LaTeX templates and examples — Direct Submission Link

This is a sample file for ACM large trim, 2-column journals, specifically showing an example of a paper for ACM Transactions on Graphics, using acmart.cls v2.14 (2025/06/06). It is provided by the ACM as a template for submissions, and pre-loaded in Overleaf (formerly writeLaTeX) for ease of editing online. 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. Important information regarding submission versions for review: After finalizing the formatting of your paper you must use the option “manuscript” with \documentclass[manuscript]{acmart} command. This will generate the output in single column review format which is required. Accepted manuscripts will be transformed during production to produce properly formatted output accord to the publication specifications. Authors will be provided the opportunity to review and approve the formatted output before the article is published to the ACM Digital Library.

ACM has transitioned to a new authoring template. This new TeX template (acmart v2.14) 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.

Accepted manuscripts will be transformed during production to produce properly formatted output accord to the publication specifications. Authors will be provided the opportunity to review and approve the formatted output before the article is published to the ACM Digital Library. 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.

LaTeX users preparing manuscripts for Optica meetings or conferences should use this template. Comments and questions should be directed to the Optica Conference Papers staff.

LaTeX manuscripts submitted to Optica Publishing Group journals may use these instructions and this universal template format. The template simplifies manuscript preparation and eases transfer between Optica journals. Applied Optics, Journal of Optical Communications and Networking, JOSA A, JOSA B, Optics Letters, Optica and Photonics Research 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 (Optica's article tracking system) via the 'Submit to Optica' option in the Overleaf editor.

This template can be used to approximate final page count for submission to Optica Publishing Group’s journals Applied Optics, Journal of Optical Communications and Networking, JOSA A, JOSA B, Optics Letters, Optica, and Photonics Research. 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. When compiling on your own TeX system, you may need to run bibtex fullrefs additionally to generate the full reference list for certain journal submission types. Once your article is complete, you may submit it directly to Prism (Optica's article tracking system) via the 'Submit to Optica' option in the Overleaf editor. opticajnl.cls v1.0, 2022/06/13: OSA renamed to Optica Publishing Group.

Overleaf and the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) have created this template for authors submitting manuscripts to all 35 ASCE Journals. The template allows authors to easily prepare and edit their manuscripts using Overleaf. Once complete, authors can submit the source files downloaded from Overleaf. To begin writing online, click the “Open as Template” button above. The Overleaf/ASCE template will load. Additional guidelines for preparing submissions are included within the template.
