kapsner / authors-block Goto Github PK

Hi,

First, thank you so much for the nice and helpful extension. It's really cool! I am just wondering why the corresponding option does not work for me with docx files. The equal contribution works and everything is good, but although I put corresponding in the right order

---
title: "Cannot share"
subtitle: "Manuscript draft."
authors:
  - name: Abdullah Abdelaziz
    affiliations:
      - ref: c1
    corresponding: true
  - name: cannot share
    affiliations:
      - ref: u1
      - ref: u2
affiliations:
  - id: c1
    name: xxxx
  - id: u1
    name: xxxxxx
  - id: u2
    name: xxxxxxxxx

filters:
  - authors-block
  - docx-landscape.lua  

format:
  docx: 
      output-file: "my manuscript draft"
  pdf: default
editor: visual
csl: jama.csl
reference-doc: custom-reference-doc.docx
bibliography: references.bib
---

This is how my header looks like.

Thanks

Hello,

Is there a way to indicate an equal contribution for the last authors? From the example, I can see that we could do it for the first authors (the ones that write the papers) but I can't see how to do it for the last authors (the ones that direct the work). I previously so papers indicating that the last two authors directed the work equaly so I think it would be nice to have this feature.

Hi @kapsner,
May I suggest you to add topics/categories in your GitHub repository corresponding field?
Currently, your repository is not really discoverable by search engine, especially GitHub one.

See for examples https://github.com/mcanouil/quarto-animate.

PS: I am using GitHub API to search for new Quarto content to add to the Awesome Quarto list, but your extension did not show up. Your extension was mentioned in a Quarto GitHub Discussion and then suggested to me, see mcanouil/awesome-quarto#255.

Hi,

I wanted to ask about the font size and characteristics for the affiliations. I noticed that affiliations took the same styling as the main text in the docx output. Is there a way to customize this and make it have a specific styling?

Hi, love the extension ! It's been super useful. Today when attempting to use it I found that the Word output of authors-block, notably the institution & corresponding author labels, don't appear when a reference Word doc is provided to Quarto like so:

format:
  docx: 
    reference-doc: reference_doc.docx 

Are there any known workarounds for this?

Minor detail: If a table of contents is rendered, the affiliations are currently below it. For simplicity, however, I would expect the affiliations to be between the author names and (above) the table of contents.

Regardless: Many thanks for this awesome template!

In my document, I am using the more complex data structure for the affiliation field like this:

affiliations:
  - name: Sebastian Rowan
    orcid: 0000-0000-0000-0000
    email: [email protected]
    affiliations:
      - id: unh
        name: University of New Hampshire
        department: Civil Engineering
        city: Durham
        state: NH
        country: USA
        postal-code: 03824

And when rendering the file to docx, the affiliation only shows "University of New Hampshire" like this:

I would prefer to keep the long-form for the affiliations if possible. Is there a way to do this and get them to render properly?

It leaves blank spaces instead of authors names in pdf/latex output.

workaround: revert to quarto 1.2.

Using the example.qmd and simply removing the second and third author (and orcid and equal-contributor: true), the complete header (title + author information) in the rendered documents is missing:

---
title: "Authors-block Example"

authors:
  - name: John Doe
    affiliations:
      - ref: jdct
    corresponding: true
    email: [email protected]


affiliations:
  - id: jdct
    name: John Doe Center for Technology, John Doe University, Doetown, Germany.
