How to change the font style in \IEEEkeywords [closed]

Question

IEEE papers has \IEEEkeyword command to write the keywords. I used \renewcommand\IEEEkeywordsname{Index Terms} to change that text to Index Terms. But the font of the keywords I obtained is italics and not the normal font.

The expected form is this, Index Terms-words, letters

But what I obtain is this, Index Terms-words, letters

How to obtain normal font instead of italics for all the index terms.

Answer 1

You need to insert \itshape at the end of the IEEEkeywords environment-start:

\documentclass{IEEEtran}% http://ctan.org/pkg/ieeetran
\let\oldIEEEkeywords\IEEEkeywords
\def\IEEEkeywords{\oldIEEEkeywords\itshape\ignorespaces}
\begin{document}
\begin{IEEEkeywords}
words, letters
\end{IEEEkeywords}
\end{document}
