[comp.text.tex] APA style problems

monheit@psych.Stanford.EDU (Mark Monheit) (08/30/90)

Our department requires a Latex style conforming to APA format for
journal submissions.  With minimal TeX/LaTeX knowledge we are
modifying article.sty to produce the required ugliness, but have run
into several problems:

    Each figure must go on a separate page at the end of the document.
    The figure captions must be collected on a separate page at the
    end of the document.  Tables are similar, but their captions go
    with them and not on a separate page.  At the point in the text
    where a figure or table should appear, we need "Insert Figure 1
    about here".

Can anyone tell me how to float all figures, etc. to the end, get each
on a separate page, and collect the captions?  Ideally, LaTeX source
for such a style could still be run through the standard article.sty
to produce a nice-looking document with figures in the text.

Thanks for any help.
