I am writing a paper using \documentclass[twocolumn]{svjour3} for a Springer journal in two column format. I want to make abstract in one column since it is required in the journal format. Journal also wants the footenotes related to authors and institutions to be seen. I added the codes before and after I made the change. Using "\twocolumnfalse" trick has made the abstract fit the twocolumns but then the footenotes dissappeared. I check the previous quetions on this issue and observed that some people suggest a solution regarding "\thanks" BUT in my code I DO NOT use "thanks". Instead, I use "affmark" and "affadr" (Since I don't know any other way to write those footenotes in that exact form that the journal asks for). I want my abstract fit in two column and my footenotes not to be dissappeared. Can someone help me with this problem? Is there any other way of writing my footenote exactly like this? If someone can suggest a different way of writing my footenotes using "\thanks" that may also help. This footenote is the exact format that the journal asks for.

This is the code after I make the change:

  • sorry but what do you mean by lose @twocolumnfalse? and how should I exactly add the \footenote and \footetext?
    – esra

  • 1
    You have \begin{@twocolumnfalse} in your code, which is expanded to both a \begingroup and \@twocolumnfalse, while \end{@twocolumnfalse} is expanded as \end@twocolumnfalse (which doesn't exist) and \endgroup. Any \begingroup ... \endgroup will prevent footnotes from working. \footnote expands as both \footnotemark and \footntetext, but you need to put the \footnotetext outside the group. You can lose the [twocolumn] option for svjour3, as \twocolumn takes care of it.

  • @JohnKormylo would it be enough if I use \footenotemark and \footenotetext instead of \affmark and \affadrr? Did you mean this? Or should I add a specific code piece after the \twocolum[]?

    I can't test your code without loading svjour3.cls, which is possible but difficult (assuming I can google the download).

  • Here is the link to the download it is under the "Text Formating" section names as: Latex Macro package(Download): springer.com/journal/13389/submission-guidelines. By the way I would reaaly appreciate your help since I tried everything and still could not solve the problem? The last thing I tried was using only \twocolumn[abstract here] without using @twocolumnfalse, and it worked partially. I mean it worked but it gives the abstract on the next page then. I could not fix that part.

Just for fun. I seriously doubt the journal will let you do this.

  • The footnotes appear just fine for me. Are your packages up to date?
    – John Kormylo
    Dec 27, 2020 at 17:30
  • Oki sorry my mistake. This works perfectly fine. Great work. I am not also sure what the journal wants. You are the only person who could answer this problem. I have just realize that some authors leave it as it is and then the editors would modify the code as they wish to fit the the format. Note sure what to do now:/ Thanks a lot anyway!
