SEGTeX is a LaTeX package for geophysical publications. It consists of
- LaTeX2e class files for Geophysics papers, SEG expanded abstracts, etc
- BibTeX style files seg.bst
- BibTeX cumulative bibliography of geophysical publications SEG.bib
- latex2html customizations
Downloading[edit]
Access SEGTeX through its SourceForge project by downloading the latest stable release.
Alternatively, access the current working version by using Git and running
git clone https://github.com/SEGTeX/texmf
You can also browse the GitHub repository.
Installation[edit]
If your LaTeX installation is missing/incomplete, try installing TeX Live first.
To install, put the contents of the texmf folder where LaTeX can find it. Most systems recognize $HOME/texmf as one of the default places. On MacOS X, it can be $HOME/Library/texmf. You may need to run texhash to tell LaTeX about the new files. For more help on texmf, see “Private” installations of files.
Prerequisites[edit]
Some of the required additional LaTeX packages are:
- natbib support for (author,year) bibliography style of natural sciences
Download and Install SEGTEX on Mac[edit]
cd $HOME/Library git clone https://github.com/SEGTEX/texmf sudo port install texlive-latex-extra
SEG expanded abstracts[edit]
SEGTeX includes segabs.cls -- a LaTeX class for generating SEG expanded abstracts. Alternatively, you can download segabs-2015 -- a packaged expanded abstract template.
To generate an expanded abstract without references, as SEG requires, use two LaTeX files: one for the abstract itself and the other for separating pages without references. Examples are segabs_example.ltx and segabs_final.ltx
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{pdfpages}
\begin{document}
\includepdf[pages={1-4}]{segabs_example}
\end{document}
This solution only works with pdflatex.
Alternatively, you can separate pages using an external program.
- In Acrobat Pro, open the PDF file with references, select Document -> Pages -> Extract, and extract the reference page with the delete option (thanks to Norm Bleistein for the tip.)
- Another helpful program is pdftk (PDF toolkit.)
Documentation[edit]
The tex/latex/seg directory contains several example files.
Use the manuscript style to submit papers to Geophysics.
- Manuscript style Geophysics paper geophysics_example geophysics_titlepage geophysics_notitlepage
- Manuscript style Geophysics paper using endfloat geophysics_endfloat
- Manuscript style Geophysics with author information (no double-blind review) geophysics_noblind
- Publication style two-column Geophysics paper geophysics_twolumn
- SEG expanded abstract (with references) segabs_example
- SEG expanded abstract (without references) segabs_final
- Report style paper geophysics_paper
Tips and tricks[edit]
- Equations, citation commands, etc. don't work inside \old.
Enclose citations in \mbox: Instead of \old{wrong citation \cite{wrong}}, use \old{wrong citation \mbox{\cite{wrong}}}.
Enclose equations in \parbox or minipage: Instead of
\old{wrong equation
\begin{equation}
2*2 = 5
\end{equation}}
use
\old{wrong equation \\
\begin{minipage}{\textwidth}
\begin{equation}
2*2 = 5
\end{equation}
\end{minipage}}
or
\old{wrong equation \\
\parbox{\textwidth}{
\begin{equation}
2*2 = 5
\end{equation}
}}
\parbox seems to work better with \eqnarray.
Thanks to Brad Artman and James Gunning for reporting this problem.
Communication[edit]
The SEGTeX development is discussed at the SEGTeX mailing list maintained by Joe Dellinger.
Reproducible papers[edit]
SEGTeX is used in the Madagascar package to produce reproducible research papers.
See a presentation on LaTeX and Web tools from the RSF School and Workshop, Vancouver 2006.
