Document Classes ⇒ elsarticle | No DVI Output

[diaa_abidou]

I am working on compiling a LaTeX article in the format required by Elsevier. However, it worked before good, but now I have a problem of not producing the title, abstract and keyword environments. Except that, all the remaining manuscript can be generated smoothly. I tried to make a minimal example with the same preamble while having only the title, abstract and keyword. This minimal example doesn't generate a dvi output file. Therefore, I attached both the minimal example tex file and its log file to get a help.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

welcome to the board!

For displaying the abstract, you need to use the frontmatter environment. For example:

Code: Select all

Code, edit and compile here:

13
\documentclass[preprint,5p,a4paper,10pt]{elsarticle}
\begin{document}
\begin{frontmatter}
  \title{any title}
  \begin{abstract}
    some abstract
  \end{abstract}
  \begin{keyword}
    something
  \end{keyword}
 \end{frontmatter}
main text
\end{document}
