authorarchive

A LaTeX style for producing author self-archiving copies of (academic) papers.

Installation

Copy authorarchive.sty in a directory that is searched by LaTeX (e.g,. either your texmf tree or the local directory with your main LaTeX file.

Usage

A simple use for LNCS-formatted papers is as follows:

\usepackage[LNCS,
   key=brucker-authorarchive-2016,
   year=2016,
   publication={Anonymous et al. (eds). Proceedings of the International
       Conference on LaTeX-Hacks, LNCS~42. Some Publisher, 2016.}
   startpage={42},
   doi={00/00_00},
   doiText={0/00\_00},
   nocopyright
 ]{authorarchive}

The following layout-styles are pre-defined:

• ACM for the two-column layout used by many ACM conferences
• IEEE for the two-column layout used by many IEEE conferences
• LNCS for the LNCS layout (as used by Springer)
• LNI for the Lecture Notes in Informatics, published by the GI
• ENTCS for the Elsevier ENTCS layout

By re-defining the font command (authorcrfont{}) and the command that is used for positioning the copyright text (\authorat{}), the package can be adapted easily to other layouts. For example,

\renewcommand{\authorcrfont}{\scriptsize}
\renewcommand{\authorat}[1]{\put(25,56.5){#1}}

works nicely for Acta Informatica.

Embedding Bibliography Entries

Mostly, it is hard for scientists to find the correct bibtex entry for a paper. One solution to this issue is to embed the respective .bib, .enw, .ris, or .word.xml file in the PDF directly. This work allows for that. In case any of these file exist in the current directory, it gets embedded in the PDF.

You can generate these files by using JabRef's export functionalities.
