John H. Lienhard submitted an update to the
asmejour
package.
Version: 1.27 2025-11-30
License: mit
Summary description: A template for ASME journal papers
Announcement text:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The asmejour class is a template to format preprints in the style of journal
papers published by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers.
This update, when run with LuaLaTeX, meets the UA-2, A-4F, and WTPDF-1
accessibility standards. A CSS style file has been added to improve rendering
in HTML (e.g., at https://ngpdf.com). For accessibility, the most recent
version of LaTeX is needed (2025/11/01 or later).
In addition, minor bugs have been fixed and the code has been updated in
several places. The class no longer loads the subcaption and hologo packages,
and the caption and footmisc packages are loaded only as fallbacks for older
distributions. The minimum recommended platform for asmeconf.cls is TeX Live
2022.
Further details are in the README file.
