Manuscript Preparation Using LaTeX2e
Instructions for Authors of Multi-Author Books / Proceedings
Dear Author,
We are pleased to find that you will typeset your contribution to a multi-author book with the help
of our LaTeX2e style file.
In the current directory you will find the following style files:
cl2emult.cls
% basic LaTeX2e class
cropmark.sty % puts cropmarks on the first page of your contribution
sprmidx.sty
% supports the Springer layout style for indexes
subeqnar.sty % enables sub-numbering of equations
math.sty
% additional parameter for specific style requirements
The packages “graphicx”, “multicol” and the program “makeidx” are also needed and should be
part of every standard LATEX installation – if this is not the case on your computer, you may copy
them easily and in the latest version from the CTAN server (Address: http://www.dante.de/cgi-
bin/ctan-index).
In addition please find the following sample files in the current directory:
author.tex % sample input file of a contribution
figure.eps % sample figure file
Please put the complete set of files in your “working directory” and start LATEX2e – the sample TEX
files should run smoothly. I strongly suggest that you use the attached sample file for your own
manuscript input or editing since many parameters have been fixed by us so as to facilitate the final
text and page layout according to Springer standards:
1. Styles
• math
: puts a frame around figure spaces
• makeidx+sprmindx
: generates the index according to Springer layout
• cropmark
: generates cropmarks on every first page of a chapter
• multicol
: “balances out” 2 columns on last page of the index
2. Some additional definitions and styles (e.g. to produce an upright µ for micro... ) and
3. All commands necessary for a smooth TEX run.
