<title>UK TeX FAQ -- question label journalpaper</title>
</head><body>
<h3>Setting papers for journals</h3>
<p>Publishers of journals have a wide range of requirements for the
presentation of papers, and while many publishers do accept electronic
submissions in (La)TeX, they don't often submit recommended macros to
public archives.
<p>Nevertheless, there are considerable numbers of macros of one sort or
another available on CTAN; searching for your journal name in
the CTAN catalogue (see
<a href="FAQ-findfiles.html">searching CTAN</a>)
may well turn up what you're seeking.
<p>Failing that, you may be well advised to contact the prospective
publisher of your paper; many publishers have macros on their own web
sites, or otherwise available only upon application.
<p>Check that the publisher is offering you macros suitable to an
environment you can use: a few still have no macros for current
LaTeX, for example, claiming that LaTeX 2.09 is good enough...
<p>Some publishers rekey anything sent them anyway, so that it doesn't
really matter what macros you use. Others merely encourage you to use
as few extensions of a standard package as possible, so that they will
find it easy to transform your paper to their own internal form.
