IEEE Latex conference class, add copyright notice

I recently had to submit a paper in IEEE conference format, that required an IEEE copyright notice and publisher ID, the problem I had was that by default, the functionality is removed from any 'conference' class papers, so in order to make this work using the conference class (documentclass[10pt, conference]{IEEEtran}) it is neccessary to remove these 'locks' using the following command:

IEEEoverridecommandlockouts

(I put this just after the documentclass part)

It is then possible to specify the publication id and copy right notice (make sure it is before the maketitle command )as follows:

IEEEpubid{makebox[columnwidth]{hfill 9781-4244-3941-6/09/$25.00~copyright~2009 IEEE} hspace{columnsep}makebox[columnwidth]{Published by the IEEE Computer Society}}

Note: if you leave the 'Published by the IEEE Compueter Society' part blank, then the second column will fill out nicely (and mean more space for writing!).

It is also necessary to use the IEEEpubidadjcol command somewhere in your second column text, which makes the relevant adjustments for the text.

  3. Even using your command it wasn`t working in my tex file. So I put this before \begin{document} and it worked! (http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/53546/thanks-wont-appear-in-ieeetran) - Anderson on Wed Jul 31 2013 11:55:15 GMT+0000 (Coordinated Universal Time)
