LaTeX style file romp40.sty

Using romp40.sty style file will make your LaTeX output look like a paper in ROMP, hence it will help you keep within the page limits, preview line breaks, etc. Here are some more detailed instructions.

• Download the style file romp40.sty by clicking the right mouse button and sellecting "Save target as..." in the menu. Save it (named romp40.sty) in the same directory where your paper LaTeX source file(s) is kept and processed.
• Your paper should be prepared in the standard LaTeX  "article"  or  "report"  style syntax.  romp40.sty  just alters the meaning of typical commands, like  \maketitle, \section,  etc., so there are no new things to learn. Please, study the short exemplary file example.tex.
• romp40.sty  works fine with both LaTeX 2.09 and LaTeX2E. With LaTeX 2.09 you simply begin your source file with

\documentstyle[romp40]{article}
...
while with LaTeX2E it should be
 
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{romp40}
...
• Do not change any formatting (lengths), numbering or referencing definitions in the  romp40  style. The papers are eventually processed as a single LaTeX job and similar macro names appearing in different papers cause problems which are often hard to detect. Therefore, the use of private macros should be reduced to a necessary minimum; if you use any, please do not forget to include them in the source of your paper, avoiding short names likely to be repeated, e.g. "\be" for "\begin{equation}" or for "\beta". Do not use local macro packages which are not standard. Discard from your source file any macros not used in this file.
• The source file should not contain lines longer than 80 characters. Also discard from your file any lines commented out by "%". E-mail system may wrap long lines, possibly altering TeX output. Moreover, since your file will be reformated by us, short lines will make our work easier.
