I’ve recently had the pleasure of updating a recent journal article submission with my list of affiliations. On the article, there are 5 authors, and among them, I am the only one with different affiliations, though I share the other affiliation with the rest of the authors. After some quick googling on how I should perform this, I came up with the following snippet of code that should have worked.
\usepackage{authblk}
\author[1]{Daniel Kopta}
\author[1]{Konstantin Shkurko}
\author[1,2,3]{Josef Spjut}
\author[1]{Erik Brunvand}
\author[1]{Al Davis}
\affil[1]{School of Computing, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, UT, USA\\
\{redacted\}@email.edu}
\affil[2]{NVIDIA Research}
\affil[3]{Department of Engineering, Harvey Mudd College, Claremont, CA, USA}
\renewcommand\Authands{ and }
The authblk
package seems to be beautiful for performing this
function, however it has one problem when used with the other styles
for this particular article. It causes \maketitle
to fail
complaining about some spacing error, and I couldn’t figure out how to
fix it.
Instead, I opted for the poor man’s solution to the problem with the
following set of lines:
\author[D. Kopta et al.]
{D. Kopta$^1$, K. Shkurko$^1$, J. Spjut$^{1,2,3}$,
E. Brunvand$^1$, and A. Davis$^1$
\\
$^1$School of Computing, University of Utah, Salt Lake City,
UT, USA\\
\{redacted\}@email.edu\\
$^2$NVIDIA Research\\
$^3$Department of Engineering, Harvey Mudd College, Claremont,
CA, USA\\
}
This code generates into the following on the pdf.
It’s not as graceful as the authblk
code, but it works and it’s a
simple hack that you only have to do once per article.
