Text Formatting ⇒ format per conference paper template

[yimam]

Hello there,

I'm submitting a paper to a conference. They only provide an MS Word template for the paper format/ layout. However, I wish to use latex. Being a new learner of Latex, I would appreciate some help from experienced users in achieving the following format. BTW, I'm using the article document class.

* Headings and layout
Major headings are typed bold in 14pt upper case (capital letters), with two lines spaces above and none below.

* Minor headings
Minor headings are in 12pt bold type, not indented, with one line of space above and none below. Do not number headings.

* Sub-headings. Sub-headings are typed in 12pt bold italic, not indented, with the paragraph running on after a full stop; there is one line of space above.

* In the first page include a running heading at the top, 1.25 cm from the paper edge, with the following underlined text across the page from margin to margin: “Workshop YYY”.
Include a running header at the top of each page, 1.25 cm from the paper edge. On odd pages, place the author’s name at the left margin and the page number at the right margin. On even pages, place the page number at the left margin and the paper title at the right margin.

* The title of the paper should appear centred in 16pt typeface as shown on the first page of this file. Allow one line space below the title. Leave one line space above the title.
The author’s name(s) should appear centred in normal typeface, separated by commas and with one line space above and below. Indicate the corresponding author with an asterisk (*).
The author’s affiliation(s) and full postal address(es) should be set out using centred 12pt italics typeface.
Show the corresponding author’s E-mail address in 10pt italics below the affiliation(s).
