The required trick is: +<blockquote> +<pre> +\documentclass[twocolumn]{article} +... +\begin{document} +... % \author, etc +\twocolumn[ + \begin{@twocolumnfalse} + \maketitle + \begin{abstract} + ... + \end{abstract} + \end{@twocolumnfalse} + ] +</pre> +</blockquote><p> +Unfortunately, with the above <code>\</code><code>thanks</code> won’t work in the +<code>\</code><code>author</code> list. If you need such specially-numbered footnotes, you +can make them like this: +<blockquote> +<pre> +\title{Demonstration} +\author{Me, You\thanks{}} +\twocolumn[ + ... as above ... +] +{ + \renewcommand{\thefootnote}% + {\fnsymbol{footnote}} + \footnotetext[1]{Thanks for nothing} +} +</pre> +</blockquote><p> +and so on. +<p/>As an alternative, among other facilities the <i>abstract</i> package +provides a +<code>\</code><code>saythanks</code> command and a <code>onecolabstract</code> environment +which remove the need to fiddle with the <code>\</code><code>thanks</code> and +footnoting. They can be used like this: +<blockquote> +<pre> +\twocolumn[ + \maketitle % full width title + \begin{onecolabstract} % ditto abstract + ... text + \end{onecolabstract} +] +\saythanks % typeset any \thanks +</pre> +</blockquote><p> +The <i>memoir</i> class offers all the facilities of <i>abstract</i>. +<dl> +<dt><tt><i>abstract.sty</i></tt><dd><a href="ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/abstract.zip">macros/latex/contrib/abstract</a> (<a href="ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/abstract.tar.gz">gzipped tar</a>, <a href="http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/abstract/">browse</a>) +<dt><tt><i>memoir.cls</i></tt><dd><a href="ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/memoir.zip">macros/latex/contrib/memoir</a> (<a href="ftp://cam.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/memoir.tar.gz">gzipped tar</a>, <a href="http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/memoir/">browse</a>) +</dl> +<p/><p>This question on the Web: <a href="http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=onecolabs">http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=onecolabs</a> +</body> |
