INTRODUCTION

ACM’s consolidated article template, introduced in 2017, provides a consistent LATEX style for use across ACM publications,and incorporates accessibility and metadata-extraction functionality necessary for future Digital Library endeavors.
Numerous ACM and SIG-specific LATEX templates have been examined, and their unique features incorporated into thissingle new template.
If you are new to publishing with ACM, this document is a valuable guide to the process of preparing your work for
publication. If you have published with ACM before, this document provides insight and instruction into more recentchanges to the article template.

Trovato and Tobin, et al.

The “acmart” document class can be used to prepare articles for any ACM publication — conference or journal, andfor any stage of publication, from review to final “camera-ready” copy, to the author’s own version, with very few
changes to the source.
2

TEMPLATE OVERVIEW

As noted in the introduction, the “acmart” document class can be used to prepare many different kinds of documentation— a double-blind initial submission of a full-length technical paper, a two-page SIGGRAPH Emerging Technologies
abstract, a “camera-ready” journal article, a SIGCHI Extended Abstract, and more — all by selecting the appropriate
template style and template parameters.
This document will explain the major features of the document class. For further information, the LATEX User’s Guide
is available from https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template.
2.1

Template Styles

The primary parameter given to the “acmart” document class is the template style which corresponds to the kind of
publication or SIG publishing the work. This parameter is enclosed in square brackets and is a part of the documentclasscommand:\documentclass[STYLE]{acmart}
Journals use one of three template styles. All but three ACM journals use the acmsmall template style:• acmsmall: The default journal template style.
• acmlarge: Used by JOCCH and TAP.
• acmtog: Used by TOG.
The majority of conference proceedings documentation will use the acmconf template style.
• acmconf: The default proceedings template style.
• sigchi: Used for SIGCHI conference articles.
• sigchi-a: Used for SIGCHI “Extended Abstract” articles.
• sigplan: Used for SIGPLAN conference articles.
2.2

Template Parameters

In addition to specifying the template style to be used in formatting your work, there are a number of template parameterswhich modify some part of the applied template style. A complete list of these parameters can be found in the LATEX
User’s Guide.
Frequently-used parameters, or combinations of parameters, include:• anonymous,review: Suitable for a “double-blind” conference submission. Anonymizes the work and includes
line numbers. Use with the \acmSubmissionID command to print the submission’s unique ID on each page of
the work.
• authorversion: Produces a version of the work suitable for posting by the author.
• screen: Produces colored hyperlinks.
This document uses the following string as the first command in the source file:\documentclass[manuscript,screen]{acmart}

MODIFICATIONS

Modifying the template — including but not limited to: adjusting margins, typeface sizes, line spacing, paragraph andlist definitions, and the use of the \vspace command to manually adjust the vertical spacing between elements of yourwork — is not allowed.
Your document will be returned to you for revision if modifications are discovered.
4

TYPEFACES

The “acmart” document class requires the use of the “Libertine” typeface family. Your TEX installation should include
this set of packages. Please do not substitute other typefaces. The “lmodern” and “ltimes” packages should not be used,as they will override the built-in typeface families.

5

TITLE INFORMATION

The title of your work should use capital letters appropriately - https://capitalizemytitle.com/ has useful rules forcapitalization. Use the title command to define the title of your work. If your work has a subtitle, define it with thesubtitle command. Do not insert line breaks in your title.
If your title is lengthy, you must define a short version to be used in the page headers, to prevent overlapping text.
The title command has a “short title” parameter:\title[short title]{full title}
6

AUTHORS AND AFFILIATIONSEach author must be defined separately for accurate metadata identification. Multiple authors may share one affiliation.
Authors’ names should not be abbreviated; use full first names wherever possible. Include authors’ e-mail addresses
whenever possible.
Grouping authors’ names or e-mail addresses, or providing an “e-mail alias,” as shown below, is not acceptable:\author{Brooke Aster, David Mehldau}\email{dave,judy,steve@university.edu}\email{firstname.lastname@phillips.org}
The authornote and authornotemark commands allow a note to apply to multiple authors — for example, if thefirst two authors of an article contributed equally to the work.
If your author list is lengthy, you must define a shortened version of the list of authors to be used in the page headers,
to prevent overlapping text. The following command should be placed just after the last \author{} definition:\renewcommand{\shortauthors}{McCartney, et al.}Omitting this command will force the use of a concatenated list of all of the authors’ names, which may result inoverlapping text in the page headers.
The article template’s documentation, available at https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template, has acomplete explanation of these commands and tips for their effective use.

