I am new to latex and trying to use a conference template. This error is popping up for the \maketitle command and I have tried many things which did no help:
l.72 \maketitle
The control sequence at the end of the top line
of your error message was never \def'ed. If you have
misspelled it (e.g., `\hobx'), type `I' and the correct
spelling (e.g., `I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue,
and I'll forget about whatever was undefined.
Here is what I have in .tex file:
\begin{document}
\maketitle
%===============================================================================
\begin{abstract}
And here is where the .sty file has defined the \maketitle command:
% create title
\providecommand{\maketitle}{}
\renewcommand{\maketitle}{%
\par
\begingroup
\renewcommand{\thefootnote}{\fnsymbol{footnote}}
% for perfect author name centering
\renewcommand{\@makefnmark}{\hbox to \z@{$^{\@thefnmark}$\hss}}
% The footnote-mark was overlapping the footnote-text,
% added the following to fix this problem (MK)
\long\def\@makefntext##1{%
\parindent 1em\noindent
\hbox to 1.8em{\hss $\m@th ^{\@thefnmark}$}##1
}
\thispagestyle{empty}
\@maketitle
\@thanks
\@notice
\endgroup
\let\maketitle\relax
\let\thanks\relax
}
The generated Pdf looks just fine, but the error prevails. Please enlighten me, if you understand what is going on.
