMT Sender: news@aipna.ed.ac.uk Distribution: comp Organization: CSTR, University of Edinburgh Lines: 28 Quite oten (still) periodicals &c will typeset papers that are submited to them from hard copy. Obviously the requirements on a paper submitted for this purpose are rather different than for a paper which is meant to be printed from directly. Wants to be double spaced so the printer can mark it easily. probably wants to have *no* hyphenation to avoid confusion. Floating objects should probably all go at the end, but clear references ("Figure near here") should be left in the text. Headings probably want to document themselves ("this is a 3rd-level heading"), if you want to use a different running head or something like that, the heading should perhaps also say this? Well there are probably other things I've not thought of... Really you want to get as close as possible to leaving the structired markupo in the document, without actually submitting LaTeX source (assuming they won't take that). Has anyone done something like this before I re-invent the wheel? --tim Tim Bradshaw.
