1. v1.3
   

   v0.1 to 1.3 : JAC2000.cls
   Special thanks to John Jowett and Michel Goossens from CERN and
   Martin Comyn at TRIUMF for their significant contributions to
   this class file over the period 1996 to 2000.
                                                  John Poole
                                                  March 2000
   

2. v1.4
   

   v1.4 : JAC2001.cls
   JAC2001.cls is a modified version of JAC2000.cls to produce indented
   first paragraphs after section, subsection and subsubsection headings.
                                                  Martin Comyn  April 2001
   

3. v1.5
   

   v1.5 : JAC2003.cls
   This is a modified version of JAC2003.cls to adjust space around
   section and subsection headers to be more consistent with JACoW Word
   templates.                                     Todd Satogata  March 2011
   

4. v1.6
   

   v 1.6 : jacow.cls
   This is a complectly rewritten version of JAC2003.cls which needs a current
   TeX-System to run.
                                                   Ulrike Fischer, November 2013
   

5. v1.7
   

   v 1.7
   - small change to correct the text block inside JACoW's magic red borders for
     a4paper (aca4); top has been set 18.5mm (19mm is defined in the template but
     leaves descenders outside the lower y margin).
   - duplicate {boxit} removed
                                                   Volker RW Schaa, 14 April 2014
   

6. v1.8
   

   v1.8
   - added setup for \micro sign which disappears when using XeTeX or LuaTeX
     with unicode-math.                             Ulrike Fischer, 21 April 2014
   

7. v1.9
   

   v1.9
   - fixed the pdfLaTeX warnings for the text/math-micro hack
                                                    Ulrike Fischer, 22 April 2014
   

8. v1.91
   

   v1.91
   - Ligatures=TeX switch introduced to accommodate
                                                    Ulrike Fischer, 22 April 2014
   

9. v1.92
   

   v1.92
   - settings for top margin have to be different in A4 and letter to accommodate
     JACoW's PitStop Action List. This was found after receiving Plamen Hopchev's
     email about margins and testing the workflow with cropping the bounding box
     which starts at the lower left edge and not at the top (see graphic JACpic_mc
     in the template for measures).
                                                   Volker RW Schaa, 29 April 2014
   

10. v1.93
    

    v1.93
    - setting the bottom margin (19mm) without top solves the problem for different
      A4/Letter settings. This was already the default in v1.6. Pointed out by
      Plamen Hopchev. To accommodate the descenders the bottom margin has been set
      to 56pt now.
                                                      Volker RW Schaa, 01 May 2014
    

11. v1.94
    

    v1.94
    - the micro sign in UTF-8 prevents ASCII format of the cls file. Ulrike pointed
      out a hack in http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/172968/hide-notation-from-pdftex
      which is now introduced.
                                                      Volker RW Schaa, 02 May 2014
    

12. v1.95
    

    v1.95
    - only change to the version 1.94 are the extended documentation and license
      statement (lppl1.3c) as preparation for publication on CTAN.
                                                      Volker RW Schaa, 02 May 2014
    

13. v1.96
    

    v1.96
    - modification of bibatex style information. Since the JACoW template Feb-2016
      the bibliography requires the IEEEtran style. Heine provided an adapted
      version using the required values of the template:
      + ieee biblatex style instead of numeric-compv
      + doi field is cleared for all entries
      + et al. is used when there are > 6 authors (maxnames=6). In that case,
        only the first author is mentioned (minnames=1)
      + url field is cleared for articles and inproceedings
      + giveninits=true reduces all given names to initials
                                               Heine Dølrath Thomsen, 30 June 2016
    

14. v2.00
    

    v2.00
    - after using v1.96 during conferences where DOIs/URLs were present in biblio-
      graphic records, the following changes to Heine's version have been made:
      + doi field allowed
      + url field allowed
                                                    Volker RW Schaa, 02 May 2014
    

15. v2.1
    

    v2.1 new options introduced
    flushend: new: keeplastbox
    siunitx:  new: binary-units=true
    BibLaTeX: changed: style=ieee => bibstyle=ieee, citestyle=numeric-comp
              new: dashed=false
              removed: doi=false
                                                    Volker RW Schaa, 02 May 2014
    

16. v2.2
    

    v2.2
    - adapted to the changes of template version 2018-02
    - made this one official
                                                     Volker RW Schaa, 23 Feb 2018
    

17. v2.3
    

    v2.3
    - font for tt switched to newtxtt with option zerostyle=d (dotted 0)
                                                     Volker RW Schaa, 15 Jan 2019
    

