Switch to svproc.cls

[koppor]

According to https://www.springer.com/gp/authors-editors/conference-proceedings/conference-proceedings-guidelines, the svproc.cls class is the class to use. In the ProSci_TeX.zip, there is an author.tex using svproc.cls.

However, http://www.springer.com/de/it-informatik/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines still links to the llncs.cls. Thus, no switch necessary.

@amandeep0429 Please refine your problem.

I tried to repodruce:

Download ftp://ftp.springernature.com/cs-proceeding/svproc/templates/ProcSci_TeX.zip (from mirror http://www.logdynamics.de/fileadmin/Upload/Dokumente/LDIC_2020/ProcSci_TeX.zip)

pdflatex:

$ pdflatex author.tex
This is pdfTeX, Version 3.14159265-2.6-1.40.21 (MiKTeX 20.7)
entering extended mode

Inspect the zip archive. In ../styles, there is svproc.cls. I copied that .cls file to the directory template. Now, pdflatex works
