General ⇒ How to use revtex with Texniccenter

[statusnouveau]

Dear forum,

I am a relatively inexperienced TeX user, who uses Texniccenter in Windows. I would like to write a paper in APS format and am not sure what, exactly, I have to do in order to make this happen. The version of t-center I have installed is 1 Beta 7.01. I have been told that I need revtex and have downloaded the new version. What do I do now? Might it be the case that revtex is already incorporated into the latest version of t-center?

An idiot's guide to making APS format happen in t-center would be brilliant.

Thanks!

The revtex4-1 class is not part of TeXnicCenter (TXC) but of your LaTeX distribution. Make sure that you not only installed TXC, but also for example MiKTeX. TXC is only the environment in which you will edit and compile your documents. Moreover you should use the latest stable version of TXC.


Best regards and welcome to the board

To follow up what localghost said, I just finished writing a JCP paper with revtex. Start your document with:

\documentclass{revtex4-1}
