Begin your introductory material before the first section heading. \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize Avoid style markup (except sparingly for emphasis). \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize Avoid using explicit vertical or horizontal space. \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize Captions are short and go below figures but above tables. \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize The tablenotes or figurenotes environments may be used below tables or figures, respectively, as demonstrated below. \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize If you have difficulties with the mathtime package, adjust the package options appropriately for your platform. If you can't get it to work, just remove the package or see our technical support document online (please refer to the author instructions). \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize If you are using an appendix, it goes last, after the bibliography. Use regular section headings to make the appendix headings. \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize If you are not using an appendix, you may delete the appendix command and sample appendix section heading. \end_layout \begin_layout Itemize Either the natbib package or the harvard package may be used with bibtex. To include one of these packages, uncomment the appropriate usepackage command above. Note: you can't use both packages at once or compile-time errors will result. \end_layout \begin_layout Section First Section in Body \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Sample figure: \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Float figure wide false sideways false status open \begin_layout Plain Layout Figure here. \end_layout \begin_layout Plain Layout \begin_inset Caption Standard \begin_layout Plain Layout Caption for figure below. \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Figure Notes Figure notes without optional leadin. \end_layout \begin_layout Plain Layout \end_layout \begin_layout Figure Notes \begin_inset Argument 1 status open \begin_layout Plain Layout Source \end_layout \end_inset Figure notes with optional leadin (Source, in this case). \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Standard Sample table: \end_layout \begin_layout Standard \begin_inset Float table wide false sideways false status open \begin_layout Plain Layout \begin_inset Caption Standard \begin_layout Plain Layout Caption for table above. \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Plain Layout \begin_inset Tabular \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout Heading 1 \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout Heading 2 \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout Row 1 \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout 1 \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout 2 \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout Row 2 \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout 3 \end_layout \end_inset \begin_inset Text \begin_layout Plain Layout 4 \end_layout \end_inset \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Table Notes Table notes environment without optional leadin. \end_layout \begin_layout Plain Layout \end_layout \begin_layout Table Notes \begin_inset Argument 1 status open \begin_layout Plain Layout Source \end_layout \end_inset Table notes environment with optional leadin (Source, in this case). \end_layout \end_inset \end_layout \begin_layout Algorithm An example Algorithm \end_layout \begin_layout Standard References here (manual or Bib\SpecialChar TeX ).
