The extant style files and documentation for authoring AAS Journal articles in LaTeX (circa 1999-2004).
We are soliciting feedback from the astronomy community in advance of a new version of AASTeX. The goals of this new version include: addressing a decade of technological change in LaTeX, supporting authors who now write manuscripts for a 100% digital journal, and supporting new directions in authoring from the AAS Journals Futures Task Force recommendations. Possible topics include but are not limited to:
- document layout (e.g., emulateapj support);
- tables including: deluxetable improvements, sharable table formats;
- graphics including: includegraphics, figure layout and grids, videos;
- bibtex and/or biblatex and/or custom reference implmenetations or similar requests;
- URL linking that works;
- CJK Font support;
- bugs or especially irritating biting insect type annoyances;
In addition to using this repository, you can email the AASTeX team for help or feedback at aastex-help@aas.org or reach us on Twitter @AAS_Publishing.
