Document Classes ⇒ Warning when compiling with custom Class

[Jaraqui]

Hi,

I need your kind help on how to fix the following warning:

You have requested document class `ws-jcsc', but the document class provides `epsfig'.

I´ve found a similar post here but the solution was not useful for this case. The attachments are the files that generate this warning.

I suspect it's because you're inputting a package file using \InputIfFileExists instead of loading it with \RequirePackage. However, epsfig is obsolete, so I recommend you just use \RequirePackage{graphicx} (which is what epsfig now uses anyway).

Hi,

I am trying not to change the .sty file because it is provided by the journal that I am submiting an article.

But I executed your recommendation and the warning message didn´t disapear.

Thank you anyway Nicola

Okay. The journal needs to fix it, but it can be difficult to persuade journals to do that. (Sometimes the class/package author is no longer available.)

But I executed your recommendation and the warning message didn´t disapear.

I'm not sure what's gone wrong, but it's only a warning and since you can't modify the class, you can ignore it.

The important is that these two explanations that you gave me clarified the problem and allowed me to understand that is a minor problem (sometimes warnings are very important as you know!).

Because of this I will thank you again Nicola, and tag the problem as solved.
