It gives you the flexibility to indulge your artistic creativity with 
fonts and the details names, emails, phone numbers, or whatever of the 
authors. These days, we can do so much more in this respect than people 
were able to do with a C/A/T typsetter in the 1970s.


Also, I find that what I have to do for the title, author stuff and 
abstract is often mandated by the journal or conference to which I am

submitting so I need maximum flexibility.

Hi Damian,

not long after yesterday's question I went to sleep. This morning I woke
up thinking "why bother with the macros, just do the layout yourself",
and in the meantime you had written. Your answer was exactly what I
wanted to do.

Thank you very much!

Best regards,

Oliver.

Title woes with mm

2023-12-16 Thread Oliver Corff

Dear All,

I can produce a near approximation of an article title with the mm macro
.MT 4, but there are two problems.

1. The authors appear at the top edge of the paper --- see included
example. I tried several means, like inserting .SP, to no avail.

2. Is there a realistic chance to add an authors' affiliation line
somewhere, or should I include this information, as a work-around in
abstract block?

I tried to manipulate the order of macros at the bottom of
../tmac/mm/4.MT just to see whether I could flip title and author lines,
but the output remained unchanged.

My ideal order would be

Title
Authors
Authors' Affiliations
Abstract

Thank you for your enlightenment,

Oliver.

Auswirkungen von Lärm in Wärmekraftwerken auf das kardiovaskuläre System von Arbeitskräften

.AS
Um die Auswirkungen des Lärms von Wärmekraftwerken auf das kardiovaskuläre System der Arbeitskräfte
zu verstehen, wurden 843 Personen, die Lärm ausgesetzt waren, als Beobachtungsgruppe ausgewählt,
während 183 Personen, die keinem Lärm ausgesetzt waren, als Kontrollgruppe dienten. Es wurde eine
Untersuchung unter Verwendung von Methoden wie Umgebungslärmmessungen und berufsbezogenen
Gesundheitsuntersuchungen durchgeführt. Die statistische Analyse konzentrierte sich auf Blutdruckwerte
und Elektrokardiogramme. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass der Mittel- und Hochfrequenzlärm in einem
Wärmekraftwerk Auswirkungen auf das kardiovaskuläre System der Arbeitskräfte hat. Dies äußert sich
hauptsächlich in einer signifikant höheren Rate von Bluthochdruck und auffälligen Ergebnissen in der
Elektrokardiographie im Vergleich zur Kontrollgruppe ($P < 0.01$). Im Vergleich zur Kontrollgruppe wurde
eine deutliche Zunahme der Detektionsrate von sinuatrialer Arrhythmie und sinuatrialer Bradykardie in der
Beobachtungsgruppe festgestellt (P<0.01), ebenso wie vermehrte Anzeichen von Myokardischämie,
Veränderungen in der ST-Strecke und der T-Welle (P<0.05).
