Manifest
|
|
--------
|
|
All files in this release are contained within a second zip file within the
|
|
main zip file called revtex4-2-tds.zip. This contains all of the REVTeX 4.2
|
|
files in the TeX Directory Structure (TDS) layout used with most current TeX
|
|
distributions. Install REVTeX 4.2 by unzipping the files in the appropriate
|
|
place (usually the texmf-local directory of your local TeX installation) and
|
|
running texhash or the equivalent command to index the files. Please consult your
|
|
TeX distribution's guide for installing new packages.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: The only files necessary for running REVTeX 4.2 are those under
|
|
tex/latex/revtex and bibtex/bst/revtex, but it is a good idea to install
|
|
the entire distribution, especially the documentation.

Not Included
|
|
------------
|
|
The following packages are required by REVTeX but are not
|
|
included in this distribution. Please obtain from CTAN
|
|
(Comprehensive TeX Archive Network), e.g. <http://www.ctan.org/>. Direct
|
|
links to the necessary files can be found at <http://journals.aps.org/revtex/>.
|
|
|
|
natbib.dtx - Version 8.31a or later; found in latex/contrib/natbib on CTAN
|
|
natbib.ins - LaTeX this to create natbib.sty and natbib
|
|
documentation from natbib.dtx
|
|
bm.dtx - Bold math style - part of (current!) standard LaTeX2e tools
|
|
bm.sty - generated from bm.dtx by running tools.ins
|
|
textcase.dtx - Found in latex/contrib/textcase on CTAN
|
|
textcase.ins - LaTeX this to generate textcase.sty from textcase.dtx
|
|
url.sty - Found in latex/contrib/misc on CTAN
|
|
|
|
An up-to-date installation of AMS-LaTeX is also required for certain
|
|
documentclass options. Version 2.0 or higher is needed. It is
|
|
available from <http://www.ams.org/tex/>.
|
|
|
|
Recommended styles and packages
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
With REVTeX implemented as a native LaTeX2e document class, users can
|
|
take advantage of many of the well-supported LaTeX2e packages available.
|
|
Here are some that are particularly useful and recommended.
|
|
|
|
longtable.sty for tables running to multiple pages - part of a
|
|
standard LaTeX2e distribution.
|
|
|
|
hyperref.sty for hyperlinking - should work well with REVTeX 4.2.
|
|
|
|
graphics.sty and graphicx.sty for figure inclusion - part of LaTeX2e's
|
|
standard distribution.

Credits
|
|
-------
|
|
David Carlisle created the first draft of REVTeX 4; Arthur Ogawa has
|
|
supported the TeX development versions 4.0 and 4.1. Patrick Daly was so kind
|
|
as to incorporate needed changes into natbib and custom-bib. All worked under
|
|
commission from the APS, with the support of AIP, and was coordinated by Mark
|
|
Doyle, APS. Version 4.2 was initially developed by Aptara Corporation under
|
|
the guidance of Mark Doyle, APS, and Brian Goss, AIP. Development of the final
|
|
version of 4.2 was done by Mark Doyle. The APS is the maintainer of REVTeX,
|
|
and all bugs are our responsibility. Please e-mail feedback to revtex@aps.org.
|
|
|
|
Backwards compatibility
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
The REVTeX 4.2 class file has been named revtex4-2.cls to distinguish it
|
|
from its predecessors. Files prepared under REVTeX 4.0 or 4.1 may need minor
|
|
changes to process under 4.2 and the output may be formatted differently.
|
|
|
|
LaTeX2e requirements
|
|

REVTeX 4 requires:
|
|
LaTeX2e [1996/06/01],
|
|
natbib [2009/11/07]
