-Several years ago I began using LaTeX to write my SUG papers.
-In order to produce a paper which conforms
-to SAS User Group International conference paper guidelines
-it is necessary to modify the LaTeX document class article.
-
-After reviewing several other LaTeX class files: e.g.: acmconf.cls,
-I wrote my own SUGconf.cls and posted it to SAS-L.

-At the 2006 PracTeX conference, a Little Birdie
-(SAS-L euphemism for a SAS Institute employee)
-suggested that it would be a Good Idea to post my class file
-and some examples to CTAN,
-by which act I would then accept responsibility for maintenance.

-* All SUG conferences now require submission of papers as a .pdf.
-TeX distributions provide pdfLaTeX.exe which produces a .pdf
-from the source text file. (.tex or .ltx or .txt).
-The .pdf can be read with Adobe Reader v5 or greater.
-Note: pdfLaTeX also produces a .dvi, which is easier to review
-while editing and polishing.
-See the command: \pdfoutput= in each .tex file.
