Provide a LaTeX template? #258

Closed jradavenport closed 8 years ago

jradavenport commented 8 years ago

I can see the arguments for and against providing a LaTeX template, but it might be good to at least suggest a certain template or style for authors to submit using. This could go a long way towards making refereeing papers easier.

Side note: Is there need for a "real" paper to test the entire workflow with? I have a short paper in prep that might be ideal for The Open Journal as a venue...

@freelanceastro - we have a template correct?

freelanceastro commented 8 years ago

We do, and there's a link to it on the About page. It's not perfect, but it gets the job done. If you've got any suggestions on how to make it better, that would be really awesome, because I just slapped it together very fast.

And yeah, @jradavenport, "real" papers would be great. The more the better. Submit yours and then tell all your friends to do the same. We want them all, now.

Great! I found a class file here. Couldn't find any such link on http://theoj.org

I'll give it a shot!
