Instructions for LaTeX authors

Authors using the LaTeX typesetting system should download and use the official journal LaTeX class, called lps.cls, which includes a template file. The class should be included in the standard LaTeX distributions (such as MikTeX or TeXLive); alternatively, the last version of the class can be downloaded from The Comprehensive TeX Archive Network (CTAN).

LaTeX authors should compile (possibly through PDFLaTeX) their article using the L&PS class and submit both the final PDF file and the original TeX source (.tex file). They should also attach any additional file necessary for the compilation, like external images (best in JPG or PDF format), or BibTeX bibliography files (.bib).

Example: Rudolf Carnap may submit an article as a compressed folder called carnap.zip with the following internal structure:

  • carnap.zip
    • carnap.tex
    • carnap.pdf
    • mybibliography.bib
    • Images folder
      • mypicture.jpg
      • mygraph.pdf
