+\section{Introduction}
+\label{sec:intro}
+This document describes the \textit{global} option for the \SJour\
+\LaTeXe\ document class. It is meant for journals (of one- or two-column
+style) that have not yet been supported via a particular class option.
+
+For details on manuscript handling and the review process we refer to
+the \emph{Instructions for authors} in the printed journal you are
+writing your article for. For style matters please consult also previous
+issues of ``your'' journal.
+
+\section{Initializing the Class}
+\label{sec:opt}
+
+Please make sure that no particular class option exists for your current
+project, take a good look at the announcing web page
+\[\verb|http://www.springer.de/author/tex/help-journals.html|\]
+
+If the journal is not listed there the specific package is not yet
+ready and you should begin your document with
+\begin{verbatim}
+ \documentclass[global]{svjour}
+\end{verbatim}
+This holds for a \emph{one-column} journal -- for a \emph{two-column}
+journal just add the option \verb|twocolumn| so that the documentclass
+command now reads
+\begin{verbatim}
+ \documentclass[global,twocolumn]{svjour}
+\end{verbatim}
+All other options are also described
+in the main \emph{Users guide}.
+
+\section{Things to Note}
+
+There may be a slightly different layout for the journal you plan to
+create an article for and which is not taken care for by the
+\emph{global} option. This is not a great problem since all the articles
+are reprocessed anyway to include final page numbers, bibliographic
+information, and so on. The final layout is applied to your article
+during this process thus deriving benefit from the general use of
+\LaTeXe\ and the \SJour\ document class altogether.
+
+Since Springer-Verlag publishes over 400 different journals -- over 50
+thereof with \TeX\ -- it may take a while to produce a specific \TeX\
+macro package just for the one you are writing for at the moment. Please
+keep an eye on the web page mentioned above.
