v1.4

The skip between authors and affiliations can now be adjusted, both in grouped an ungrouped mode. The setting is called author affiliation skip.

\ResolveAffiliations[author affiliation skip=<dimexpr>]{A. U. Thor}

v1.3

Trim spaces leading to more flexible input

The package now trims spaces around author names after removing affiliation and ORCiD from the input. Previously, the following inputs ... (note the space between name and \affiliation, \orcid)

\author{Firstname Lastname \affiliation{} \orcid{}}

\author{Firstname Lastname
                  \affiliation{}
                  \orcid{}
       }

... would have led to the output Firstname Lastname␣␣, which would lead to errors in the output.

Correct line spacing

This release improves the line spacing in the author block, particularly in grouped mode. Previously, if many authors were output in grouped mode, the line spacing was not correctly adopted from the font settings.

New paragraph layout settings

Author and affiliation names are now no longer output in justified paragraphs (new setting output authors paragraph format)

v1.2

Introduces the option separator between indices as separate from separator between affiliations. The first is the separator for affiliation indices next to author names. The latter is the separator used between affiliations and their indices in the affiliation line.

v1.1

This release introduced the option to display ORCIDs next to author names.

v1.0.4

This release adds the command \CountAuthorsFromAffiliations, which processes a list of author-affiliation-pairs and counts the number of authors. The result is saved in the global variable \g__affiliations_num_authors_int.

v1.0.3

This is a patch release which adds a new feature:

It is now possible to separate authors with \and, which is used by convention in the TeX world.

v1.0.2

This is a minor release which improves two issues:

• The tokens in the affiliations were not assigned their original cat codes, which resulted in the problem that one could not use \', \", and other commands.
• Output of groups is now improved and can be user controlled - they inherit the setting from separator between *.

v1.0.1

Changes

• Fixes a bug in which too much space was created after \ResolveAffiliations when option output in groups=false was set.

v1.0.0

The initial release of langsci-affiliations, a LaTeX3 package to collect and order author-affiliation pairs.
