LaTeX Style Files

LaTeX style files are now available for use in preparing manuscripts for the INFORMS journals. The downloadable zip files below contain a journal template, style file for submission of papers, BiBTeX style to conform with INFORMS reference styles, and documentation in PDF format.

Essentials should be clear from the journal template, which is a LaTeX file outlining the style with journal-specific options and simple examples that show how to fill in basic information (e.g., title, author(s), affiliation(s), abstract, etc.). One of the enclosed PDF files is a guideline to the INFORMS reference style and includes a comprehensive sample. The main document, "Style-Instructions.pdf," supplies additional information and clarifies some style points mentioned in the journal templates. Included are instructions for setting figures and tables and formatting appendices and references. Some information about special math characters, bold symbols, and equation numbering styles is also presented.
