Based off of the sample, I'm looking for an option that would allow me to forgo printing the Abstract with \maketitle
. (i.e. I have a professor asking that I not include an abstract.)
I'm a LaTeX newb, but I did google and search these forums. I found one question here but it was closed because no one was sure what was being asked. I've tried to avoid the pitfalls of that question, so please be gentle. ;-P

Add
\renewcommand{\abstract}[1]{}
to your preamble. (The original definition is\long\def\abstract#1{\long\def\@abstract{#1}}
, and the code snippets that are responsible for typesetting the abstract do so only if\@abstract
is defined.)(Note: I'm assuming that you're not concerned about warnings, but want some kind of "noprint" option without actually having to delete the
\abstract
content.)
