# EJP/ECP
## DESCRIPTION
"ejpecp" is a LaTeX2e document class for typesetting articles for the
mathematical research periodicals "Electronic Journal of Probability" (EJP)
and "Electronic Communications in Probability" (ECP). The websites of these
electronic journals are https://imstat.org/journals-and-publications/electronic-journal-of-probability/

## FILE LIST
- `sample.tex` - sample article for EJP or ECP (source file)
- `sample.pdf` - sample article for EJP or ECP (PDF compiled)
- `LPPL` - a copy of the LaTeX Project Public License
- `README.md` - this file itself!
- `getmref.py` - Python2 script to add MR URLs in bibliographies
- `ejpecp.dtx` - class source file
- `ejpecp.ins` - class install file
- `ejpecp.pdf` - class documentation
## HOW TO BUILD `ejpecp.cls`
- `pdflatex ejpecp.ins` produces `ejpecp.cls`
- `pdflatex ejpecp.dtx` produces `ejpecp.pdf`
## INSTRUCTIONS FOR EJP-ECP AUTHORS
- You only need `ejpecp.cls`, `sample.tex`, and `sample.pdf`
- Take the time to read `sample.pdf`
- Copy `sample.tex` into `yourname.tex`
- Edit `yourname.tex` (update metadata and the content of the paper)
- Be sure to have `ejpecp.cls` in the same directory (or any dir scanned for `cls`)
- Compile `yourname.tex` with a `pdflatex` engine producing `yourname.pdf`
- More detailed instructions for authors are available on Internet:
- EJP: https://imstat.org/journals-and-publications/electronic-journal-of-probability/
- ECP: https://imstat.org/journals-and-publications/electronic-communications-in-probability/
## DEPENDENCIES
`ejpecp` is a LaTeX2e document class designed to be used with a `pdflatex` engine.
`ejpecp` relies on the following packages: `amsmath`, `amsfonts`, `amssymb`, `amsthm`,
`bera`, `dsfont`, `hyperref`, `geometry`, `graphicx`, `latexsym`, `mathtools`,
`microtype`, `afterpackage`. It was also successfully tested with the next
generation engine `lualatex`.
## TROUBLESHOOTING
- If You get an error after compilation (e.g. in MiKTeX v2.9):
! pdfTeX error (font expansion): auto expansion is only possible with scalable fonts.
Try one of the following:
1. Add _Latin Modern_ font loading lines before the document class line:
\RequirePackage{lmodern}
\RequirePackage[T1]{fontenc}
\documentclass[EJP]{ejpecp}
It will change bitmap _Computer Modern_ fonts with scalable _Latin Modern_ fonts.
2. If 1st step does not solve the problem, then use `nofontexpansion` option:
\documentclass[nofontexpansion,EJP]{ejpecp}
It will turn off font expansion feature of `microtype` package.
**No worries**: font expansion will still be used at production stage.
- If _Bitstream Vera_ font (i.e. `bera` package) is not available in Your TeX distribution, use `nobera` class option and add alternative main document font:
\documentclass[nobera,EJP]{ejpecp}
\usepackage{mathptmx}% URW Nimbus Roman
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
Some suggestions can be found here: https://www.tug.org/FontCatalogue/seriffonts.html
**No worries**: `bera` package will still be used at production stage.
