Rolling your own Document Class : Using LaTeX to keep away from the Dark Side

.
(2006)

Abstract

Document classes in LaTeX provide automation to improve consistency, productivity, and accuracy in creating and maintaining documents, thereby avoiding the inefficiencies of wordprocessors. However, users who want to package their macros or applications as a document class are often put off by the apparent complexity of the sample classes in the standard distribution. This paper describes what the code in the article document class file does and suggests solutions to some of the popular requirements for changes.