18. v2.4
    

    v2.4
    - version 2.3 did not work for XeTeX/LuaTeX, therefore font change using
      \def\UrlFont and switching the fontencoding to T1 (suggested by Ulrike Fischer)
    - package amsmath included to provide
                                                     Volker RW Schaa, 01 Apr 2019
    

19. v2.5
    

    v2.5
    - flushend dropped the option keeplastbox, therefore removed from jacow package
      option list
    - Option "binary-units" has been removed from siunitx release.
    - Option "detect-mode" has been deprecated in this (siunitx) release: v3.0.32
           Use "mode=match" as a replacement.
    - Option "detect-weight" has been deprecated in this (siunitx) release: v3.0.32
           Use "reset-text-series=false, text-series-to-math=true" as a replacement.
    - fixltx2e is not required with releases after 2015
                                                     Volker RW Schaa, 14 Oct 2021
    

20. v2.6
    

     v2.6
    - ifluatex/ifxetex dropped for iftex
                                                     Volker RW Schaa, 11 Nov 2021
    

21. v2.7
    

     v2.7
    - added some biblatex macros to achieve closer JACoW reference formatting
      than standard ieeetran
                                                     Volker RW Schaa, 02 Feb 2022
    

22. v2.8
    

     v2.8
    - removes the (non)stretchability \bibitemsep{0pt} from tests (oversight in v2.7)
    - introduced the page setting by geometry to JACoW paper size which wasn't
      working in earlier version of jacow.cls due to the necessary offset using "pt".
      With Zhichu Chen's suggestion of using "bp" instead of "pt", Ivan's JACoW utils
      does not complain anymore, and the /Mediabox is correctly shown in Acrobat and
      PitStop.
           paperheight  792.0 bp   794.97 pt [794.96208 pt]
           paperwidth   595.0 bp   597.23 pt [597.22530 pt]
      Currently I have not found where in a PDF it's defined
      whether (media/crop box) values are "pt" or "bp".
                                          Zhichu Chen, Volker RW Schaa, 10 Jun 2022
    

23. v2.9
    

     v2.9
    - remove the math-micro option from siunitx as it was deprecated.
                                                       Volker RW Schaa, 12 Jun 2022
    

24. v2.10
    

     v2.10
    - added Zhichu's switch between version of siunitx (older than 2021-05-17}.
                                          Zhichu Chen, Volker RW Schaa, 15 Jun 2022
    

25. v2.11
    

     v2.11
    - remove the (empty) package textcase and substituted it by
      \let\MakeTextUppercase\MakeUppercase
                                                       Volker RW Schaa, 17 Jul 2022
    

26. v2.12
    

     v2.12
    - the new changes to LaTeX3 (2022-06-01) break the old "\@nonchangecase" command
          \AddToNoCaseChangeList{command} added
                                        Ulrike Fischer, Volker RW Schaa, 04 Aug 2022
    

27. v2.13
    

     v2.13
    - placement of DOI changed: if it fits on the line OK, otherwise use a new line
    - period/fullstop placed in front of DOI
                                                           Zhichu Chen, 05 Aug 2022
    

28. v2.14
    

     v2.14
    - `lineno` with "minted" are not supported
    - place a "\\" rather than \par for linebreak in the definition of \placedoi to
       et the vertical spacing right
                                                           Zhichu Chen, 06 Aug 2022
    

29. v2.15
    

    v2.15
    - all intermediate changes combined in this version
    - check for \AddToNoCaseChangeList instead of \IfFormatAtLeastTF{2022/06/01}
                                          Zhichu Chen, Volker RW Schaa, 09 Aug 2022

       \\
     \fi
     \unhbox\doi@box
   }
   

2. biblatex style
   

   If biblatex is not activated:

   \RequirePackage{cite}
   % Redefine to use smaller fonts
   \def\thebibliography#1{\setlength{\itemsep}{0pt}\setlength{\parsep}{0pt}%
     \ifjacowrefpage\clearpage\fi
     \section*{REFERENCES\@mkboth
       {REFERENCES}{REFERENCES}}\small\list
     {[\arabic{enumi}]}{\settowidth\labelwidth{[#1]}\leftmargin\labelwidth
       \advance\leftmargin\labelsep
       \usecounter{enumi}}
     \def\newblock{\hskip .11em plus .33em minus .07em}
     \sloppy\clubpenalty4000\widowpenalty4000
     \sfcode`\.=1000\relax}
   \let\endthebibliography=\endlist
   