RIGHTS INFORMATION

Authors of any work published by ACM will need to complete a rights form. Depending on the kind of work, and therights management choice made by the author, this may be copyright transfer, permission, license, or an OA (openaccess) agreement.
Regardless of the rights management choice, the author will receive a copy of the completed rights form once it
has been submitted. This form contains LATEX commands that must be copied into the source document. When the
document source is compiled, these commands and their parameters add formatted text to several areas of the final
document:• the “ACM Reference Format” text on the first page.
• the “rights management” text on the first page.
• the conference information in the page header(s).
Rights information is unique to the work; if you are preparing several works for an event, make sure to use thecorrect set of commands with each of the works.
8

CCS CONCEPTS AND USER-DEFINED KEYWORDS

Two elements of the “acmart” document class provide powerful taxonomic tools for you to help readers find your workin an online search.
The ACM Computing Classification System — https://www.acm.org/publications/class-2012 — is a set of classifiers
and concepts that describe the computing discipline. Authors can select entries from this classification system, via
https://dl.acm.org/ccs/ccs.cfm, and generate the commands to be included in the LATEX source.
User-defined keywords are a comma-separated list of words and phrases of the authors’ choosing, providing a more
flexible way of describing the research being presented.
CCS concepts and user-defined keywords are required for all short- and full-length articles, and optional for two-page
abstracts.
9

SECTIONING COMMANDSYour work should use standard LATEX sectioning commands: section, subsection, subsubsection, and paragraph.
They should be numbered; do not remove the numbering from the commands.
Simulating a sectioning command by setting the first word or words of a paragraph in boldface or italicized text is
not allowed.
10

TABLES

The “acmart” document class includes the “booktabs” package — https://ctan.org/pkg/booktabs — for preparing
high-quality tables.
Table captions are placed above the table.
Because tables cannot be split across pages, the best placement for them is typically the top of the page nearest
their initial cite. To ensure this proper “floating” placement of tables, use the environment table to enclose the table’s
contents and the table caption. The contents of the table itself must go in the tabular environment, to be aligned
properly in rows and columns, with the desired horizontal and vertical rules. Again, detailed instructions on tabularmaterial are found in the LATEX User’s Guide.

Immediately following this sentence is the point at which Table 1 is included in the input file; compare the placementof the table here with the table in the printed output of this document.
To set a wider table, which takes up the whole width of the page’s live area, use the environment table* to enclose
the table’s contents and the table caption. As with a single-column table, this wide table will “float” to a location deemed
more desirable. Immediately following this sentence is the point at which Table 2 is included in the input file; again, it
is instructive to compare the placement of the table here with the table in the printed output of this document.
11

MATH EQUATIONS

You may want to display math equations in three distinct styles: inline, numbered or non-numbered display. Each of
the three are discussed in the next sections.
11.1

Inline (In-text) Equations

A formula that appears in the running text is called an inline or in-text formula. It is produced by the math environment,
which can be invoked with the usual \begin . . . \end construction or with the short form $ . . . $. You can use anyof the symbols and structures, from 𝛼 to 𝜔, available in LATEX [21]; this section will simply show a few examples ofin-text equations in context. Notice how this equation: lim𝑛→∞ 𝑥 = 0, set here in in-line math style, looks slightly
different when set in display style. (See next section).
11.2

Display Equations

A numbered display equation—one set off by vertical space from the text and centered horizontally—is produced by theequation environment. An unnumbered display equation is produced by the displaymath environment.
Again, in either environment, you can use any of the symbols and structures available in LATEX; this section will justgive a couple of examples of display equations in context. First, consider the equation, shown as an inline equation
above:
lim 𝑥 = 0
𝑛→∞

Notice how it is formatted somewhat differently in the displaymath environment. Now, we’ll enter an unnumberedequation:
∞
∑︁

𝑥 +1

𝑖=0

and follow it with another numbered equation:∞∑︁∫ 𝜋 +2
𝑥𝑖 =

𝑓

(2)

0

𝑖=0

just to demonstrate LATEX’s able handling of numbering.
12

FIGURESThe “figure” environment should be used for figures. One or more images can be placed within a figure. If your figurecontains third-party material, you must clearly identify it as such, as shown in the example below.

