LaTeX document style for ACM SIGCHI conferences

sigchi-alternative

LaTeX document style for ACM SIGCHI conferences.

Adapted from sigchi class previously edited by:

• Michel Beaudouin-Lafon (CHI 2013)
• William Hudson (CHI 2012)
• Jean-Daniel Fekete (CHI 2012)
• Manas Tungare
• Jan O. Borchers
• G.K.M. Tobin
• Olin Shivers
• Kevin B. Theobald

Sigchi class adapted from ARTICLE document style by Ken Traub, Olin Shivers. Excerpts were taken from (Journal Style) esub2acm.cls

For format specification see http://sheridanprinting.com/sigchi/chi.htm (CHI) and http://sheridanprinting.com/sigchi/uist.htm (UIST).

The new class sigchi-alternative makes extensive use of preexisting packages. LaTeX commands are used instead of TeX commands and all code has been grouped and formated more consistently.

Compile MarginTest.tex for a visualization of page margins, column widths and other layout settings.

SIGCHI biblatex style

This repository also contains a custom sigchi style for biblatex. It consists of:

• sigchi.bbx - the bibliography style
• sigchi.cbx - the citation style
• biblatex-sigchi.tex - the package documentation

The sample uses biblatex and this custom style. Instructions on how to revert to the default sigchi bibliography style defined in acm-sigchi.bst are included.
