About

Author support service provides LaTeX style files and *.tex file templates designed for International Press journal Beijing Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics (BPAM) articles.

Package content

The following files are given in the repository (or directly in *.zip archive):

• ipart.cls, ipart-layout-bpam.sty - LaTeX style files designed for International Press journal articles. Please do not change them. These files are already loaded in the respective template files;
• plain.bst - suggested BibTeX¹ related bibliography style. If your bibliography is structured in BibTeX format, loading your *.bib file and provided BibTeX style allows you to get the final format of the bibliography.
• bpam-template.tex - topmatter template (should be used for article preparation);
• bpam-sample.tex - journal sample article;
• bpam-sample.pdf - journal sample article (PDF file);

Setup

• Clone the repository or download the *.zip archive. Rename the package to <your-project-name>.
• Install ipart.cls, ipart-layout-bpam.sty, plain.bst in your TeX system (suggested directory: ipart).
• Use the file bpam-template.tex to start your article as a template.
• Use the file bpam-sample.tex as a reference for how to prepare a topmatter of your article.

Recommended usage of ipart package

Use bpam-template.tex as a template.

Document class options

For the BPAM journal bpam option must be set in a \documentclass[]{ipart}:

\documentclass[bpam]{ipart}

For bibliography references output and citations a natbib package is loaded by default with the following options:

\usepackage[numbers,square]{natbib}

It provides numbered citations.

In case author-year citation is required, provide the authoryear option:

\documentclass[bpam,authoryear]{ipart}

All natbib package options can be provided in this way.

In case some other bibliography package is used which is not compatible with natbib package, one can disable the latter with the option nonatbib:

\documentclass[bpam,nonatbib]{ipart}

The preamble of your LaTeX document should look like this:

\documentclass[bpam]{ipart}