Fig. 1. 1907 Franklin Model D roadster. Photograph by Harris & Ewing, Inc. [Public domain], via Wikimedia Commons. (https://goo.gl/VLCRBB).

The Name of the Title is Hope

Woodstock ’18, June 03–05, 2018, Woodstock, NY

Your figures should contain a caption which describes the figure to the reader. Figure captions go below the figure.
Your figures should also include a description suitable for screen readers, to assist the visually-challenged to better
understand your work.
Figure captions are placed below the figure.
12.1

The “Teaser Figure”

A “teaser figure” is an image, or set of images in one figure, that are placed after all author and affiliation information,and before the body of the article, spanning the page. If you wish to have such a figure in your article, place thecommand immediately before the \maketitle command:\begin{teaserfigure}\includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{sampleteaser}\caption{figure caption}\Description{figure description}\end{teaserfigure}
13

CITATIONS AND BIBLIOGRAPHIESThe use of TBibEX for the preparation and formatting of one’s references is strongly recommended. Authors’ names should
be complete — use full first names (“Donald E. Knuth”) not initials (“D. E. Knuth”) — and the salient identifying featuresof a reference should be included: title, year, volume, number, pages, article DOI, etc.
The bibliography is included in your source document with these two commands, placed just before the \end{document}command:\bibliographystyle{ACM-Reference-Format}\bibliography{bibfile}where “bibfile” is the name, without the “.bib” suffix, of the TB
ibEX file.
Citations and references are numbered by default. A small number of ACM publications have citations and references
formatted in the “author year” style; for these exceptions, please include this command in the preamble (before“\begin{document}”) of your LATEX source:\citestyle{acmauthoryear}
Some examples. A paginated journal article [2], an enumerated journal article [8], a reference to an entire issue [7], amonograph (whole book) [20], a monograph/whole book in a series (see 2a in spec. document) [14], a divisible-booksuch as an anthology or compilation [10] followed by the same example, however we only output the series if thevolume number is given [11] (so Editor00a’s series should NOT be present since it has no vol. no.), a chapter in a divisible
book [32], a chapter in a divisible book in a series [9], a multi-volume work as book [19], an article in a proceedings (ofa conference, symposium, workshop for example) (paginated proceedings article) [3], a proceedings article with all
possible elements [31], an example of an enumerated proceedings article [12], an informally published work [13], adoctoral dissertation [6], a master’s thesis: [4], an online document / world wide web resource [1, 25, 33], a video game
(Case 1) [24] and (Case 2) [23] and [22] and (Case 3) a patent [30], work accepted for publication [27], ’YYYYb’-test for
prolific author [28] and [29]. Other cites might contain ’duplicate’ DOI and URLs (some SIAM articles) [18]. Boris /Barbara Beeton: multi-volume works as books [16] and [15]. A couple of citations with DOIs: [17, 18]. Online citations:[33–35]. Artifacts: [26] and [5].

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

Identification of funding sources and other support, and thanks to individuals and groups that assisted in the researchand the preparation of the work should be included in an acknowledgment section, which is placed just before thereference section in your document.
This section has a special environment:\begin{acks}...
\end{acks}
so that the information contained therein can be more easily collected during the article metadata extraction phase, andto ensure consistency in the spelling of the section heading.
Authors should not prepare this section as a numbered or unnumbered \section; please use the “acks” environment.
15

APPENDICES

If your work needs an appendix, add it before the “\end{document}” command at the conclusion of your source
document.
Start the appendix with the “appendix” command:\appendix
and note that in the appendix, sections are lettered, not numbered. This document has two appendices, demonstrating
the section and subsection identification method.
16

SIGCHI EXTENDED ABSTRACTS

The “sigchi-a” template style (available only in LATEX and not in Word) produces a landscape-orientation formatted
article, with a wide left margin. Three environments are available for use with the “sigchi-a” template style, andproduce formatted output in the margin:• sidebar: Place formatted text in the margin.
• marginfigure: Place a figure in the margin.
• margintable: Place a table in the margin.
