I am following the instructions to submit a paper to JASA. In "II. ONLINE HANDLING OF MANUSCRIPTS " under "C. Preparation for online submission" they write:

Properly prepared manuscript/article file in LaTeX or Word format. Authors who wish to use LaTeX should use the JASA LaTeX package, which is available here: http://acousticalsociety.org/preparinglatex-manuscripts/. (The requirements for a properly prepared manuscript are given further below.) It must be a single stand-alone file. If the author wishes to submit a LaTeX file, the references should be included in the file, not in a separate BibTeX file. Authors should take care to ensure that the submitted manuscript/article file is of reasonable length.

All of their supplementary materials, which can be found here only give examples using BibTex. My paper is also using BibTex. Is there any way to include the references into the tex file? Am I missing something?

    A BibTeX run produces a .bbl file that contains the bibliography environment \begin{thebibliography}...\end{thebibliography} in printable format. Often publishers just want you to paste the contents of the .bbl file into your .tex source at the point where you have the \bibliography call. – moewe Jan 04 '21 at 16:13

    There must be an explanation for this somewhere. Overleaf have something: https://www.overleaf.com/learn/latex/Questions/The_journal_says_%22don't_use_BibTeX;paste_the_contents_of_the.bbl_file_into_the_.tex_file%22._How_do_I_do_this_on_Overleaf%3F, but maybe there is a more graphic explanation here on TeX.SX ... – moewe Jan 04 '21 at 16:13

  • @moewe, care to make this an answer so I can give you the credit? – havakok Jan 04 '21 at 16:19
  • I'd probably close the question as a duplicate of https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/329198/35864, if that would be alright with you. – moewe Jan 04 '21 at 16:20
  • sure. Should I delete or is it better to close it? – havakok Jan 04 '21 at 16:26

    I think duplicates still remain searchable, so it is better to close as a duplicate than to delete the question. – moewe Jan 04 '21 at 16:28
