LaTeX Template for the Dialogue Conference

Proceedings of the Dialogue conference are typeset in the Adobe InDesign suite which is not compatible with LaTeX. However, it is possible to convert LaTeX documents to the InDesign format, ICML, using Pandoc. This template aims at following the conference requirements, so you can submit papers in your favourite typesetting system.

Build Status

Deprecated

This template is deprecated. Please follow the official conference paper guidelines at https://www.dialog-21.ru/en/requirements/.

Thanks!

This template is brought to you by the NLPub project. If you found this template useful and would like to support its author, here is the link: https://nlpub.ru/NLPub:Support.

Why are some parts of the document in red or blue?

These colors help the publisher to transfer your content into the final template using InDesign. This is not a mistake and is done intentionally.

Why cannot I use extra packages or modify dialogue.cls?

The conversion process from LaTeX to InDesign is highly error-prone. The available features are strictly limited to provide a stable subset of functionality.

Guidelines

Do...

  • use the dialogue document class
  • make sure that your document compiles with zero errors
  • keep the document layout as simple as possible
  • use BibTeX to format the bibliography
  • run the conversion command on your machine

Do Not...

  • modify dialogue.cls in any way
  • use any packages or features not included in the template
  • use \ref in the document
  • use tabular inside tabular

Conversion

We recommend using the following command for conversion:

pandoc -s -f latex -t icml -o dialogue.icml --bibliography=dialogue.bib --filter pandoc-citeproc --csl=splncs.csl dialogue.tex

This command converts your document dialogue.tex and bibliography dialogue.bib to dialogue.icml. The splncs.csl style is used for bibliography conversion (provided in the repository). Warnings that are related to formulas are OK.

InDesign files are XML documents. Unfortunately, sometimes Pandoc produces non-well-formed XML. Please run the following command to verify this:

xmllint --noout dialogue.icml

If error messages are shown, try modifying the dialogue.icml file in any text editor to ensure that no errors are shown.