   Otherwise,

   1. Import biblatex
      
      1. v2.00
         

         \RequirePackage[style=ieee,sorting=none,giveninits=true,doi=false,maxnames=6,minnames=1]{biblatex}
         

      2. v2.1
         

         \RequirePackage[style=ieee,sorting=none,giveninits=true,maxnames=6,minnames=1]{biblatex}
         

      3. v2.2
         

         \RequirePackage[bibstyle=ieee,citestyle=numeric-comp,dashed=false,sorting=none,giveninits=true,maxnames=6,minnames=1]{biblatex}
         

   2. bib macros
      

      \renewbibmacro*{url+urldate}{%
        \iffieldundef{url}
          {}
          {\printfield{url}%
            \nopunct
          }%
        }%
      

      format venue, event, date without round brackets https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/446732/biblatex-field-venueeventdate-without-round-brackets

      \renewbibmacro*{event+venue+date}{%
        \printfield{eventtitle}%
        \newunit
        \printfield{eventtitleaddon}%
        \newunit
        \printfield{venue}%
        \setunit*{\addcomma\space}%
        \printeventdate%
        \newunit%
      }
      

      \renewbibmacro*{volume+number+eid}{%
        \printfield{volume}%
        \newunit
        \printfield{number}%
        \newunit
        \printfield{eid}%
      }
      

      print url if no doi

      \renewbibmacro*{doi+eprint+url}{%
        \addperiod\printfield{doi}%
        \newunit\newblock%
        \iftoggle{bbx:eprint}{%
            \usebibmacro{eprint}%
          }{}%
          \newunit\newblock%
          \iffieldundef{doi}{%
              \usebibmacro{url+urldate}}%
            {}%
          }
      

   3. field formats
      

      url

      \DeclareFieldFormat{url}{\url{#1}}
      

      eprint

      \DeclareFieldFormat{eprint}{#1}
      

      format doi: as part of the link using the same font

      \DeclareFieldFormat{doi}{%
        \ifhyperref
          {\href{https://doi.org/#1}{\nolinkurl{#1}}}
          {\placedoi{\nolinkurl{doi:#1}}}%
        }
      

      eid

      \DeclareFieldFormat{eid}{%
        {paper #1}%
      }
      

      format ISSN like URLs

      \DeclareFieldFormat{issn}{%
        {\texttt{ISSN:#1}}%
      }
      

   4. bib extras
      

      %% when to activate this? Paper format acus/letter
      \DefineBibliographyExtras{american}{\stdpunctuation} % mod
      % Drop urls for article and inproceedings entries
      % 2.7
      % check https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/6743/biblatex-changing-the-order-of-entries

      % -------------------------------------
      

   5. bib customisation
      

      % 
      % if BibLaTeX is used
      % 
      % modify macros so the formatted output corresponds to JACoW's idea of IEEEtran
      

      set vertical distance between items

      \setlength\bibitemsep{3pt plus 1.5pt minus 0.5pt}
      

      % \setlength\bibitemsep{0pt}
      \setlength\bibparsep{0pt}
      \setlength\biblabelsep{5pt}
      

      remove stretchability from biblatex URLs/DOIs

      \toks0\expandafter{\biburlsetup}\edef\biburlsetup{\the\toks0 \Urlmuskip =0mu\relax}
      

      Removing period after DOI

      \renewcommand*{\finentrypunct}{\ifboolexpr{togl {bbx:doi} and not test {\iffieldundef{doi}}}{}{\addperiod}}
      

      make sure that there is no break between initial and lastname and thinspaces between muliple initials

      \renewcommand*\bibnamedelimd{~}
      \renewcommand\bibinitdelim{\addnbthinspace}
      

      Clean up the bibtex rather than editing it for extensive JACoW BibTeX records

      \AtEveryBibitem{%
        \clearlist{address}
        \clearfield{date}
        \clearfield{eprint}
        \clearfield{isbn}
        \clearfield{issn}
        % 
        % use/print "note" if "booktitle" is not given: example "data for this conference"
        % 
        \iffieldundef{booktitle}{}{\clearfield{note}}
          \clearlist{location}
          \clearfield{month}
          \clearfield{series}
          \ifentrytype{book}{}{% Remove publisher and editor except for books
              \clearlist{publisher}
              \clearname{editor}
            }
          }
      

      Set tolerance before the environment.

      \AtBeginBibliography{\small\clubpenalty4000\widowpenalty4000}%
      

      \ifjacowrefpage\preto\blx@bibliography{\clearpage}\fi
