Has anyone out there used the REVTEX format produced by the American Physical Society (APS) for author-prepared compuscripts submitted for publication in Physical Review? If so, I have a couple of questions. (I am relatively a novice in TeX/LaTeX, having been actively using LaTeX for about a year now; thus my questions may have obvious answers to the experts among us.) (1) When submitting manuscripts to Physical Review, figures and tables are traditionally submitted on separate pages at the end of the manuscript. In REVTEX, hasn't APS accomplished this by completely redefining the \figure and \table environments so that they no longer produce floating environments? (2) I find REVTEX convenient for all the other things it does (superscripted citations, APS standard figure caption numbering, etc.). If I wish to use REVTEX for my other document production and I wish to include floating figures and/or tables while using REVTEX, can I easily do so? How? I am also submitting these questions directly to APS, but I thought this topic might be interesting to other physicists. I will post answers I receive. Thanks . L.
