ABSTRACT

In this sample-structured document, neither the cross-linking of float elements and bibliography nor metadata/copyright information is available. The sample document is provided in “Draft” mode and to view it in the final layout format, applying the required template is essential with some standard steps.

These steps, which should require the generation of the final output from the styled paper, are mentioned here in this paragraph. First, users have to run “Reference Numbering” from the “Reference Elements” menu; this is the first step to start the bibliography marking (it should be clicked while keeping the cursor at the beginning of the reference list). After the marking is complete, the reference element runs all the options under the “Cross-Linking” menu.

For accuracy check of the structured paper, user can run the option Manuscript Validation. It informs the user of the wrong or missing values in the paper. The user must correct the paper as per validation messages and rerun Manuscript Validation.

Now, to generate the required layout of the paper, the user should select one of the template styles under the Define Template Style option (choose the required layout design, i.e. choose between Journals and Proceedings).

∗Article Title Footnote needs to be captured as Title Note
†Author Footnote to be captured as Author Note

Permission to make digital or hard copies of part or all of this work for personal or classroom use is granted without fee provided that copies are not made or distributed for profit or commercial advantage and that copies bear this notice and the full citation on the first page. Copyrights for third-party components of this work must be honored. For all other uses, contact the owner/author(s).

Some specific values are required to create a standard layout by choosing a template for the journals or proceedings. So once the user chooses one of the template layout styles, the respective Journal or Conference details dialog box (i.e. journal/conference acronym, DOI, ISBN, copyright, year, etc.) will appear as a prompt during the Define Template Style functionality. The user should fill these values, after which the template creates the desired layout of the paper. The user can now create a PDF of his/her manuscript using the “Save as PDF” option.

If the user is adding any new data, they should make sure to style it as per the instructions provided in previous sections. Carry out the steps for Cross-linking, Fundref data, adding Document History (specific to journal submission), and finally, Manuscript validation and placing the respective metadata (Bibstrip/copyright text) while applying the required template.
