Overview

This class provides a LaTeX template to format extended abstracts for the Pacific Rim Thermal Engineering Conference (PRTEC), which is sponsored by ASTFE, JSME, and KSME.

Files in this distribution are:

  README.md           --  this file
  prtec.cls           --  the class file

The .tex and .cls files are commented and should be self-explanatory.

• matches PRTEC's citation formats
• uses the newtxmath and newtxtext font packages, enabling many math and text features

• supports use of pdf bookmarks and the hyperref package
