SCI LaTeX Editing

Overview

Make surgical LaTeX changes without destabilizing the manuscript.

Core principle: small scoped patches beat broad rewrites.

Required Background

Use this strategy even when no project-specific TeX guide exists.

Edit Order

Prefer editing:

one paragraph
one subsection
one section
one sections/*.tex
main.tex only when necessary

Checks

After structural edits, check:

\input{} paths
labels and refs
citation keys and bibliography order
figure/table file paths
package color/style definitions
arXiv path compatibility

Output

exact files changed
compile risk notes
Overleaf/arXiv instructions if user compiles externally

Common Mistakes

Moving files without updating \input.
Fixing prose and restructuring TeX in the same pass.
Leaving local absolute paths in public packages.
Using non-ASCII paths in source package references.
