SUMMARY
This guide is for authors who are preparing papers for Geophysical Journal International using
the LATEX 2ε document preparation system and the GJI class file.
Key words: LATEX 2ε – class files: gji.cls – sample text – user guide.
3.2 Key words and Summary Figure 1. An example figure in which space has been left for the artwork.
