John H. Lienhard submitted an update to the
asmeconf
package.
Version number: 1.38 2024-08-01
License type: mit
Summary description: A LaTeX template for ASME conference papers
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The asmeconf class is a LaTeX template to format conference papers published by the
American Society of Mechanical Engineers.
The layout and references styles of asmeconf follow the styles requested by ASME in 2024.
Hyperlinks and pdf features are fully supported. The class includes a modern BibTeX
style, asmeconf.bst, that supports online sources, URL and DOI fields, and generates
current reference styles. This .bst can replace the old asmems4.bst.
Changes in this version include: a variety of edits and updates to the underlying code;
fixes for several issues related to language support, particularly under LuaLaTeX;
rescaling the Latin fonts under LuaLaTeX to match those in pdfTeX; and the addition of a
few new commands. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
