This legacy template can be used to prepare a research article for submission to OSA's journals Applied Optics, Advances in Optics and Photonics, JOSA A, JOSA B, Optics Letters and Optica. ptics Letters authors and authors of Optica letters and memoranda may use this template for a precise length estimate. Use the shortarticle/true option for Optics Letters and short Optica articles. Note that this template can be run from your own TeX system or within the cloud-based Overleaf system (formerly writeLaTeX). Once your article is complete, you may submit it directly to Prism (the OSA's article tracking system) via the 'Submit to OSA' option in the Overleaf editor. Version 1.4, 2015/10/20: update includes addition of Advances in Optics and Photonics style and update to Optics Letters template to include automatic generation of the two reference list styles (abbreviated and full). Version 1.5, 2016/04/19: update to OCIS code styling. Version 1.6, 2016/08/25: refactored .tex to make it more streamlined and less cluttered. Version 1.7, 2017/12/06: journal titles are automatically abbreviated when using BibTeX. aop.sty Version 1.1, 2017/03/25: AOP manuscripts have a narrower column. Version 1.8, 2018/05/20: OCIS codes are no longer compulsory. Version 1.9, 2018/07/19: The styles/ folder is now renamed legacy-styles. 2019/08/01: Added disclosure information. Version 1.10, 2019/08/05: osajnl.cls is updated to be compatible with latest TeX Live/MikTeX packages. Version 1.11, 2019/09/01: osajnl.cls is updated to be compatible with latest caption package. 2020/06/11: Added optica.sty.

LaTeX manuscripts submitted to OSA journals may use these instructions and this universal template format. The template simplifies manuscript preparation and eases transfer between OSA journals. Applied Optics, JOSA A, JOSA B, Optics Letters, and Optica authors may also use the previous, legacy templates, particularly if a precise length estimate is needed. Authors will still need to adhere to article-length restrictions based on the final, published format. Once your article is complete, you may submit it directly to Prism (the OSA's article tracking system) via the 'Submit to OSA' option in the Overleaf editor.

This LaTeX template (11 June 2020) can be used to prepare a supplementary document for inclusion with submission to OSA's journals. This document, which may include supplementary information such as expanded descriptions of materials and methods, will be published as a PDF linked to the primary article. The supplemental file should only present information that would be useful and worthwhile for the reader, for example, details that would be necessary to reproduce an experiment. The article, however, must be coherent without the supplemental PDF file. Please see the Author Guidelines for Supplementary Materials for more information. Supplementary documents are not copyedited and so should be prepared carefully with the template provided. Note that a coversheet with final article title, author block, publication date, journal branding, and other details will be added to your supplemental document by OSA during production. Do not include such details directly in this document.. Note that this template can be run from your own TeX system or within the cloud-based Overleaf system.

This template is for authors submitting a manuscript to an SPIE journal. The Overleaf template allows journal authors to write, edit, and collaborate online. Authors can then submit the paper to an SPIE journal by downloading the PDF and source files generated from Overleaf. Detailed author guidelines for SPIE journals can be found at http://spie.org/AuthorGuidelines.

All journals use acmsmall with the following exceptions: acmlarge - Large single column format, used for IMWUT, JOCCH, PACMPL, POMACS, TAP acmtog - Large double column format, used for TOG Note: Most proceedings authors will use the "sigconf" proceedings template. If you are unsure which template variant to use, please request clarification from your event or publication contact. Note: A single column version is required for submission and peer review. This template will produce such a version. You can also switch to this layout in any other acmart sample file by changing \documentclass[...]{acmart} to \documentclass[manuscript,screen]{acmart}.

ACM has transitioned to a new authoring template. This new TeX template consolidates the previous eight individual ACM journal and proceedings templates. The templates are updated to the latest software versions, developed to enable accessibility features, and they use a new font set. The new LaTeX package incorporates updated versions of the following ACM templates: ACM Journals: ACM Small, ACM Large, ACM and TOG (also for SIGGRAPH authors publishing in TOG) ACM proceedings templates: ACM Standard and SIGPLAN All journals use acmsmall with the following exceptions: acmlarge - Large single column format, used for IMWUT, JOCCH, PACMPL, POMACS, TAP, PACMHCI acmtog - Large double column format, used for TOG Note: Most proceedings authors will use the "sigconf" proceedings template. If you are unsure which template variant to use, please request clarification from your event or publication contact. Note: A single column version is required for submission and peer review. This can be done by changing the \documentclass[...]{acmart} in this template to \documentclass[manuscript,screen]{acmart}. Before using the 2017 ACM consolidated article template, we strongly suggest that you read the TeX User Guide. Authors who plan to use their own packages should read the longer Implementation Guide. More detailed Instructions for Authors are found at http://www.acm.org/publications/authors/information-for-authors. It is important to provide the proper indexing information from the ACM Computing Classification System (CCS). Accurate semantic tagging provides a reader with quick content reference; facilitates the DL search for related literature; enables several DL topic functions such as aggregated SIG and journal coverage areas; and helps ACM promote your work in other online resources. Once your article is complete, you can use the “Submit to ACM” button at the top of the Overleaf editor bar to quickly download your paper and go straight to the appropriate ACM submission site. For conference proceedings submissions, please refer to the submission guidelines in the relevant call-for-papers or on the event website. For support on using these templates, or on LaTeX in general, please contact the Overleaf team -- we're happy to help.

Please see the ACM Submission Guidelines page for more details on manuscript preparation. This large double column format is used for submissions to ACM Transactions on Graphics (TOG). Once your article is complete, you can use 'Submit to ACM' button at the top of the Overleaf editor bar to quickly download your paper files and go straight to the appropriate ACM submission site.
