I'm writing a paper for a conference where they require that the abstrac t and a set of keywords be inserted just after the title and authors, centered on the whole page. I have been using article style on two-column, but this places the abstract in the first column. Can anyone please tell me whether there already exists a style file that might do what I want, and if not how I could go about modifying an existing style file?
