How can I fix this?
Best Answer
Don't load packages that change the formatting, when using
elsarticle
, because the class is intended for submissions to Elsevier and they don't want strange or personalized titles or other elements.In your case, avoid
titling
(and alsoltxfront
which is part of RevTeX).
